Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?

      I mean I don’t really care what temperature is based on but exactly what does 77 degrees exactly refer to in that it is better or worse than any other number?

        It’s not about learning or not. It’s about 1 system being fundamentally less suited for the task. You wouldn’t argue that we should all be using kelvin. I mean, you could argue that, but you wouldn’t be right.

            Not for human centered climate, where 0-100F is a very convenient set of human centric temperatures. 0 is really cold, 100 is really hot

              You are talking purely out of ignorance. The majority of the population on Earth are getting on just fine using celsius with none of the problems you claim to exist.

              Also “really cold” and “really hot” are purely subjective terms which varies a lot from person to person and from location to location.

                  Are you water? When is 100C ever relevant for you day to day?

                  Ahahah… When does water freeze or boil? At 0° and 100° Celsius. Much more convenient to remember those degrees rather than the corresponding Fahrenheit.

                  But it’s obvious you’re trolling. I, mean, I hope so otherwise it’s sad. Because only a moron who has never cooked would ask that.

                    How is the temperature that water boils (at standard pressure mind you) relevant to you? How is knowing that number important in your day to day life?

                  Important when your cooking. Something I do nearly every day. Rather important if I want to determine is something will burn me.

                  What is the temp in f where you are at risk of burns? I can guess in c without having to look it up.
