thanks french bros

Everyone in Ireland used Imperial measurement in common speech when I was over there.
Do the migrants not have the capacity to learn it like the old stock did?

>>519273181
Skill issue

>metric system
Should be called Global Homogeneity System.

Post the real one

>>519275724
There wa sanother one where it said something along the lines of "make arrogant and false assumptions about the speed of light in vaccum and measure the circumference of the Earth wrong" and so on. You don't happen to have that?

>>519275943
Just checked, no. But i would love to have it

>>519275724
>1000 paces
nobody is taking 5-foot steps, absolutely nobody

>french bros
Yeah thanks Marquis de Sade, without you eating sewage the creators of metric never could have murdered as many children or burned as many buildings for having roofs to much taller than their neighbors.


The French revolution was like the Holocaust except it happened and to people.

>>519272634 (OP)
there's alot of units of measurement
it's good to know more than one
the imperial system was actually used for making castles and I forget where I saw it but it made sense at the time.
Also the french shit that was supposed to bring us the metric standards sank.

>>519272634 (OP)
Feel free to finish converting to the metric system, LARPer

>>519276381
Pace used to mean your full walk cycle between both legs, as in two of what you think of as paces.

>>519272634 (OP)
fuck off yeah

don't mention it potato enjoyer

Jewtric was invented by a jew to destroy the holy system of measurement.
Imperial is literally based on the nature and the human body.
Go put your mask on you boosted faggot.

>>519272634 (OP)
The metric system was invented by an Englishman

>>John Wilkins's proposal: Wilkins, in his 1668 book An Essay towards a Real Character and a Philosophical Language, called for a "universal measure" based on a natural phenomenon and a decimal system.

The French adopted it as part of their anglophilia their envy of England's rapid technological progress..

>>519272634 (OP)
the simple and conclusive argument against metric is, try to decimalise music, instead of a 12 tone system divide the octave into 10, wow nothing works and it sounds terrible, I win

>>519276536

>through Paris
That’s right, Vienna is a second rate copy of Paris, stay jelly

>>519276610
On a serious note both have their uses; metric is known by many Americans due to illegal drugs or zog service.

metric is fine for doing science, but shit fir describing 99% of real life. The measurement lengths are just awkward

>>519276479
every computer runs on metric time and converts it into a display

>>519276534
Metric is a much more intuitive system.
A "cup" or "foot"? How does that relate to anything useful?

Much more intuitive using rubidium decay states and big round numbers for the browns to understand

>>519276679
lol no, they count seconds since Jan, 1 of 1970.

>>519276479
That picture makes no sense at all.

>>519276642
Is this why we have so many black people in Vienna?

What's the imperial equivalent of Watts (Wt), Ampere (A), Volts (V)?

>>519276499
Ahhh, so you know french, that's cool.

So, what is your opinion about the show?

I know that there's a lot of things to say about the show, and I'm not going to pretend that I have a complete understanding of all of them

TIL: The jews invented metric to make it easier to ship brown people into white countries

Seems legit

metric is retarded

What show?

>>519276982
Metric electricity used CGS values that have all but evaporated.
Ergs, Galileo, Statvolts and Abvolts

>the brits always wanted to be special
was the CGS system and it failed miserably.
>Unless you still use ergs

>>519276839
*Milliseconds

>>519276841
tl/dr metricfags tried multiple times to convert to base-10 time and failed miserably (because the Babylonians really had their shit together)

>>519276679
>every computer runs on metric time and converts it into a display
Computers run on binary, einstein.
Most tell time by counting the number of tics from 1/1/1970.

>>519277173
...you have an invisible partition on your drive then

>>519277713
No, that's what thought but it's actually because metric bits are smaller than normal bits.

>>519273181
we can learn. I've learned feet/inches, lbs for /fit/ and partials for /diy/
it doesn't make the imperial any less stupid

>>519276453
>it made sense at the time
Still does, moreso than metric for many day to day tasks that don't require much if any conversions or calculations.

>>519278050
wtf europe?!

>>519278050
>>519278350
is this a joke?

>>519272634 (OP)
An inch to a furlong is the same ratio as a mile to the circumference of the earth.

>>519278050
It should say
>16TB =14,5 TiB
TiB - It is called Tebibytes and yes its due to the difference of base 10 vs base 2. Pic unrel

>>519279028
if I type "MB" what does your brain translate that as?

>>519278435
No joke, metric tried to steal the definition of the megabyte to say 1 MB is 1000000 B

>>519272634 (OP)
We would have the metric system but the French guy Jefferson asked to help set it up had his ship captured by pirates and died in captivity.

>>519280073
>based Jefferson assassinating demons and preserving the ancient secrets

Burgers talk shit about metric all day but then use it for the things that actually matter to them because they know imperial is retarded

>>519281250
We measure the important stuff in thousandths of an inch, friendo.

>>519281548
>picometers exists

>demon gibberish

>>519281548
What nanoinch processor do you have?

>>519281825
Funny thing is the nm displayed on processors doesn't actually mean anything.
"5nm" doesn't mean anything in the thing is 5nm long. It's pure marketing.

>>519281825
>can't make demon technology with God's measurement system
I'll bet you can but I'll also bet you can guess why they don't.

>>519272634 (OP)
>Yes, good goy, use (((globalist))) units. That imperial system is racist!

>>519281250
You have no clue about what we use for real shit. We spend millions a year to use an exact 6000 foot nautical mile and it's worth it.

>>519272634 (OP)
i was a metric sperg until i realized that imperial units can be divided into a single whole number, which is why computers use an imperial-like system
