▲ 45 ▼ If you had to live the rest of your life in single or triple digit temperatures F° (-13 or 38 C°)which would you choose? (sh.itjust.works) submitted 1 year ago by ephrin@sh.itjust.works to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml 67 comments fedilink hide all child comments Freedom degrees. Roughly -13° or 38° if you live in the sane parts of the world. I’d pick triple digits, mostly because I’ve lived in places that routinely hit 100° in the summer, and I hate shoveling snow.

I mean, I'm a USian so I knew what you meant by "freedom degrees" but I don't think it's fair to act like everyone in the world who might see this post would know that phrase means Fahrenheit. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] ephrin@sh.itjust.works [S] 3 points 1 year ago I mean… I guess?

It's funny how everyone else seemed to figure it out. Let's use our child brain for a minute so hopefully I can help you understand this. Let's assume that the initial post was in celcius. Single digits is cool and livable. What about triple digits? Do you think that living at triple digits celcius is even a viable option? Did you really need someone to identify the unit of measure for you to understand the question? Your pedantry makes you look like an idiot that has no critical thinking ability. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment load more comments (1 reply)
