You usually say something like 10 stone and 5 pounds, rather than rounding to the nearest stone.

So TWO systems? Lol. Ah, humans, the funny stuff we come up with

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

No, not two systems, any more than "five pounds and three ounces" is two systems

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

They mean two ratios, whereas metric has just one ratio.

Only using pounds is like measuring height only in inches.

And somehow 16oz = 1# is better? Lol

Can't we just go to the decimal ton system. I weigh .00418410041 see how easy that is. That's a regular 2000 freedom lbs ton.

Wait... is a freedom lb the same thing as an avoirdupois lb? Doesn't that make freedom French?

Maybe? I heard they make fries always.

I might have screwed up.

Yeah ive never understood measurements where you have to imply like 2 or 3 extra sig figs. Thats my gripe with celsius too.

sig figs?

8 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Significant figures

then I still have no clue what you mean.

Same issue I have with Specific Gravity. And that noise doesn't even have a dimension! Worthless.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Well, actually, Specific Gravity, when talking about brewing beer, is a measurement of its density. The unit is kg/m^3. Waters density 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

is 1000kg/m^3 which equals 1kg/dm^3 = 1kg/liter, since 1 dm^3 = 1 liter. 2/2

Wtf is wrong with Celsius?

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 4

It based on the phase changes of water, not the phase changes of humans

You've yet to explain why it is bad...

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Seems like a pretty good constant to me. Oh it's -2 Celsius outside. That's why the water is floating down in white fluffy flakes....

why would humans be a good base of a measurment

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

Yes! I really feel like Fahrenheit is superior to Celsius where daily temperature is concerned, but no one here agrees with me.

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 4

In reality it doesn't matter for daily use. They both work. Most (not all) folks who make a big deal out of it do it for no real reason.

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 2

"Real reason"lol. F is a larger scale so more nuanced at integer accuracy.If C were a 200 deg scale it would be superior.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 2

Oh yea Mr gallons and ounces and Fahrenheit?

Don’t forget cooking measurements, where everything is in “cups”

Including vegetables, because what the fuck.

Except for real cooks and bakers. Bakers weigh.
