To which temperature do you heat your (living) room*?

  • the room you use most while you are at home and not sleeping
  • 2nd, improved poll because first one was only 1 day unintendedly
  • please round decimals (for Celsius °C see very first poll above)
  • pls boost for a better turnout :BoostOK:

Quantic Dream Collection (4 jogos) por R$ 35,33 (86% Off) na Steam

Abaixo, preços dos jogos para comprar separadamente:

- Detroit: Become Human R$ 23,99 (80% Off);
- Beyond: Two Souls R$ 5,99 (90% Off);
- Heavy Rain R$ 5,99 (90% Off); e
- Fahrenheit: Indigo Profecy Remastered R$ 3,29 (90% Off).

Destes, testei apenas o Demo de Detroit: Become Human, tem uma ambientação puxada para o cyberpunk, lembrando jogos como Deus Ex e séries como Almost Human. Esses jogos, em geral, parecem muito bons e os preços excelentes. Só fica a ressalva de que são extremamente cinemáticos, soando mais como um filme interativo do que um jogo, às vezes.

the bloke who designed the eponymous #Fahrenheit system later DIED! 😱

ergo, clearly the #Celsius system is not only better, but safer! 💯✅👍

Disclaimer: Fahrenheit is literally the only Imp unit that makes any sense to me, and only for colloquial/weather use.

To me, it's a simple matter of optimizing the usable space and resolution of the scale.

Also, a large part of it has to do with the weather where I live:

The temperature scale here goes from about 10F/-12C to about 105F/40C most years. Rarely ever any colder or hotter than those two extremes.

That means that a two-digit Fahrenheit temperature covers nearly the entire gamut of temperatures I encounter here.

With Celsius, not only do I have to use a negative sign for a few months out of the year, but more than the entire top half of the 2-digit number range is irrelevant to me.

If you think like an 8-bit programmer (but using decimal), #Fahrenheit just makes more sense.

Now of course, if I lived in Antarctica or Iraq, that would be a different matter.

But simply put, if I were to take the 90th percentile of temperature ranges for the area I live in, and number that zero to 100 for my imaginary temperature scale, that looks a LOT more like Fahrenheit to me than Celsius, and would look more like Fahrenheit for most of the Earth.

P.S., proof of our weather range from over 13 months of weather logging:

Documents $ cat weatherlog* |grep -oE "in $city: [0-9]+" |tr -dc "0-9\n" |sort -n |(head -1; tail -1)

I've been spitting the output of ansiweather (or some other CLI weather program, I forget which) into a file on my little Raspberry Pi for over a year now.

Now, I have lovely data.

(DERP, forgot about triple-digit temperatures XD)

All of the days with sub-freezing temperatures* in my city in 2025:

Documents $ grep -E "Weather in $cityname: (-[0-9]+|3[10]|[21][0-9]|[0-9]) " weatherlog-2025.txt |cut -c 5-10 |uniq

* No, beloved #European friends, I will not apologize for using #Fahrenheit. It is one of the very rare times I prefer the idiotic 'murican way of doing things.
