Ask Lemmy

Then I whipped it out and said, yeah baby, it's 200 long...

Fahrenheit for temperature until the day I die. The rest I don’t really care, the mental conversions are easy to get close enough. But F for temp as a human being is vastly superior

Fahrenheit for temp, metric for everything else. Base 10 system is just easier.

What's the freezing point and boiling point in Fahrenheit?

I prefer metric for everything but indoor/outdoor temperature. Fahrenheit is based on human comfort ranges and feels more precise when used for that

I prefer cups

Metric by far for most things. But for air temperature, Fahrenheit reigns supreme. I will die in that hill with you. Celsius is not granular enough.

And for the speeds used by and distances traveled by cars I do prefer miles per hour over kilometers per hour. I lived with kph in another country and just never cared for it for long distance or higher speeds. If I had to do math problems and getting feet or inches uninvolved, then fuck all that, but as a measure of travel I do prefer them.

But I love metric for most everything else. So clean and efficient.

In the light of all the mayhem that their president is causing, it is great to see US Americans hone in on the topics that really count.
