I know. People are stupid. All of them on both sides of this ridiculous argument.

Anyway, I’mma go to the liquor store and get me 750ml bottle of bourbon and then pop over to the grocery store and buy 5lbs(2.3kg) of flour because I’m a cup of flour short to bake 2 loves of bread. Oh, remind me to get a pound of butter(454g) because I need 1/4 a stick of butter for the butter chicken masala I’m making for supper.

(I hope I added enough sand to everyone’s underwear)

So that took a calculator to do didn’t it. It was not an intuitive calculation you could easily and quickly do in your head was it.

Now go cut me a board 1/6m without a measuring device. Do it by eye. With a fractional system 1/6 of a foot is far easier to do.

I agree. I use both and have for decades now. It just seems Europeans can’t handle fractions despite their puny efforts to do so.

As an old toolmaker, I agree. It’s like Europeans suck at understanding math(s) just as much as 'Muricans. Fractions are NOT complicated, if a bit crude for precision. Not that either system matters much anymore. It’s all just G20/G21 anyway. It’s all either just a push of a button or a G-code away.

If the machine doesn’t care about the units are being used, why should I?

It explains nothing since he got it wrong…

No, it’s not “Imperial units” and hasn’t been for a long time. It’s US Customary units. There are differences between the two systems. If your going to troll, get it right.

If you can’t, go back to your troll cave and cuddle your delicious stinky cheeses!

I’m sitting here now wondering just who should reproduce and how do we determine who that is?

Pardon away. It won’t stop state charges…

There ain’t no difference between the smell of dead bodies in the sun in a “conflict” or a “war”.

And yes infrastructure IS that brittle. Just ask the Russians about Ukrainian drone attacks. And there is NO place on this earth that a missile can’t reach.

Judgy Kitty is here to judge you. And you are found guilty and condemned to being a basement dwelling gamer!

Just how do you expect to move the plot along!?!?

Having beheld the AI slop on Makers World, I sure as hell wouldn’t.

I don’t know. Have you ever eaten Wonder Bread or the bread they use for subway sandwiches? If that ain’t evil and vile, I don’t know what is.

Good bread can be had anywhere. Even in your own kitchen. The best bread I ever had was baked under the crudest of conditions with the barest of utensils and then baked on a hot rock heated in a fire.

Now cheese on the other hand…

In the case of a war, it would take just one drone to stop production for a very long time in one factory. Factories are big fat juicy targets that can’t move.

The competition has been a boon for us plebe users. And I would expect AMD to continue be Linux friendly if for no other reason it costs them very little to nothing. And they aren’t as intertwined with Microsoft as Intel has been for decades.

I’m sorry it’s blocked for you. But while I have never listened to a Cricket Match, I would bet the farm it’s tailor made for radio like baseball.

Remember, it will be a mere $10 down and Easy Payments^tm of one trillion a year over 20+ years.

I was born to be evil. I’m a member of the Bar Sinister AND I was born on a dark Halloween night. My mother always told me I kept her up all night when I was born.
