The EU only gave up their fight about that in 2008
And older people went out at night and changed signs which local councils had changed to metres back to yards in the dead of the night in the 90s
this isn't very convincing
i do a lot of woodwork and i measure everything in mm cos its mroe accurate than fractions of an inch
i keep having to convert for boomers who cant cut straight or at size
Maybe I'm a drinker and you're not, or something. Personally, I don't even consider modern pints to be proper pints. they're metric pints until we put the crown symbol back on the glass, rather than 'CE'
teh cut of a saw is measured in mm like 3 or 4, not 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch
If you get your stock from America, you can probably get them non-metric
are you talking pints or wood
cos i get both locally
Tools
lmao
the cut is bigger than the blade
you ever used a saw buddy
im gonna order an imperial hammer from murica
rather than a metric one
Not to any serious extent... but I'm sure the French didn't invent it
And I'm sure God doesn't make wood in Metric
no the trees do
because metric is a measurement
so is food
tis all in grams and kilo-calories
I buy my food in lbs
whats that? like 500g?
Why do you think loads of things on the shelves are 454g? Because that's a lb
ive never noticed or thought about it
cos i dont eat food in 500g incrememnts
I do if it's haggis 😉
never had it
isnt it liver
Pluck; Heart + lungs, boiled in a sheep's stomach... finest food available to humanity
no gtfo with imperial, it needs phasing out
mostly boomers clinging to it
I'm 37 and I'll use it until I die
The phasing out of old/local measurements is on the globalist agenda
in metric, one millilitre of water occupies one cubic centimetre, weighs one gram and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by 1 degree centigrade, which is 1% of the difference between its freezing and boiling point
This is all very interesting for scientists -- but to the man on the street, the old ways made more sense
no
they make no sense
nothign can be direfctly related
