I don't get it. Why does the rest of the world use Celsius? It doesn't make sense.
We use Fahrenheit and not Celsius because a 0-100 scale of measuring temperature makes a lot more sense to a human. We know that 0 is really fucking cold and 100 is really fucking hot, which makes sense. Celsius, however, is just about how water responds to temperature, and makes no sense when applied to humans. Fahrenheit is for people, Celsius is for water. And i am a people not a water

Fahrenheit is the more accurate measurement.
I know exactly what 50º feels like. Same with 60º - 110º. With Celsius, there's no telling. When it's 20º out is that cold or fucking hot? Who fucking knows?!?!
How can Euros live like that? It's a fucking wreck. Fuck Celsius. It's only useful for boiling and freezing water at sea level. Otherwise it's just retarded.
>>67581250
>"They both measure the same thing (temperature!), but use different numbers: Boiling water (at normal pressure) measures 100° in Celsius, but 212° in Fahrenheit. And as water freezes it measures 0° in Celsius, but 32° in Fahrenheit."
Stupid fucking Yank Fahrenheit losers. I hated living in your faggot country. Celsius > Fagrenheit all day SENPAI.
Celsius is best. How can you tell the differeNce between 70 and 75 degrees. It's so stupid. There's to much space to move.
-30 to + 30 is excellent.
0 is getting into spring. 5 is snow melting slowly. 10 is snow melting quick and you can wear a spring jacket and maybe not even need gloves. 15 is getting into shorts weather. 20 is t shirt. 25 is get on the dam beach. 30 is God damn it's hot get the sun screen. 35 is holy fuck. 40 is scorcher.
-5 is ok. -10 is getting colder. Windchill gets bad. -15 is getting to be annoying. -20 is cold. -25 is kill zone. -30 is fuck this I'm staying in car won't start. -35 is hunker down next to fire.

Have you considered that people who grew up with Celsius feel the same way about Fahrenheit? I can imagine what any Celsius temperature is because I'm familiar with what they mean, but I can't do the same with Fahrenheit because I didn't grow up with it.
From a science standpoint Celsius is superior because it has a solid reference point and conversion ratio. For usability there's no difference beyond what you're used to using.

C is good because it's based around water, you now the thing that covers 2/3 of the planet?
roughly speaking, 0 and below is freezing and 100 is boiling.
easy for anyone to remember but can still be used in industry just fine.
Isn't it supposed to be 32-212 is 180 which is a lot easier to divide than 100? Fuck base 10. And isn't water freezing set to 32F because sea water (salt water) is supposed to freeze at 0F? Makes fucking sense to me.

I never understood the appeal of F.

With C it's easy. Stick some ice cubes in water. BAM, you've got your 0.
Boil some water, BAM you've got your 100.
With fahrenheit it's like find someone with a fever to get 100 and find someone dead to get 0.
How is that reproducible at all?
>>67585664
Metric is standard retard. Just because you call a pile of shit a rose doesn't make your mother's son a rose.
Metric is sometimes superior but really we'd be best served by a more anthropocentric base-10 system. The length of the meter is completely alien to human beings, we should use something like 1/5 or 1/10 of the average human height as the base unit.

Correction, it's alien to americans because you have been brought up on arbitrary measurements.
The only reason you are comfortable with imperial measurements is that you use them daily. If you switched to the superior logical way of doing things the imperial system would seem alien.
Example. How much does a gallon weigh?
1 liter is 1 kilo.
100 grams of water is 100 ml.

Obviously it would be based on the archetypal adult white male. The system retains all the precision and accuracy of metric but gains the everyday utility of anthropocentrism. Of course average height is just one example (whih has additional political and ideological benefit; eugenics), but I'm sure there are many others that are far more human than the almost totally arbitrary foot and meter.

If you're basing it off a purely biological thing then your """" standard"""" of measurement will change over time. Have fun doing science with constantly changing lengths.

>>67584441

The standard is not subject to change and human beings themselves will not deviate because it is based on an archetypal ideal, one which is hopefully pursued by eugenic agencies.
>>67586277
>relying on a system that needs manual calibration and constant checks to determine temperature
Jesus, really?
If the imperial system is superior why to you use a base 10 system for money.
Wouldn't it be better to get rid of all those 'complicated' 1, 10 and 100 dollar notes and replace it with 'simple' imperial system notes.
12 cents could be a dollar.
Dollars could only come in 3 dollar bills.
And the only large bill could be a 1760 dollar bill.
That would make so much more sense because people understand those measurements much better.

Clearly it's easy to interpret the temperature of the weather using a scale one grows up with. However, in terms of weather temperature (which that and cooking is basically the only thing most people use temperature for), Fahrenheit is clearly superior, because a non-native user will easily be able to learn the scale for that purpose
>0=really cold

>50=not really cold or hot

There you go eurobros, you can use Fahrenheit for understanding the temp outside.
>>67591421
So why can't we just use Fahrenheit for general temperature, like weather, and Celsius for specific scientific measurements.
>>67591968
isn't that what happens. I never do scientific measurements, like most people. I'm pretty sure scientists use kelvin.
The real question is why anyone uses celsius. It's sub-par both for everyday temperature measures (except maybe for cooking, and even then only if you're boiling water) and scientific ones.
