Like most things we have it’s not even ours.
Like most things we have it’s not even ours.
Especially considering we are water
95 in Denver feels like 75 in South Carolina
It’s not even our system. We adopted the system of our oppressors that kept it long after they abandoned it.
Imperial is not American, some might call it unAmerican
How many meters are in 13.2 km? 13,200
How many feet are in 13.2 mi?
Break out a calculator
Why is my country so arrogant that they will argue for an objectively worse measurement system?
Lol is it?
Think of all the different numbers you have to divide different units in our system by to convert.
numbers are base 10 for every single society on earth. Metric units always scale by 10. It’s literally perfect for how we interpret numbers
As an American I approve this comment.
I’ve been into 3D printing for a few years and it has forced me into metric. Now my brain works in millimeters and it’s way better
Our countries insistence on using imperial is evidence of our resistance to change. Even the creators of the system have abandoned it
I’m going to pretend that that result was completely intentional lol
