Pretty sure nobody uses a paper and pencil anymore. if somebody feels like doing the calculations/math, they probably use a calculator but I just cheat and use the Google conversions thing

Some of us can still do it in our heads without a calculator or pencil and paper. It is good mental exercise.

OMG really!?

I’ve always sucked at math though and even when they used to make us write it out and/or when I was still doing math regularly, I was always awful at it and took forever or just couldn’t haha I actually had a thing that said I could use a calculator for tests and stuff even most people couldn’t/weren’t supposed cause it took me so long and I couldn’t do it without one and yeah. I even count with my fingers sometimes, even still

It's okay. You can persist in having to get out a paper and pencil every time you want to read a foreign study involving temperatures.


There are numbers for everything. What makes Fahrenheit the standard? Why isn't there a smaller unit called the Pickerel or something that we use that's equivalent to 3/4 of a degree in the Fahrenheit? If we did, then Fahrenheit would seem the faulty system; the imprecise. It's a matter of perspective, not precision.

Paper what are you talking about? I have a Google phone.
I don't even have to type. I can just say hey Google find me this and it does it.

Neither system is any better than the other. It is where you live and what you were raised with that makes either one the favorite for you. My only problem is that when a person is posting in a forum where both systems are used, they should designate what unit they are using. For example -5°F (-20.56°C) is a whole lot colder than -5°C (23°F).

Now that I agree with.

I prefer to use paper if it's in an important context, or in one which I am interested in an exact conversion, but I do it in my head if it's merely for the human perception of heat.

He is speaking for himself.
No one else can do this.

Yes. One is even needed for ornamental pheasants also. If the person only uses them for self use (can't even give away an egg) the permit is free. If selling or giving away anything, eggs, meat, or live birds, the permit costs $50.

that doesn’t seem too bad, but does applying for the permit (free or paid for) make you subject to inspection?? that’s my main reason for not wanting to get permit here to keep regulated birds

 

[muddy75]

Yeah, when I was Googling it it said they can get a lot of snow and stuff which I never realized. I think I thought it was in the south. Or maybe I was mixing it up with Mississippi. Idk. But I used to think Kentucky was in the south too.

I always forget most of these are actually Midwest haha



You should get a permit if it’s free!



agreed.

kentucky/southern indiana/missouri is basically “mason dixon mutts”.......in this part of the country, we can experience all 4 seasons of weather in a single day!!!

Um, it's not that hard. Can you count? Can you add? Can you subtract? Great! You can do it in your head.

 

[BReeder!]

I'd rather have snow in the winter than humidity in the summer

I disagree. I can easily drive throw thick humidity. Thick snow is another story.

Just noticed the addition... definitely good mental exercise!! I can barely do it

Paper what are you talking about? I have a Google phone.

I used to have an Android I did that with! LOL and could do it with Siri too but if I’m already on Safari anyway it’s just faster to type it for me. Also I turned Siri off cause it kept turning on when I wasn’t even talking to it! I would say something kinda similar to it’s cue and it’d turn on or sometimes not even close. All those things are always listening too, you know. I turn off microphone and camera and tracking permissions and all that on all the apps that let me haha

Now that I agree with.

Exactly!!

Good point.

OMG really!? And that’s a good description haha

Um, it's not that hard. Can you count? Can you add? Can you subtract? Great! You can do it in your head.

Uhhh... I can barely even do this without a calculator or my fingers....

And forget multiplication or division lmao

I disagree. I can easily drive throw thick humidity. Thick snow is another story.

Uhh you do realize they plow the roads up here, right? we don’t just go driving over 6 foot snow banks.

And we usually just wait till the storm is over and/or the roads are plowed before going out. Which sometimes may be morning with a worse storm. But also if you know a bad storm is coming, most people go get groceries/supplies/gas before the storm hits. Milk and bread is big here for some reason.
