Default Troll-feeding Senile ASSHOLE Alert!

On Wed, 11 Dec 2019 07:03:55 -0800 (PST), It's REAL DUMB Pedophilic serb
nazi Bitchslapping Time, AGAIN!


The offical way of measure IIRC is 1 metre off the floor, which is why when we had our temp tested the workman came in a asked for a ladder so they could get up close to the heating system and hold their thermometers there to getv a reading of 20C, pity that at 1 metre is was below 12C and in one case as low as 5C.


Just what kind of an asshole are you, whisky-depraved? Oh, yeah, I know: a

How a room feels depends on a lot more than

is just as important to how warm it feels.

What's important to a person is how warm it feels.

Sure, but that's a separate issue to why the room
feels different to what the thermometer says.

Ah, I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying it was important
in
everyday life to know your wall temperature.

I guess thermometers should be hung in the centre of the room, so
they
smack you in the face as you walk in.

You can certainly get thermometer that measure the wall
temps and give you a fells like temp.

I do scoff at weather forecasts when they say "-7C, feels
like -1000000C,
DANGER! You will die instantly! Severe wind chill!" Yeah right. I
just
stick my head out of the door and decide whether to wear shorts or
shorts.

Easier to ask siri what it feels like before dressing.

And siri somehow knows your personal preference,

Doesn't need to. It tells me what it feels like and I know that
shorts and a T shirt will be fine when heading out for exercise
on a day which will have a max of over 30C but is nothing like
fine when sitting around the house at the computer etc. I know
that jeans or cargo pants and a top will be much more comfortable.


How hard can it be to open the ****ing door?


Not hard but nothing like what it will be like on
the other side of town with a stiff breeze blowing.

Outside my house is quite different
to most of the town how it feels wise.


You must be a really sensitive little girl if you can even detect the difference. I can walk outside when it's 10C and when it's 5C and I couldn't tell you if it was colder or warmer today.

Same goes for rain, I look at the sky. If there are clouds, it might
rain.


I look at the radar and lightning maps, give a
much better idea of what is likely to happen.


You believe those witch doctors do you? I've got something in my pocket that's more accurate, it's a coin. If it's heads it rains, if it's tails it's sunny.

and precisely what you'll be doing?

Nope.


Yep, as you just stated above,


I don't TELL siri that.

it makes a difference if you're going to be exerting yourself.


Sure, but SIRI doesn't KNOW that,


Which is my point. It can't give you an accurate idea of what to wear as it has no idea what you're going to be doing.

Do you tell it you're going to be running, walking, sitting about,
shopping, driving, etc?


Nope, ask it what it feels like and allow for that myself.


So the answer it gives still needs adjustment by yourself.


Yes,

Might aswell just look outside.


Not when outside my place is quite different to most of the town.


Just how big is this town?

Its designed to be that way and does that very well indeed.

In spades with the garage sale run. The feels like tells me
whether I will wish I had the heavy fleece jacket on when
standing around waiting for one to open in a freezing wind
in winter at 6am in the dark.


Are you really that wimpy?


Nothing wimpy about being comfortable.


Most folk are comfortable within a fair range of temperatures.

If so, shove the fleece in the car. When
you get there, if you feel cold, put it on.


More convenient to put it on before going out.


No it's not. Just leave one in the car and always go out without one. As soon as you decide you're cold, put it on.

In spades with the short/cargo pants choice.


You seriously must be female.

30K people.

Its designed to be that way and does that very well indeed.

Most folk are comfortable within a fair range of temperatures.


Nothing wimpy about being comfortable.


So am I but I prefer to be comfortable when
standing around in with a chill wind in winter.

And when standing around when its over 45C too
which feels like you are in a oven.

If so, shove the fleece in the car. When
you get there, if you feel cold, put it on.

No it's not. Just leave one in the car and always go out without one. As

They don't agree Because one is Republican, the other is Democrat and
the third is most likely Libertarian.


Or the humidity is different

In a humid summer I want my car at 19C. In dry cold winder 22 is more
the mark.


I'm really not that fussy.

And what you're saying appears to be backwards. When it's humid, temperatures feel more extreme either way (think butterfly house - 100% humidity, your sweat can't evaporate), so you should be feeling not quite as cold when the winter is dry. Although I've never know a dry winter. Winter is usually 100% humidity here in Scotland. That means your skin is damp and you feel colder. A dry winter should feel a bit warmer.

Set mine at 22C on the last few cars and never change it. Love good

I'm just happy if I can see out the bloody window. Who the hell thought it would be a good idea to populate an island (the UK)? It's just wet, all the bloody time. Windows are always steamed up. Cars get damp and mouldy inside.

Shouldn't be necessary. All three thermometers have already been shown to agree.

Nobody knows about all physics. I did subatomic particles, not thermodynamics.

What you feel is the differnce between your internal temperature and extenal temperature.


So when I walk into a cooler room, I should feel more difference, and know it's cooler, right?

That's why you don't feel 'the cold' when sitting in a cold stream with cold air around you.


What?!

Which is also why hot countries have spicy food, and cold countries (othe rthan the UK perhaps don't)


Spicy is not hot (temperature).

I always put them at eye level, easier to read. Who cares if it says 22C instead of 20C, you just learn you like "22C".

which is why when we had our temp tested the workman came in a asked for a ladder so they could get up close to the heating system and hold their thermometers there to getv a reading of 20C, pity that at 1 metre is was below 12C and in one case as low as 5C.


Why would you need your temp tested? If you want it warmer, turn the heating up. If you want it cooler, open a window. Take action yourself instead of moaning and blaming someone else.

And the thermometer actually comes back out unharmed?

Maybe check humidity in both rooms with a sling psychrometer?


Checked with a digital one. Only 3% difference. Which I think would
slightly exaggerate the change I'd feel.

I think the problem is that the room isn't even throughout, they never
are. I'm feeling the air in the middle as I walk through the door, the
thermometers were on the wall at the edge.


Was somone murdered in that room ?. Ghost ??


I'm not admitting to that in public.

They don't agree Because one is Republican, the other is Democrat and

Or the humidity is different

In a humid summer I want my car at 19C. In dry cold winder 22 is more
the mark.

And what you're saying appears to be backwards. When it's humid,

We do get dr7 winters here quite a bit of the time and it feels colder than
with hither humidity.

Set mine at 22C on the last few cars and never change it. Love good

There's a reason they are called balaclavas.

I'm really not that fussy.

And what you're saying appears to be backwards. When it's humid,
temperatures feel more extreme either way (think butterfly house - 100%
humidity, your sweat can't evaporate), so you should be feeling not quite
as cold when the winter is dry. Although I've never know a dry winter.
Winter is usually 100% humidity here in Scotland. That means your skin is

with hither humidity.


I don't see why that would be true. I can understand humidity in summer stopping you from sweating so easily, so you feel hotter. But in winter, you aren't sweating. I would have thought if the air is damper in winter, more heat would be conducted away from you. Perhaps if you're wet for some reason, like it's been raining, then you cause more evaporation when it's less humid? But it wouldn't have rained if it was dry! Maybe it's the damp on your skin evaporating as skin is always a little bit moist? I'm having to guess here as I'm not fussy enough to notice the difference, unless I walked from one place directly to another with different humidity and the same temperature.

How a room feels depends on a lot more than
just the air temp, the temperature of the walls
is just as important to how warm it feels.

What's important to a person is how warm it feels.

Sure, but that's a separate issue to why the room
feels different to what the thermometer says.

Ah, I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying it was important
in
everyday life to know your wall temperature.

I guess thermometers should be hung in the centre of the room, so
they
smack you in the face as you walk in.

You can certainly get thermometer that measure the wall
temps and give you a fells like temp.

I do scoff at weather forecasts when they say "-7C, feels
like -1000000C,
DANGER! You will die instantly! Severe wind chill!" Yeah right.
I
just
stick my head out of the door and decide whether to wear shorts or
shorts.

Easier to ask siri what it feels like before dressing.

And siri somehow knows your personal preference,

Doesn't need to. It tells me what it feels like and I know that
shorts and a T shirt will be fine when heading out for exercise
on a day which will have a max of over 30C but is nothing like
fine when sitting around the house at the computer etc. I know
that jeans or cargo pants and a top will be much more comfortable.

How hard can it be to open the ****ing door?

Not hard but nothing like what it will be like on
the other side of town with a stiff breeze blowing.

Outside my house is quite different
to most of the town how it feels wise.


You must be a really sensitive little girl if you can even detect the
difference. I can walk outside when it's 10C and when it's 5C and I
couldn't tell you if it was colder or warmer today.

Same goes for rain, I look at the sky. If there are clouds, it might
rain.

I look at the radar and lightning maps, give a
much better idea of what is likely to happen.


You believe those witch doctors do you?


I know I can see the rain coming from hundreds of miles
way and can see it passing below my town at times too.


And you know which way it will decide to go do you?

and precisely what you'll be doing?

Nope.

Yep, as you just stated above,

I don't TELL siri that.

it makes a difference if you're going to be exerting yourself.

Sure, but SIRI doesn't KNOW that,


Which is my point.


Wrong, as always.

It can't give you an accurate idea of what to wear


But it can tell you what temperature it will feel like


It has no clue what temperature it will feel like. Because that depends on how wimpy you are, what you're wearing, what you're doing, etc, etc.

Do you tell it you're going to be running, walking, sitting
about,shopping, driving, etc?

Nope, ask it what it feels like and allow for that myself.

So the answer it gives still needs adjustment by yourself.

Yes,

Might aswell just look outside.

Not when outside my place is quite different to most of the town.


Just how big is this town?


30K people.


I meant in area obviously. Which is the only thing relevant to weather. Why would the weather care how many people are there?

Its designed to be that way and does that very well indeed.

In spades with the garage sale run. The feels like tells me
whether I will wish I had the heavy fleece jacket on when
standing around waiting for one to open in a freezing wind
in winter at 6am in the dark.

Are you really that wimpy?

Most folk are comfortable within a fair range of temperatures.


Nothing wimpy about being comfortable.


So am I but I prefer to be comfortable when
standing around in with a chill wind in winter.

And when standing around when its over 45C too
which feels like you are in a oven.


Those are extremes of temperature. What I mean is the "feels like" is unnecessarily precise. If it feels 5 or 10C different to what it really is, you won't even know or care.

If so, shove the fleece in the car. When
you get there, if you feel cold, put it on.

More convenient to put it on before going out.


No it's not. Just leave one in the car and always go out without one. As
soon as you decide you're cold, put it on.

In spades with the short/cargo pants choice.


pathetic excuse for a troll flushed where it belongs


Was my query too difficult for you?
