Why would it be anything else?
It’s clearly too low a number to be °K. And since the only two valid units of measurement for temperature are Kelvin and Celsius, it must be °C.

It can be that. But it is also a medium for public forums.
Also known as the Scandinavian mile. It is very commonly used in Sweden and Norway to describe long distances.
Before the introduction of the metric system, there were many local miles. Some a bit shorter than 10km, some a bit longer.
There’s a good chance you are mistaken. It was not specified which type of mile they are referencing.
The only sensible mile to use would be the Scandinavian mile (10.000m). = 6000km range.
Another possibility is the nautical mile (1852m). = 1.111,2km range.
And there are plenty of other “miles” to choose from.
Steve does go on, and on, and on, and on… Quite challenging, if you have a tight deadline.
Fun fact: J’aime la France, but I’m neither French, nor British. I just try to emulate my spoken pronunciation in my writing.
If I were to write a programme where it would be typical to choose between units of measurement, which I’m not, the drop down menu would have a choice of “SI units” and “fuck no, you don’t get to choose!”
Top left: An aerospace conglomerate with an all-consuming focus on short-term profits, leading to endemic problems. The featured product being the 787, a functional and popular airliner which had numerous problems related to excessive outsourcing. Some safety concerns about newly delivered planes of this type, due to the company’s endemic problems. As an airline, I would prefer to buy Airbus. And as a passenger, I would avoid the 737 Max totally and all Boeings for the first years of service.
Top right: A major electric car company with major leadership problems. The featured product is an automobile which compares disfavourably to other electric pickup trucks in most conventional metrics. As a consumer, I would look at alternatives.
Bottom left: Someone thought they could build a submarine.
Bottom right: The world’s leading space launch company. Also the world’s leading satellite internet company. The featured product is the Falcon 9, a large rocket capable of sending a large payload into orbit or beyond. The first stage can then land and be reused. Some concerns about the leadership of the company, and the side effects of their failure tolerant testing. As a for-profit company, I would have no other choice in launch providers. As a consumer, I could be in a situation where they are the the only real provider of internet access.
A very diverse “team”. Assembled by someone with a different perspective than my own.
Some of us are given free meals to eat in our paid meal breaks.
Nothing fancy though. Most times, the chef only makes a starter or a dessert. Rarely both.
