0 Celsius: Water freezes
0 Kelvin: Absolute zero

0 Fahrenheit:

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 15 hours ago

0F = colder than frozen water, but warmer than absolute 0.

~-40 C = -40 F. Although Metric>>>>imperial.

0°F is the warmest allowed temperature for freezing food in the service industry. We measure with Celsius here so I only recently found out that -18°C = -0.4°F which is just about 0°F. I was looking at some cases of food we store in the freezer and noticed it said “store at -18°C (0°F) or colder”. I doubt that’s the actual reason for 0°F being what it is, but it is a practical use case for that temperature.

Celsius died in 1744, but according to Fahrenheit, that will only happen in 3171.

That explain why Trump think 15 years old is okay, because he thought they're 59!

There we go, these are the new instructions for MAGA on how to defend pedophiles. Well done, we did it guys, let's wrap up! Woop woop!

[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well it's not like they were going to do it themselves.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Exactly. That's what the meme from the other day was about.

The past thing MAGAts will embrace is the fucking metric system. The first thing is apparently children.

Tycho Brahe died because it was impolite to go to the bathroom during a banquet, so his bladder burst.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 3 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

The night before he died, he suffered from a delirium during which he was frequently heard to exclaim that he hoped he would not seem to have lived in vain.

Poor guy died of a UTI because he was too polite.

He's Scandinavian allright.
