While we are at it, let’s all (as in the entire planet) switch to 24hour UTC and the YYYY.MM.DD date format.
ISO8601 gang
Some ISO8601 formats are good, but some are unreadable (like 20240607T054831Z for date and time).
The ones without separators tend to be for server/client exchange though.
I mean I like this one without the separations
I am once again asking for yyyy-mm-dd
I’ll take metric gladly, but I can’t go that direction sir.
So dd-mm-yyyy?
yyyy-dd-mm 😀
INFIDELS
You could always use the metric system, that was always allowed. Most food (I’ve seen) has both imperial and metric measurements. Most digital measuring devices and lots of analog ones will have options for both. Speedometers generally have both.
Really, the only one stopping you from using the metric system in your daily life is you. Unless of course you’re saying you want other people to use it. Which is a distinctly different proposition.
I think we were the first with metric money? We still pay for things in centidollars.
Why do Americans call the decimal system “metric”?
Because that’s it’s name

But if you wanna get all specific about it we can call it SI

It’s certainly not the Decimal system
There’s no such thing as metric money. What are you talking about?
My Megadollar says otherwise.
Americans use 9 millimeters at school all the time.
How many football fields is that
About 82 nanofields
What’s the ratio of nanofields to millimeters?
I’m not, but I’m old as shit, and don’t really give a fuck.

Nah, let’s stick to Freedom Units! 🗽
