I don't manage to see your point. If the point is "you can't live in places which are hotter the average body temp", then should I point you towards Australasia? Also, in my last apartment, I didn't have a sauna, but I did have a kitchen that was constantly above 40 and topped out my 52c meter in my kitchen.
Only an American things measuring things in average horse blood temperature vs when water boils at sealevel is a "common use scale".
A "common" use scale for you less metrically abled; "fucking freezing", "freezing", "cold", "cool", "okay", "a bit warm" "too hot" "fucking scorching".
You mean the hottest ambient temperature measured not from direct sunlight. Yeah, maybe. Still a bit more than our body temp, no?
Yeah, but 100c doesn't. It's always the temperature at which pure water boils at sea level.
Sure yeah, you sound like a guy who might have a problem like that. Luckily for you, kettles don't actually have thermostats set to 100c. They shut off when the water is boiling, despite the temperature. So people like you have been accounted for, rest assured. Nor will you be needing to make any thermometers either.
So you microwave shit and then think temp doesn't matter? I don't really "appliances". Is a grater an appliance? A manual one? Knives a few pans, ingredients. Thermometer. Perhaps if you've actually been doing a dish for 20 years perfectly you can forget about but it but it's an absolute must for most kitchen professionals; good measuring instruments. A scale and a thermometer, mainly. Don't really need anything else. Don't even need that to cook, obviously. But because of the "quirks of your appliance", you probe your meat, to meet the right temp. Damn I made myself hungry. Well I got some moose in the freezer.
What's way more important in cooking is actually the measuring than thinking you can just throw it together and wait until it turns whatever the description wants. If you want it good, you'll measure it to the gram and use the correct temp. Which is a bit above our body temp again, but guess "cooking" isn't included in "common use scale"?
☝️😬 Metric-stans when you suggest a theoretical tweak to Centigrade that makes it align closer with human-scale temps while preserving the decimal nature.
My main point is that we spend 90% of our lives wandering around in a fairly narrow range of temperatures. Every day we care about how we should dress or what precipitation to expect or what the high/low might be overnight or checking our apartment thermostat...
The general population only spends a fraction of that time caring about the temperature of anything else (look at a recipe->plug in the baking temp->move on). In a universe where we spent all our time measuring astrological bodies I would probably be arguing for the scale to be normalized around 100ºSol.
I boil water probably 2x per day and I have never once cared about the actual temperature of that reaction. If I dunk my hand in water at 85ºC or 99ºC its gonna hurt like fuck either way. A scale based around horse blood would probably be more tangible because I can actually tell when the mammal blood in my meat-sack body is feeling a few degrees cold/warm.
Stapling a scale solely to pure, scientific, idealized, elemental reactions is silly Enlightenment dogma. Unless we plan on using my theoretical scale for millions of years of human evolution, average body temp is nearly as constant.
So you just never cook anything? Because if you cook, your scale is longer. You have to heat your oven to 350+ degrees, whereas I'm just putting it to 180. So the scale is actually "aligned closer with human-scale temps" whatever your brainfart can be interpreted to mean.
You do. You. Just like you think your brainfart is in anyway an improvement instead of just silly rambling without any sense whatsoever.
Because you don't live in Peru or the bottom of the sea, so you don't have to, because you know it's always pretty much exactly 100 for you.
A person with a stroke could've written your comment and it would be none the better.
Not one of your arguments holds any water; Centrigrade is a smaller scale, and a more logical one. Standing naked outside, most people would have a fairly good guess on when it's near or below 0c. Or as English actually says "freezing." You couldn't even tell 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Literally most people in the world have never even experienced such a temperature. I have. I've also experienced -40 (where they meet.)
How many days a year do you spend in 0f?
Because in my country being below zero is more common than not. Both C and F, moreso C though, as "it's closer to a human scale".
So F is wider, cooking temps are double that of anything in double digits, no-one can even tell where 0f is and 100f is very much not close to the warmest things we handle in our daily lives.
0-100c is quite simple. Over or under, don't touch with bare skin. (For non cooks stay below 60c though or you'll burn yourself)
But I don't need to argue. The works decided long ago.
