minus-squareMxM111@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up21arrow-down4·10 months agoC and K use different reference points too, yet you called them laterally the same.
minus-squareSabre363@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down4·10 months agoThey have a lot more in common than Celsius and Fahrenheit, which are only related because they are both measures of temperature.
minus-squareMxM111@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down2·10 months agoThat depends how you count “a lot more in common”. The reference points for zero is much closer for C and F. People commonly use in everyday life C and F, but not K. Should I continue?
minus-squareSamirCasino@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoAh yes just rolls off the tongue. Totally the same as, an increment of one is equal in both.

minus-squarechiliedogg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 months agoSame relationship between Rankine and Fahrenheit. And 0 Kelvin and 0° Rankine are three same temperature.
minus-squareChrobin@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoIn that case I assume it would be 0 Rankine without degrees, too? Because it’s an absolute unit like Kelvin.
minus-squarechiliedogg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·10 months agoIt’s still technically defined based on its relationship to Fahrenheit, just like Kelvin was with Celsius until the 60s.
