Not a member. What happened?
A shitstorm regarding the modding, mods protecting their own and loads of people are getting bans (some permanent) for extremely petty reasons.

Someone got a 2 month ban for pretending to be an insider. That's a longer ban than people get for racism, homophobia etc. btw.

Insidering is serious business.

Mafro can't disclose his sources as he's under an NDA.

Not even any of the usual "history of pRiOr InFrAcTiOnS" that justifies that ban length.

A simple thread about whether people prefer using Celsius or Fahrenheit:
Fahrenheit forever. It actually deals with normal possible temperatures for humans on a range of 0-100 and as such is massively more useful for communicating weather and comfort information. I'm not a water molecule; I'm a person and as a such I care about people specific methods of measurement infinitely more, because I don't especially care about or need to measure/be aware of the relative activity level of a random element which I am not. If I want a scientific approach I'd use Kelvin. Celsius is useless.
If you want to pretend like you boil water by setting a temperature on a stove and then letting it sit there, or freeze water by setting a temperature in a freezer and hoping you got it right, be my guest. I'm going to live in the land of practical reality.
Either way, it's a much widely relevant and therefore much more useful scale to humans, because although I might contain a lot of water, I am not a water molecule.
Ok mate.

My absolute favourite thing is that's EXACTLY what Celcius is. That isn't what Farenheit is at all

Fahrenheit has a really messed up zero point. It doesn't mean anything!! Well, I know it's the freezing point of some weird chemical mixture, but who cares? I care about if there's going to be ice outside, so it should be based on water obviously!
