Yes, obviously dozenal metric is better than decimal metric, but decimal metric is better than imperial.
Where Metric really shines is conversion between unlike units. In Metric, the equation for voltage is V=IR, and it’s so convenient Imperial didn’t bother to make their own version of it, so americans use metric for electricity. I can use kilograms and meters to calculate force, while you silly americans have to convert inches and pounds into different pounds using a conversion factor. Then I can use meters again to get pascals, or I can use meters differently to get joules. You’re stuck using a conversion factor to get calories. Then I can use seconds to get watts, and we’re back in electricity territory where you fools have to convert over to our measurements to keep up. Metric is awesome!
Note that LOTR was 100% informed by his experiences in WWI and he sought to impart readers with many of the same feelings. He’s just saying it’s not a 1:1 comparison. For example, World War One had no ents. He just put those in because they’re neat. LOTR isn’t a direct retelling of the great war, but it is supposed to make you think about what war does to people, and perhaps that will make you think about the great war.
I censored it because it’s a bad word. A slur against people with disabilities.
Call it a gutfiller.
One could easily spend more time trying to measure 1.905 cm vs very quickly dividing 1 into 3/4".
If the standard is written in Metric, the factory that makes the parts uses metric, and the place where the parts are used uses metric, why don’t they just use 2cm screws instead?
Your argument for the convenience of imperial is that the standard uses imperial. No shit. It would be just as hard to cut something to 0.787" inches if the standard were in metric.
Also the reason metric makes more sense is I don’t need a calculator to convert centimeters to kilometres. You need a calculator to convert inches to miles. AND you have to memorise the conversion factor! What a waste of brainpower
Wowsers, that’s horrible! I’ll make sure not to vote for Biden if he nominates Trump as his VP.
I love how alt right chuds are making themselves sound like trans catgirls these days

It’s not a child. A child is defined as having been born. It’s a fetus. A parasite.
Either way, the fetus of a woman who wants an abortion is up her vagina without consent and is therefore a rapist. Deadly force is permissible in the act of removing a rapist from their victim.
Water touches water and therefore makes it wet
Killing humans who have no nervous system is fine. It’s only immoral if the human is a person
I want to stay a virgin because I don’t like sex. If I wasn’t a virgin, it would mean something very bad had happened to me.
Mr Resetti from Animal Crossing. If your game closed without saving, he’d show up the next time you turned the game on to yell at you, and he wouldn’t let you play until he was finished. He even forced players (often little kids) to repeat “I am dirt” back to him.
