    Decimals don’t matter for you and you are pushing that to everyone as a way to delegitimize my point.

    I use Celsius and they matter to me. I can and do notice a difference between setting my thermostat to 21.5 vs 22 vs 22.5. You don’t whatever.

    I said I was using Celsius but because I had a complaint you decided I was outside of your accepted user group and my statement was BS.

    Its bullshit.

    Meh I’m about 50/50 4 air conditioners in. Half degrees has not been all that uncommon and it’s up and down arrows to adjust it. I don’t get the handwaving of legitimate points of comtention to make Celsius seem more perfect. Everything has its flaws. It’s completely fine to admit that.

    No this was an airconditioner built for and used in Japan only. It’s only in Celsius. It just uses decimal point options for finer control. I have been in plenty of places that only use Celsius and use decimals especially higher than 20s.

    And still doesn’t change the drastic change between the whole numbers the higher you go vs lower temps.

    Edit: literally my fever thermometer uses decimals to help you get a proper temperature reading between normal and fever.

    I’ve been all over the world. Trust me seeing 21.6 or other decimals is not uncommon you and others are really just pushing hard on the ideas that there is no flaws and none of the quirks of Celsius.

    I literally just set an air conditioner to 20.5°C. I don’t get why lie like this.

    I’m gonna be honest. I love Celsius for the the whole perfect math reasons with calories and water based measurement…

    But the curve on temps is a pain when all the nice temperatures require using a decimal place to decide just how slightly above or below pleasant it is but cold is basically everything from 16°C to -30°C And then decimals really matter when hotter than pleasant temps.

    Whole rounded integers are just so vastly different depending how high or low you are in Celsius.












  • My first printer was a self built reprap from parts from aliexpress in college.

    I then helped fund peachy on kickstarter and a stupid poured resin counterweighted printer called the Phoenix.

    I then had an Geeetech A10M, a Prusa Mk2 and ender 3, as well as one resin printer.

    All I have left is the Prusa mk2 that hasn’t worked right for over a year and doesn’t print anything.

    I would buy a new printer in a heartbeat if I could afford it.

    I definitely have never made back my money. To many dumb purchases and early generation jank all over the place but it was fun. The first thing I ever did with my first hand built printer was make a lithopane of my deceased dog and eventually my grandfather.

    I’ve made so many stupid things and spent so much time on it as a hobby that it filled my days with activities, reason to communicate with others and frustrating nights all alike. Its not for everyone and its not really a good idea but if you have the means or like a hobby of tinkering and building in the modern world there is very little experience like it.

    Yeah. I’ve built an entire library worth of knowledge into my head and a deep love of piecing everything together to extend my understanding of how things are and works… And will take it all to the grave with me cause no one cares and honestly whatever.

    People don’t care. The idea of us being an intelligent and exploring species is a mistake from those of us that are applying it to everyone else. The maybe 10% of us are doomed to be at the whims of the other 90% that just doesn’t care or want to hear it.
