Freedom degrees. Roughly -13° or 38° if you live in the sane parts of the world.
I’d pick triple digits, mostly because I’ve lived in places that routinely hit 100° in the summer, and I hate shoveling snow.
Single. I don’t much like how weather.
I love the cold, I wanna live someplace cold.
North-west terretories, top tip of scandinavia
Single
Single digits. You can always put more layers on but you can’t take more off than naked.
…right, and therefore triple digits. AlwaysNudeClub rise up
Low temps. My brain boils in high temps. Heat exhaustion too many times. I’d be dead.
Same. I choose somewhere 15 to 18C - Comfortably cool, and I can always put on a sweater. Any warmer than that, and I’d have trouble sleeping at night.
So triple digits Kelvin for me.
I use celsius. Triple digit temperatures would kill me.
But after a quick conversion, still single digit. Its pretty standard winter temperature just a little bit inland from where i live. I like it best between -15 and -5 °C (5 - 23F)
Single digits. I love shoveling snow, and cold weather makes me feel alive.
Triple digits.
But I’mma use KelvinGranted. 100k. Or 900k. Both are lethal, tbh
I’ll take both.
One on each side of my house.Now to by a few kilotons of ceramic tiles and zinc and copper wires.
It is very hard to grow food outdoors in either case. Underground the temperature is fairly stable at about 30+°F. If that’s allowed, and I can manage how to grow food underground, then from experience I know I can easily survive 9°F and spend a LOT more time outdoors than at 100°F
This is why you can’t have rational conversations with Americans.
Single digits, you can always put on another layer.
Triple digit heat is miserable.
Single digits, 100%.
Single digits range from -9F to 9F. Triple digits start at 100F, and can go way the fuck up from there. (And with climate change, they will!) Once you start approaching triple digits, you have to worry about humidity, because you can easily hit a combination that’s literally too hot to live.
Is -9F unpleasant? Sure. But you can layer clothing, and that will keep you comfortable. Death Valley has hit >130F, and when that happens people die, even if they drink gallons of water and stay in the shade.
I like the point about climate change, if you could trick the genie into agreeing that once you set up your new home you get to stay there. Then pick a spot on the cusp of frigidity. So it will gradually get into the double digits at least.
Currently doing exactly that. My partner and I just bought a house and a few hundred acres in northern Maine, and will be moving in less than two months. Yeah, winters are cold and long, and yeah, the mosquitos and blackflies suck, but triple digit heat is really rare up there.
Depends. If we’re talking 100 degrees and no humidity? I could probably do that. The misery doesn’t really set in until 110. 10 minutes outside below freezing feels like knives.
Single as I would die immediately at 100°C
Same as 9C is quite palatable.
Celcius or…?
Kelvin I guess.
