I thought Germany has had this for over a decade now. Or am I being mistaken?

I’ll be the counterpart and just say it right there. I’m the Mr. Frodo on most parties. But I aspire to be the Gandalf on some! :)
No, it’s not. I’m people and I don’t feel like Fahrenheit. Lower than 10°C is cold, lower than 0°C is freezing (quite literally) and warmer than 30°C is too hot. See? Easy to remember numbers. Almost as if people feel numbers they’re used to.
You mean potential danger like ice forming on the streets? Well, too bad we don’t have an easy to remember number for that… /s
So, what you’re saying is that body temperature in Fahrenheit is also a completely random number?
Seriously, these are amazing halfling names for my PnP campaigns. I’m so gonna steal this!

Plus not everyone here is American. I’m so thankful that here in Germany these notifications only get used for catastrophic events (which is never) or the yeary test that got postponed 3 times in a row, lol.
People like you make me want that feature where you can’t see replies with more than 10 downvotes over upvotes. God, I lost so many braincells reading about your idiotic opinions and your inability to accept reality…
Wie wär’s damit? Es gibt kein ich in Gruppe. Wohl aber in Wichser!
I assumed you meant the entire quoted paragraph including the part about the EU. Therefore my bad.
Nothing. I just live in the EU and am very happy about that fact. ¯\_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯
Not for me :)
Fahrenheit was invented at a hospital for identifying patients outside of the normal range…
0°F is outside the normal human temperature range? No shit!
You’re talking a bunch of bullcrap! Fahrenheit was developed by a German Scientist and he just chose two measurements that were halfway decent to reproduce. That’s all there is to it. Got nothing to do with hospitals.
Why compare it to 40°? Because I know what 40° feels like because I’ve been living in a civilized country with a civilized measurement system all my life. I can tell you that 65° is too hot, because I make my tea with 70° to 80° hot water. Therefore just before that will probably be too hot for my skin.
In the end, there is no objectively better system when it comes to day to day temperatures. But there is one when it comes to science, reliability and universality and that is Celsius.
All international science uses metric and slowly but surely the resistance amongst US universities melts away and they switch to metric as well. Give it another one or two generations and we’ll finally be rid of the outdated and arbitrary imperial system!
Ich hab’ Geoökologie studiert, da saßen in der Vorlesung mehr Frauen mit Achselhaaren als Männer mit Schuhen.
Wo ist das Lemmy-Äquivalent zu r/BrandNewSentence? :D
Korrekt. Und jetzt bekommst du Gegenwind, weil deine Meinung scheiße ist. Dafür ist die Kommentarfunktion schließlich da.
Freie Meinungsäußerung bedeutet, dass du von dir geben darfst, was du willst. Es bedeutet aber nicht, dass wir uns deinen verbalen Abfall auch anhören müssen. Erst recht nicht kommentarlos!
Wieso Argument? Ich sage nur die Wahrheit. Wenn dir das nicht gefällt, dass ich das so nenne, ist das dein Problem!
Ah, das ist also der Abschaumkommentar, von dem alle reden. Interessant…
Quite a few people have commented about possible societal models for such a community. So I’ll extend this by adding some thoughts about specific environmental challenges.
One would assume that the conditions in the lower levels are not very nice, so maybe rampant drug usage could be a thing. Some mongrels might be in pain due to the procedure and abuse pain killers. Others may just want to escape reality. Someone has to supply these. Maybe they’re a misguided individual who wants to help their peers, maybe they’re a stone cold profiteer who will make for an amazing miniboss. Who knows?
Another important factor is food. Mushrooms grow in dark places and could make up a lot of the diet of the mongrel folk. Or a former botanist could experiment with plants that grow under these conditions. Maybe there’s even some animal husbandry going on. Or if you want there to be a darker twist, cannibalism is always an option. Maybe it’s even part of their society. Being chosen to be the next meal is a great honor.
Lastly, what do the mongrels do for fun? Do they enjoy pit fights?If so, the players could take the wrong way into the arena room and face a crowd of cheering mongrels and some tough opposing fighters. Are there storytellers who remember some fragments of their human lives? Perhaps even some trash collectors who are willing to sell their strange goods even to outsiders?
