It would be difficult to make a cheap measuring device go up to *the person reading this*

2018-07-27 08:20:48 UTC  

Bone hurting tempuratures

2018-07-27 08:21:36 UTC  

0C = 192.8cµyTP
100C = 263.4cµyTP

2018-07-27 08:21:44 UTC  

it's just a matter of converting the numbers

2018-07-27 08:22:18 UTC  
2018-07-27 08:22:42 UTC  

there's even already handy-dandy conversion formulas

2018-07-27 08:22:48 UTC  

cµyTP = (°C + 273.15) / 1.41683385

2018-07-27 08:22:55 UTC  
2018-07-27 08:22:58 UTC  

cµyTP = (°F + 459.67) / 2.55030092

2018-07-27 08:23:07 UTC  

K = cµyTP × 1.41683385

2018-07-27 08:23:10 UTC  

but why

2018-07-27 08:23:23 UTC  

***science***

2018-07-27 08:23:35 UTC  

***but only scientists need it***

2018-07-27 08:23:58 UTC  

i don't like that we have all these measurements that are cosmically arbitrary

2018-07-27 08:24:37 UTC  

that's just cos u are a cuck

2018-07-27 08:24:37 UTC  

For once i feel obligated ro agree with anime person

2018-07-27 08:24:39 UTC  

distances really piss me off, i want a measurement of distance based on the size of a neutral hydrogen atom

2018-07-27 08:24:45 UTC  

but

2018-07-27 08:24:47 UTC  

WHY

2018-07-27 08:25:18 UTC  

so that we can have a unit of distance that is irreversibly tied to an eternal, unchanging entity

2018-07-27 08:25:19 UTC  

Distance based on time is much better

2018-07-27 08:25:37 UTC  

don't even get me started on time dear god

2018-07-27 08:25:41 UTC  

like the metric system

2018-07-27 08:25:46 UTC  

what the hell are we going to do when we have colonies in space

2018-07-27 08:25:56 UTC  

Starve to death

2018-07-27 08:26:09 UTC  

we'll need a different local time system for each one

2018-07-27 08:26:18 UTC  

We use atomic clocks silly

2018-07-27 08:26:27 UTC  

which will make everything the biggest pain in the ass imaginable unless we have a universal time scale

2018-07-27 08:26:37 UTC  

the only thing different would be night/day

2018-07-27 08:26:46 UTC  

an atomic clock would still have to be based on something

2018-07-27 08:26:52 UTC  

yes seconds

2018-07-27 08:27:02 UTC  

what the hell is a second

2018-07-27 08:27:08 UTC  

what is a second tied to

2018-07-27 08:27:31 UTC  

we can only measure time in arbitrary ways and i lose sleep over it

2018-07-27 08:27:45 UTC  

One second is the time that elapses during 9,192,631,770 (9.192631770 x 10 9 ) cycles of the radiation produced by the transition between two levels of the cesium 133 atom

2018-07-27 08:28:02 UTC  

that's arbitrary as FUCK

2018-07-27 08:28:06 UTC  

not at all

2018-07-27 08:28:11 UTC  

it's a consistent value

2018-07-27 08:29:08 UTC  

if we had a system of measure based on the size of hydrogen atoms we could then create a measure of time based on the speed of light crossing distances (in exact base 10s) of that measure

2018-07-27 08:29:17 UTC  

yes

2018-07-27 08:29:20 UTC  

lightyears
