Why does 69° never appear on Apple’s Weather app. It calculated temperatures in whole Celsius numbers first, then converted them to Fahrenheit for display.
That meant 20°C showed up as 68°F, while 21°C became 69.8°F and rounded to 70°F. So 69 never had a clean landing spot. Same deal for 65 and 71, but let’s be honest, nobody was launching investigations over those.

@kibcol1049@mstdn.social still wrestling between Celsius & Fahrenheit. Otherwise, nautical time & metrics have become default.

@kibcol1049@mstdn.social Why do we have any number in °F? Except -40
