Not all crypto is the same. ZCASH uses an encrypted ledger. Monero combines transactions and redistributes to obfuscate.

Haha if you go back, Meal Deals are addictive. They look like cheap gas station sandwiches, but they’re quality ingredients with good fresh bread. Combos we don’t get here like cheese and onion are just a very different thing than you would expect.

Because my partner uses C. The constant jump scares from temps is annoying 😀

Separate from that, I use temps for what to wear, so exactness is less important to me. In truth AQI and humidity are much more important metrics to me.

Plus:

• Equipment temps are always in C
• Using C is a gateway to metric use
• Devices built for C are just… better. Example: Any washing machine for C has the temperatures listed on the settings vs the ever so useful “warm” or “colors”
• Kettle boils when it hits 3 digits. More fun.

So, lots of ancillary reasons I guess, vs any one direct reason.

I’m geniunly curious why you are getting down voted. The “propaganda” word choice is clearly part of the joke.

I mean, I wish we used C instead of F, but this take is still a whoosh.

But did you get a Meal Deal?

When it’s cold all the time you adapt (not your body, your behaviors). For instance, when I am outside, I’m moving and working my body, and generally within 10-15 minutes I’m stripping off a layer or two already. People don’t typically stand around in this cold unless they have to.

Even with the ice cream, it was after a ridge hike, and we stood outside for about 15 minutes. After that amount of time your core temp lowers and you start to feel the cold, so you either get moving or get inside. But when I arrived I would have been happy in a T-shirt.

This is the Lemmyest of Lemmy posts.

The one thing they left out was school buses. Schools did let out early, but too late, so the traffic from the buses and parents melted the first layer of snow, with no plowing or salting. So it refroze into sheets of ice before people left work.

Note: I now live in a place so cold that this week I hiked in -6F and had ice cream outside at 13F. 😃

I went on a hike this weekend in -7F. And last week I had ice cream outside in 13F.
