Right now just throat hurt temperature 99.1F( I grew up with C, the F one I have no clue, as long as under 100F is good?)
My wife is little panicking now we sleep in different room last night, she test negative so far)
At 10am I have appointment with drive through test, I been told that one is more accurate.
Thank you for those left a comment here, you're the reason that keep me at mastodon (Qoto)

@Sphinx Why didn't you just mention it in C then? There are a lot of people here understanding C! Let the Americans convert!
But really, get well soon, take plenty of rest... Don't stress yourself! Take care!
@trinsec @Sphinx Sphinx, I hope you feel better.
Trinsec, F is superior if you aren't a water molecule, change my mind.
150: dead
100: very hot, still alive
98-75: hot and warmish
70-40: sort of cold/sort of hot depending on other conditions
40-10 coat weather
10-0: very cold, still alive for a little while
Celsius:
100: dead
60: dead
40: deadly fever
36: body temp
20: good weather
10: jacket weather
0: coat weather
I want a temperature system designed around my perceptions, not the rovibrational states of water molecules. Both have their place, bur higher resolution decision making for human needs, F is better IMO.
And this is from an ex-chemist, I used C and Kelvin lots
@barefootstache @trinsec @Sphinx All I'm saying is that I prefer a higher resolution based on my own perception: e.g. when I set my thermostat to 70F, that's perfect to me and +- one degree isn't a huge deal, but going 70-75 or 70-65 is. Hence, I typically use a jump in ~5 degrees F as a noticeable change in perceived temperature to the point of discomfort in certain clothes, but even 1-2 degrees would be noticeable after a long while in a room. Hence, I don't have to worry about using fractional degrees to determine my exact temperature preference for anything, whole numbers work great.
While there is a linear transformation between the two, C is a lower resolution scale as compared to my perceptions, as one degree in C is roughly 2 in F, and is offset by 1/3rd of the scale of really cold and really hot. Hence, to dial in my preferred temperature, I need it to be 21.3333333 degrees C, and really hot is only 39C. Why am I stuck using only ~40% of the scale from 0-100?
To conclude, I love the metric system for basically everything else: I like cm and mm for woodworking over fractions of an inch. Better resolution and nice round numbers instead of 3/64ths and such. I prefer grams to lbs because factors of 10 are great, and you get higher resolution! But I think using C over F to do nonscientific work is sort of a moot point; we lose the nice rounds numbers the metric system is known for for our daily lives, and get whole number benefit for phase changes of water and that's basically it. Yes I am composed of ~70% water molecules, but that doesn't mean I care how fast they're jiggling relative to their phase transitions! LET ME HAVE MY ROUND NUMBERS AND HIGHER RESOLUTION, LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE THAT'S NORMALLY IN METRIC. I DESERVE THIS.😂
@trinsec @barefootstache @Sphinx AAAH I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE (literally, I'll die at that temp)
@johnabs @barefootstache @Sphinx
Let us put you to 100 degrees...
CELSIUS THAT IS!!
