How hard is it to add c or f to the end of a tempreture

How the hell are people supposed to know if you are using celsius or fahrenheit

    Yeah the first one you can get context from the current weather, but the second is the one that lacks any context without additional conversation. You know what provides the context easier? Saying Celsius of Fahrenheit.

        It is incredibly tough to have conversations with Americans who think local means their units yes.

        They don’t even realize they do it, it’s 22c where they are, so that’s what they refer to, but back home they use their local units there. Both are local, they aren’t changing anything like a deranged lunatic. They just fuck it up since they never denote units ever.

        Simple concept really.
