1st time i watched a baking recipe in YouTube: Woman says, now you bake at 350 degrees. And i was, what kind of oven has she? Mine goes only up to 250… 😂
1000+: Melts metal, like go wild, that’s about where off the chart starts
👍
-20: Real cold
0: Water freezes, real useful if you need to know that one in your daily life and “32” is too hard to remember
30: Real hot (for some fucking reason)
90: Low bake
150: Medium bake
230: High bake
600+: Melts metal
😢
It’s like the exact opposite of distance units. Normally you look at the metric ones and say “thank god! It just makes sense. It’s all tens and it’s logical” and then the imperial is all wacky numbers.
With Fahrenheit you can say, “How is it outside?” “50s” / “60s” / “70s” / “80s” and it’s instantly a comprehensible answer. Maybe “low 70s” “mid 70s” if you want to be precise and you mean at an exact particular time of day. Meanwhile, the Celsius weather channels are over here putting decimals in their temperature predictions because the units are too unwieldy to even tell people what temperature it’s going to be if they have perfect integer precision. Of course, three significant digits is way too many, so they’re half making up nonsense for the one-tenths place, but they have to do it anyway. Why do they have to? Because they’re using Celsius, like a bunch of chumps.
you can’t touch metal with your bare hands anymore: -5c 23f
water outside freezes, water in pipes freezes destroying your pipes, roads freeze over making you fall and crash, all potentially causing thousands of damages: 0c, 32f. Kinda important for everything.
spring/autumn weather. Minimum ambient temp for 200tw tires. 10c, 50f
—subjective temps range, few degrees here there doesn’t matter as there is basically no practical reason and every unit will have people memorize the ranges of outside weather anyway—
Nice summer weather 20c, 68 f
Warm summer weather 25c, 77f,
hot summer weather 30c, 86f
–end of pointless argument zone, continuation of pointed pointless argument zone where you remember random numbers on the scale for both temps—
yeast likes to bloom here: 40c 104f
steak is rare 50c, 120f
steak is medium done, fish is done and unpleasant sauna 60c, 140f,
pork is cooked 70c,
chicken and pork is cooked 75c, 165f
chicken is ruined, start of espresso temperature range and bread is done. Also you can admit you enjoy sauna here and not be outcast: 90c 194f
water changes into steam here, kinda important for literally everything. 100c, 212f
your coolant temps are fine also nice sauna: 110c, 230f
last warning for coolant temps also weak steam for milk frothing here. Also some people like sauna here too: 120c, 248f,
decent steam for frothing milk 140c, google your own farenheit since not a single espresso machine uses fantasy units.
From this list I realized it does not matter whether you use farenheit or real units, since all you do is:
find important numbers
fudge them a bit so its rounded
waste your brain on memorizing them or write them up.
Only practical difference other than people being used to one or another is that celcius plays well with every other unit of measurement and comes from the two most important temperatures of the most important substance for life on earth. That makes it more useful for everyone as even the most basic of no brain manual labours need to sometimes convert units.
I’ll just set my oven to “real hot times four” then.

Celsius is so unintuitive. And I just don’t get Fahrenheit…
I think Delisle degrees makes more sense
Anyways it is 180 degrees outside. When it goes all the way to 112 degrees I will definitely wear shorts.
176: real cold
93: real hot
10: low bake
-115: Medium bake
… Etc
The rest just follow the intuitive logic.
See now you’re talking sense
