-40°C 🤝 -40°F
Yeah, they kinda relate 🥶.
that's when it starts to get 'cold'. before that, it's just a 'little chilly'.
Found the Scandinavian?
-40 is fucking freezing in C 😂. Should be even worse in F 😂.
-40 c is equal to -40 f it's a bit chilly probably want 3 layers top and bottom there
And a space heater direct right at you 😂.
no, you absolutely do not want a space heater when dealing with cold.
Hm, why? I use one all the time.
can cause you to sweat which will lead to your jackets becoming ineffective leading to hypothermia
Ummm... yeah, you just turn it off if you're hot...
The worst part is that vodka freezes right in the plastic cups. It's not fun to drink vodka with icy mush.
You drink Russian vodka. Made with ethylene glycol. Is antifreeze. No vodka ice!
🤔 🤣... ummm... i've drank wine half frozen wine from a cup at -30C 🤣... not fun, but it kept us warm that night 🤣. too bad we didn't have vodka at 3AM 🤣.
I think we drank like 10L of wine that night 🤣. Vodka would've been more efficient 🤣.
I know this is a joke but as a Minnesotan I think right around -15°F (-26°c) is where it starts to get 'cold'. This is where the air really begins to sting your face and people have issues starting their vehicles.
am a native and lived there most my life. only had problems with my piece-of-shit cars when it got colder than -20F or so. block heater (on a timer) and a newish-battery and they always started, though, even during that record cold snap (-60F).
You mean..
-40°C = (-40-32)/18*10
Kelvin and Celsius are literally the same just offset by 273.15°
Literally the same just different.
Kelvin was developed from Celsius. The only difference is that 0° is based on absolute 0 (because it's logical and constant) rather than the rough freezing point of water (a vague and inconsistent reference point). Every degree change in one unit is exactly the same change in the other.
And the meme is exactly about not having the same 0 point
Except Kelvin aren't degrees (e.g. it's just 273'15K not 273'15°K). But a change of one Kelvin is indeed equivalent to a change of one degree Celsius.
Theyre also not pointing guns at each other in the picture.
Same relationship between Rankine and Fahrenheit.
And 0 Kelvin and 0° Rankine are three same temperature.
In that case I assume it would be 0 Rankine without degrees, too? Because it's an absolute unit like Kelvin.
It's still technically defined based on its relationship to Fahrenheit, just like Kelvin was with Celsius until the 60s.
Kelvin and Rankine are based.
What’s Ra°? Not Reamur (Re°) or Rømer (Rø°)
I think Ra° is an alternate for Rankine
Rankine is based? The same way pound-mol and 1000th of an inch are based?
AT THAT POINT, WHY NOT JUST USE METRIC o_0
I bite my thumb at Rankine, sir.
Because 0 is not a lack of temperature like the measurements. (With the exception of Kelvin)
And Rankin, which is apparently just the Kelvin for Fahrenheit.
🤢
0lbs ≠ 0kg in the absence of gravity.
Sounds funny but really, why would a weight or length measurement start with ≠0?? Like "size of the dick or prince Charles"?
But that argument would go for temperature as well. Yet, here we are with the most commonly used ones having zero as wey more than the "nothing"-level.
Zero comes from experience, at least in Celsius. Its semi-scientifical as water is a pretty big part of our world. For our life and all it is pretty much the turning point, isnt it? But of course it could also be 50 or so, as below is possible
If only they made a meter equal a yard. I'm okay with a bigger yard. Let's do it.
