    so I was playing this rocket game and I made a missile (it could actually go to the moon but I just mess around with it typically) and I deployed one of the parts of it (the payload fairing to be specific) and the part crashed back down to earth but the game glitched hard and it bounced back off of earth at about 10km/s which propelled it into orbit of the sun

      but I’m like, 93.506% positive 10km/s isn’t that fast

        my dude

        that is 10 kilometres per second

        THAT IS FASTER THAN MOST ROCKETS MOVE

        if we were to merge all the countries that use metres, we’d have a supercontinent

        if we were to merge all the countries that use the imperial system, we’d have a place a bit larger than the US

        meter-land is most of the world

          no i agree, meters are better

          we tried to implement it some decades ago but it wasn’t feasible, and probably is even less so today

          but ya’ll can suck deep ass about Celsius

          Fahrenheit > Celsius come at me whenever

            i like fahrenheit for it’s precision but I dislike how it’s melting and freezing points of water are arbitrary

              celsius serves its purpose in a scientific environment, what with 0 and 100 = freezing/boiling

              neat

              however this results in average real-world human air temperature readings being like -10 or 5 or whatever

              whereas farenheit is 0 = “feels cold as balls yo” and 100 is “feels hot as dicks yo”

                fahrenheit: oh it’s 100 degrees this sucks but I can live with it
