Anything that says Phoenix is like Endor and Las Vegas is like Naboo fails on the most basic of levels.

It correctly identified SF as having Endor weather, but that's not a hard one.

And it claims that London is Hoth.

apparently, so is New York.

Put in Tataouine, Tunisia, however and you get... Alderaan.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.  We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

And yet it also identifies that distant land across the Bay, Berkeley, as Hoth.   awesome, for real

Actually, that was my bad.  When I typed in Berkeley, I didn't notice that defaulted to Berkeley, UK.  Berkeley, CA remains the land hairy tree huggers after all.

It claims Oslo is Hoth too, with it's -16 degrees Celsius. <Random Trivia>Incidentally, the real life location for Hoth is also in Norway - more specifically near a place called Finse. :P</Random Trivia>

Anything above -25* being called "Hoth" is utter bullshit.  It only starts hurting to breathe around -35* or so.

Around that range they start to converge.  -40* is almost exactly where it occurs.  With that kind of temperature you immediately start to get stabbing pains in your lungs when you inhale.

All I know is that anything under about 10* F is "balls cold" as far as I'm concerned. I did a winter in the hinterlands of Minneapolis. When it's so cold that frost comes out of your heat vents when you first start your car and the radio takes approx. 30 seconds to change stations because the electronics are cold, that is clearly Hoth.

Perhaps from a nerdrage/SW lore standpoint I am wrong, but I know what feels cold as fuck.

I traded in my fun blog for several legal blogs. Or, "blawgs," as the cutesy attorney blawgosphere likes to call 'em.

Bullshit with a chance of stupid.

-12* C?  You're not really cut out for this cold thing, are you?
