minus-squarePatFusty@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up44arrow-down7·2 years agoSorry thats 1.8E9nm tall and 8.5 stone. Hope thats easier for you to understand
minus-squareSekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up53arrow-down6·2 years agoThe stone isn’t since it’s not metric but the height legitimately is since I can just drop the e9 and get a reasonable height. Since, yknow, metric makes sense.

minus-squareAqarius@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up24arrow-down3·2 years agoIt’s funny, you try and be intentionally obtuse with the nano units, except doing it in metric doesn’t work since “1.8” is still there.

minus-squarematthewmercury@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down2·2 years agoThe truth is that all Americans are comfortable with the metric system but we still use Imperial when we know it will bother you.
