if you are thinking about downvoting, remember you can’t be negative about it

Klear@quokk.au on 20 Aug 18:46 collapse

0.0

ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 20 Aug 18:26 next collapse

wait, why are some countries grey?

tanisnikana@lemmy.world on 20 Aug 18:31 next collapse

They haven’t installed temperature yet.

It’s bullshit you have to pay for what should have been a free update. Greedy devs at it again.

L0rdMathias@sh.itjust.works on 20 Aug 18:31 next collapse

They only measure in Hot, so they won’t have any cold data.

JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca on 20 Aug 18:35 next collapse

They only use Kelvin

yozul@beehaw.org on 20 Aug 18:40 next collapse

Or alternatively they’ve only ever had temperatures below 0°.

Is it consensual?

neidu3@sh.itjust.works on 20 Aug 18:44 next collapse

Here in Norway the scale goes from “Ferrjævelig” to “utepils”. Numeric scales is an EU thing we didn’t sign up for.

Klear@quokk.au on 20 Aug 18:47 collapse

I think I heard the first one from a unit in Age of Mythology.

Cat_Daddy@hexbear.net on 20 Aug 19:03 next collapse

Lack of data

Lemminary@lemmy.world on 20 Aug 19:36 next collapse

Floor heating, probably.

CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world on 20 Aug 19:40 collapse

Norway never had values at 0° or above

FaceDeer@fedia.io on 20 Aug 18:30 next collapse

Is that in Celsius, Fahrenheit, Rankine, Rømer, Réaumur, Delisle, Leiden, or Wedgwood?

JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca on 20 Aug 18:34 next collapse

Yes

doingthestuff@lemy.lol on 20 Aug 19:08 collapse

I don’t expect anywhere in Greece has been 0 F.

Skua@kbin.earth on 20 Aug 19:25 next collapse

Apparently January 1963 managed it, and by a fair margin too. The same weather system that caused the "Big Freeze" in the UK caught large chunks of the rest of Europe too, including taking Ptolemaida in Greece down to -28 C / -18 F

doingthestuff@lemy.lol on 20 Aug 19:51 next collapse

Wow. Cool, thank you. I don’t mind being wrong.

Opisek@lemmy.world on 20 Aug 21:13 collapse

This is the part of the map that makes me go uhm actually. I’m not sure if instruments with a bunch of decimal places ever did show exactly 0°. Of course, if we know that temperatures reached negative whatever at one point and positive whatever at another, then algebra tells us it must have been exactly zero at some point. That does not however mean that it was ever measured at that very exact moment of time. That also goes over the fact that the real world kinda isn’t continuous regarding measurements once you go small enough thanks to the Planck’s constant. Now, zero Kelvin is absolutely (heh) possible to achieve, but once you shift the scale? Idk I’m not a physicist; I just thought to myself hm did it ever show 0 or was it actually 0.0000001? Edit: I’m also tired and sick and there’s a high chance that this comment is just my fever dream.

ladicius@lemmy.world on 21 Aug 06:25 collapse

Fever dream. Get better soon.

Whoosh?

Cat_Daddy@hexbear.net on 20 Aug 19:03 collapse

Yes

crazyminner@lemmy.ml on 20 Aug 19:13 next collapse

I’m pretty sure zero Kelvin has never been measured.

pressanykeynow@lemmy.world on 21 Aug 06:45 collapse

Can it even be measured? Won’t any interference by the measurement raise temperature?

crazyminner@lemmy.ml on 21 Aug 08:17 collapse

I don’t think you can know the absolute position of anything and having something at 0 kelvin would mean knowing it position.
