Aw, they’re bad now? I was looking forward to going back to OnePlus when my current phone dies.

That’s genius. Absolutely evil, but genius.
I’m all for blaming the US (it’s a fun pastime) but can you expand on that transition process? Sounds interesting.
As a Canadian, yes, yes it is.
I’ve never really understood it. My Mom asks me to check her pool’s temperature. “24 degrees”
And she’s confused! “I have no idea what that means! Tell me in normal pool temperature”
But if I told her the outside temperature in Fahrenheit she’d be utterly confused, as would I. Only thing I know about Fahrenheit is that 30 is cold and 100 is very hot.
The pool thing is completely crazy.
I can understand the oven thing though. It’s so hot that it might as well have nothing to do with other everyday temperatures. So if you get ovens and recipes from the United States, I can see why it wouldn’t really be a problem. It’s treated as basically just a power level.
Still I wish we all switched to Celsius. It just feels useful to me to know how far you are from the boiling point of water, for instance.
Want more craziness?
Huh. So I can blame the British for influencing Canada to be fucked up.
Frickin’ temperatures. Fahrenheit for ovens and pools and Celsius for the rest. Why.
Wow that’s a 404 for me. Looks like maybe the lemmy.world instance has made that choice for me.
Thank god I’m protected! I would have to create a new account on another instance to lose that protection, which is, uh, good, because…
Anyway I forgot what I was saying.
