And after choosing not to use them, you might need to convert them to something else sometimes. You gonna tell me Europeans never travel to America as tourists? This is a fascinating and easy to remember method for them or anyone else.
You came to the right thread for shitting on Americans, obviously, but you chose the wrong place for this condescending comment.
You… shouldn’t? Unless you travel here as a tourist, as many do. This is converting FROM miles. I don’t understand why anyone would pick this place to shit on people who use miles. This comment offers a way out of using miles.
Just wanted to give a meme-y answer since we are in a meme side of the lemmy. I even thanked the person even though I think I will never travel outside my country given my circumstances.
Fun fact: you can convert from miles to kilometers using the Fibonacci sequence:
1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 35
So this means 1 mile = 1 kilometer.

Well I’m trying to get the the kilofoot to catch on
But I love Miles Morales
“Americans doing anything to not use the metric system” today: the Fibonacci sequence.
But why i should have to if I am not 'murican
Ps thank you.

In airspace, feet and miles are used very often
Pilots, maybe, they’re “special” like that. Engineers do not.
Jk
Yeah, but those are nautical miles, not murican miles.
Yes, nautical miles still have some logic behind, as they are based on degrees of latitude.
Still it’s funny to me that they are still called miles.
I appreciate this practical answer even though I just learned that only pilots uses this particular American measure system Americans call mile.
And where do i know which part of the fib sequence to use?
