  • Late 80s early 90s there were literal adverts in the classified section of the paper by pirates where you could buy 100s of games for a set sum (very cheap usually). Often you mailed empty disks to them and the money, and they would return it with games. They would also have monthly printed newsletters about new titles.

  • If that is the only place you have seen Christopher Walken, then you seriously need to update yourself on Christopher Walken movies. He is great in everything he is in, and you are missing out on a legend of a man.

  • It is pretty funny how you keep claiming "fahrenheit is the best system for human temperature" countless times. Celsius users then question that, though without claiming celsius is better, it is just something we are used to.

    And then you get all pissy and strawman celsius users as saying the exact thing you have been claiming about fahrenheit this entire thread.

  • But it requires you to be familiar with an arbitrary -20 - 40 scale. Which makes way less sense than a 0-100 scale.

    Your 0-100 scale is just as arbitrary, in fact even more, since it doesn't even cover the daily temperatures huge parts of the global population lives in.

  • It is pretty funny how your supposed completely intuitive human feeling system needs to have all these disclaimers added to it whenever you try to explain it. Perhaps it is only intuitive because you are used to it after all?

  • They aren't. And fahrenheit is not a 0-100 scale. It is just the scale you picked out of it in order to make some kind of sense out of the non-intuitive system which it is.

  • But fahrenheit is not a 0-100 scale. You have just arbitrarily picked out 0-100 because that makes your brain more easily understand the non-intuitive system which is fahrenheit.

  • The thing is that you need to learn celsius if you are doing science, but celsius users don't really need to learn fahrenheit, so this isn't really a problem that comes up for a lot of celsius users.
