when do you use all of those measurements in the same context is the follow up question.
for example, why do europeans still use calories for food. the SI unit for energy is joule. things are decided because “thats what people are used to” . the calorie is not an SI unit.
And what do you mean you europeans? You guys use calories too! So does china and… I have not been to any other countries but I am fairly certain they use calories too!
We used the imperial when I attended 1 year of middle school there, even in science class?
And surely you guys use measurement units outside of scientific context, no? How the fuck is this usable even in everyday example? (https://img1.wsimg.com/isteam/ip/23d2321c-d442-451b-b14d-920e0592d640/Screen Shot 2020-10-17 at 11.47.02 PM.png)
It physically hurts me to even look at this!
what were you measuring in middle school of all things, that would warrant using imperial units…
if you cant look at anything not based 10, I hope you dont handle anything time or computer related
Was your measurement systems values decided by a drunk dice game?
1/12->1->3->5280->6080
Just say that out loud

Why would you change calories into joules?
