I meant for winter.
23/26 in summer (home/away), 18/22/20 in winter (away/home/asleep)
sotolf@rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam you sleep that warm? I usually turn off all heat in the room when sleeping, so I'm often down to single degree temperatures hen sleeping, I sleep better when the room isn't warm for some reason.
That (65°F) is a pretty cold sleeper for Texas.

I honestly have no idea what people here set their thermostats to; everything is in Freedom Units™©®.
Fahrenheit is the only imperial unit I'm a fan of. I think it's just a more sensible scale for temperatures within the range that humans experience.
For anything scientific/engineering, Celcius and Kelvin all the way.
@rl_dane @sotolf @dm @roguefoam
Why, though? The "32 as freezing" thing just makes zero sense.
With Celcius 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling, the two temperatures that are typically the ones that matter the most to humans. ;)
Because 0 is heckin' cold and 100 is heckin' hot.
In Celcius, 0 is pretty cold, and 100 is DEAD, EVER SO DEAD.
I think Fahrenheit makes much more sense for climate-related applications.
@rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam and then you ant to cook, work with steel or talk with someone outside your country and you sound like a dork :p
Not worried about sounding like a dork, but I did say elsewhere that I thought Fahrenheit was better in the context of weather, only.
But why is Celsius better for working with steel? Steel doesn't have state changes on any easily-memorized numbers in celcius, does it?
I do think celcius should he required for all science and engineering, though
@rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam so why would you have two different systems and have to convert between them? that makes no sense to me.
🪐@ericjmorey @rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam not really, all countries except a few use celsius, that's not analogous at all.
Next time you visit the US, insist on only reading and communicating with Celsius and you'll see how the analogy works.
@ericjmorey @rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam as I said before it's not analogous to languages since almost every country has there own language, it's not the case that all people speak english except a small numbers of people that refuse to communicate in anything else than coptic.
I'm simply using the normal scale that's being used around me. It's effortless for me to use Fahrenheit, I'd have to put effort into using exclusively Celsius.
@ericjmorey @rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam when the fuck did I ever say you should stop putting words in my mouth...
I'm going to disengage now, because there is a clear breakdown in my communication which is bothering you. Sorry to have upset you. This topic isn't worth any sort of aggravation. My apologies.
@ericjmorey @rl_dane @amin @dm @roguefoam you keep putting words in my mouth that I never said, that's not communication breakdown, that is being deceitful on purpose, If it would be communication and not some "game" you're trying to win you'd tell me you misunderstood the conversation rather than using hostile power tactics. And this is just another one, rather than trying to communicate you lay blame and leave.
I apologized and didn't lay blame on you. Please respect my desire to disengage.
@ericjmorey you didn't apologize, you said there was a breakdown in conversation, no there was not, you where claiming I said things I never did, you don't get to just run away like you did nothing wrong, feel free to block me if you can't tackle actually being put on the spot, an apology only has value if
1 it is sincere
2 it actually says what it's referring to
3 it's not filled with more power plays
if you don't mean it, just don't apologise, that's way more honest, and is something I can actually respect rather than something fake. @rl_dane and @amin knows this, and when they know they aren't doing something bad or that I'm being just slightly annoyed about it they just don't and let me cook because in the end it doesn't matter, the thing is an apology is not just something one throws away to get someone off their back it's something that should have value, it's not worth it for me to say sorry if I'm not and will continue on doing something, then it's just hot air.
