Most Americans thinking in Fahrenheit are gonna think this doesn't look so bad.

Just multiply by 9/5 and add 32 and the horror becomes apparent.

EDIT: added rest of formula because I'm an idiot

Don't forget to add 32 afterwards

[–] slingstone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

And right there, that's why I should look things up before I open my mouth. I remembered the 9/5, and forgot the last part.

I usually just multiply by 2, subtract 10%, and then add 32. Usually easier than 9/5 and gives same result.

Yeah 50 degrees still seems kind of chilly

50 is "cook an egg on the hood of your car" weather, lol.

To me, 72 degrees is standard room temperature.
