      Not at all. I find Celsius much more intuitive but I’m not trying to argue that that is universally true.

        You’re right, Rankine is clearly the best.

        (Anyone actually know what Rankine even is outside something ddg told me exists?)

          Mechanical engineer from a power plant here. Rankine is the best, can confirm. Room temp is like 530 degrees. Now that makes sense.

            God I love it when I walk inside when its hot and the temperature is just under 530. The best feeling ever.

              You made it sound so nice I set my thermostat at 530 too. The solder melted out of my TV and the magazines on the coffee table spontaneously ignited. On the plus side I can cook a pizza in the living room now instead of getting up to go to the kitchen.
