54 C for everyone using normal units
Do they not have the concept of humor on your planet? That’s too bad. I hope it gets there sometime soon.
Can you please describe it as a quantity mass compressing air in a 1" cylinder for 10 seconds at STP?

You better have forgotten another quotation somewhere, because if that stands for the heretical inch unit then I’m about to shove my 30cm up your ass.
Came here to make a human steak joke but as usual, the community doesn’t disappoint.
this means that you can cook a steak perfectly by leaving it out in the sun in Death Valley
That’s insane. I was in Arizona last month in 110° heat, and going outside felt like stepping into an oven. I can’t imagine what 130° must feel like.
I once flew out of Phoenix and they delayed the flight because it was 117°F. They said it was too hot for the plane to take off.
Yeah, but it’s a dry heat.
I don’t think people take dry heat seriously. Humid heat is obviously dangerous because you can’t sweat the heat out of your body as efficiently, but dry heat at these temperatures feels like walking outside and holding a hair dryer to your skin. It’s so fucking hot. You can feel the sun touching your skin like its physically reaching out. You sunburn from 5–15 minutes in the sun without sunblock. And it doesn’t cool off either, not really. Temperatures stay in the high 80s and low-to-mid 90s all night. “But it’s a dry heat” is really dismissive of how dangerous an unwavering 90–120° is, in this case for weeks on end.
You’re right, feels like stepping into an oven, as soon as you’re in the sun you feel like you’re starting to literally cook. It’s awful, and in a city it doesn’t cool much so you can’t cool off. If heat doesn’t get you the first day try the next when you’re with down a little.
I’d like to see how a dry heat compares because I’ve always heard it was better. This past week where I’m at in the states has been terrible, triple digit heat (I think it was 102 on Wednesday) with super high humidity and ridiculous UV levels; the air is thick and like a blanket wrapped around your head the moment you walk outside. Nights have been upper 70’s-low 80’s, I know it could be worse (thank god for a pool and AC), but this is way hotter than when I grew up.
after dying in greater vancouver region one summer some decade ago, I went to nevada and pet some donkeys or something. The degrees were higher but I wasn’t dripping with sweat like in vancouver. The real rain in raincouver was my sweat all along! Actually though its so gross. People regularly ask if I’m crying and if I need to take a break. One of the jobs in the past a customer actually called a manager to ask for them to give me an extra break for working so hard in the heat. I was fine, just looked like I pissed myself, then did a handstand and pissed myself again.
Maybe we can build a fire, sing a couple of songs. Why don’t we try that?
I feel like Death Valley always hits 127 degrees.
The previous high shattered by 5 degrees Fahrenheit, with the mercury climbing to 127 F. The old mark of 122 F was last tied in 2013.
A new record for July 5th. Death Valley hits 127 every year on different days. Not really noteworthy.
It even mentions 130 recorded in 2021. Like what peice of crap AI wrote this junk.
