☆On metric☆

Maybe I'm just so done with *gestures vaguely* that being a bit petty will blow off steam, but honestly? Americans use metric. We use whatever is useful. Which really begs the question: if metric is so great, then why wouldn't we use it for everything?

Not "freedom units;" unit freedom

It offends me that the rest of the world doesn't realize(...) https://blog.bluestarcreations.net/rant-of-the-moment/on-metric

#Canada is not the only country that is somewhat #schizoid about #units / #metric and #Imperial measures.

I bought a roll of copper foil tape from China (AliExpress, natch) that was described as "20 mm x 393.7 inches". Why they didn't just say 10 meters is beyond me 😆

I did a post on Threads (https://www.threads.net/@realinvalidname/post/Cz1NgmrOVK_) asking the algorithm for more stuff I like. No algorithm here (good!), but maybe some hashtags will help find like-minded Mastodonians:
