I've pirated content and don't have any issues with it. What has worn me out
- Sites being pirated don't give a shit that pirates aren't going to use them anymore. That's literally why they blocked them.
- Want to consume content without paying? Do it and maybe share with others how you did it, but don't make the millionth post bragging about how you're sticking it to the man. Go rob a Tiffany's and brag about sticking it to that company. And when they install new security measures, post about how unfair it is and you'll never take stuff from them again. Or don't. Really. Don't. I want to see that post about as much as the post about what you had for breakfast this morning.
Fahrenheit measured human body temperature (which he thought was a constant) and called that 96 degrees. We now know normal body temperature is about 98.6 degrees F, but back then, his instruments weren't as accurate. The number 96 was chosen for its divisibility. It has many divisors (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96), making it easier to mark subdivisions on the thermometer.
It's a scale partly defined by human body temperature, which is, I think, the point.
