the fact that 20-30 points goes from freezing cold to death and destruction and fire is everything that's wrong with Celsius for weather.

F for weather C for chemistry K for astronomy

FCK one unit of measure.

    Why is that a problem once you know it? I know 0 is kinda cold, 20 is kind warm and 30 is kinda hot.

    Isn't the downvkte button just another way of showing that you disagree?

    It's not supposed to be.

    It's supposed to be for "not relevant or doesn't add value to the discussion".

    You'd think after a decade or so somebody would figure out some system better than upvotes and downvotes that don't mean what everyone assumes they mean. How about a tooltip to explain?

    Even adding a separate 5-star agreement scale next to the up/down arrows would help so I could like upvote for a good contribution and give one star to say I disagree.

    I enjoy rabble rousing C-freaks. I lived in a Celsius country for 3 years (Hong Kong), each degree is too much, decimals for weather is silly.

    Farenheit is so simple, on a scale of 0-100, how fucking hold/cold is it?
