You have a reference for this Sunny because in my industry hard and soft metrics involve conversions using rounded and non rounded numbers.I'll waste a few minutes for the board's slow.
A meter has 1000 millimeters. The US dollar has 1000 mills since 1792 when Congress based the dollar on the meter. The Russian rubal was the first decimal currency with 100 kopecs in 1704. The US buck was the first decimal metric currency. US gasoline prices are posted in dollars. $3.099. The 9 at the end represents mills.
Proctor and Gamble could not sell it's 4 oz. (118 mL) Old Spice After Shave in New Zealand and Australia. These countries are metric. P & G changed the bottles to 125 mL (4.2 fl. oz) to sell in New Zealand, Australia and the US. Hard metric numbers end in zero and five. New Zealand and Australia law does not permit Imperial measre on consumer labels. US law mandates Standard and Metric on consumer labels.
Most caulk manufacturers have changed to 10.2 fluid ozs and 300 mL so they can sell their product anywhere. I no longer buy a half gallon OJ. My OJ maker has changed from 1/2 gallon 1.89 L to a hard metric 1.75 L.
Congrees permits the public to be hybrid. I buy a liter of mouth wash and a stupid quart of milk. The US goverment is all metric.
NavigatorII. Do you think I got through to the board's slowest? You know. The math expert.
A soft metric measurement is a non-mathmatic industry related conversion. along with a whole host of other meanings. In packaging, there are no acceptable tolerences. Canada accepts a 500 mL, 600 mL, 1 L and 2 L Coca Cola.You have a reference for this Sunny because in my industry hard and soft metrics involve conversions using rounded and non rounded numbers.
So they do a direct imperial to metric conversion and then round it up?A soft metric measurement is a non-mathmatic industry related conversion. along with a whole host of other meanings. In packaging, there are no acceptable tolerences. Canada accepts a 500 mL, 600 mL, 1 L and 2 L Coca Cola.

The products I mentioned are metric sized. No rounding. I believe it was 1993 when 12 oz. US soft drink bottlers switched labels from 354 mL to 355 mL so China and Tiawan would take them. Pepsi led the way I was told at Seattle ship yards. For a long time now, bottlers put 355 mL in the cans, not 12 fluid oz.So they do a direct imperial to metric conversion and then round it up?
Then then how do you get from 118ml to 120 for example you have a wonky number on one side or the other.The products I mentioned are metric sized. No rounding. I believe it was 1993 when 12 oz.

With enough room, you add 2 mL to the container. If needed, one orders up a larger container.Then then how do you get from 118ml to 120 for example you have a wonky number on one side or the other.

Mobil was first in the US to put a 1 Liter oil bottle on Walmart shelves in 1995. Conoco was last in 2003. Today the same bottles adorn store shelve across the entire American continent. US bottles still contain 946 mL or 1 US quart. I figure in anoter 25 years, US bottles will get a whole liter. Oil companies save money by using the same bottle acrioss the continent.
I once changed oil in a 1996 Plymouth Neon using Exxon Superflo. Checking the dipstick, I was slightly over full. I poured up one of the Superflo bottles into a 1000 mL beaker. There was a whole liter in the Superflo bottle.
That is not an answer.With enough room, you add 2 mL to the container. If needed, one orders up a larger container.
Bro, I have no idea what you guys are talking about. I have two sets of wrenches, one metric, one not. And for those reasons, I am out! 😂I'll waste a few minutes for the board's slow.

My OJ went from 1.89 liter (1/2 gal) to a hard metric 1.75 liter and the price remained the same. Oops!I will make one comment though. Prices are going up, and products are containing less volume per container at the same rate. That's a hard, ass reaming number.
You can provide a standard or STFU Sunny.My OJ went from 1.89 liter (1/2 gal) to a hard metric 1.75 liter and the price remained the same. Oops!
I've measured some 120 mm cigarettes and found them to be 118 mm. Some smokers are getting took.
1 US fluid oz. equals 29.5735 milliliter.That is not an answer.
I can show you a welding and engineering standard for soft and hard metrics when converting imperial to metric standards for writing blueprints for plate and pressure vessel fabrication, I don't expect you to take my word for it. Even if it's non mathematical somewhere there exists an explanation of how one converts liquid measurements from imperial to metric and I want to see it.
Dude. it's a simple request. You're telling me every oil company on the continent switched to the same size oil container without so much as a memo on the subject?1 US fluid oz. equals 29.5735 milliliter.
In 1 Liter of water there are 1000 milliliters of volumn. 1 Liter of water weighs 1000 grams at 23C. Distance of 1 Liter of water is 1000 cubic centimeters.
There is no rhyme or reason to the Imperial system of measurement. I'm one of a handful of people in the world who knows the numercally dysfunctional and idiotic English system of measurement. Except for maybe BSC911. The English system requiress a lifetime of memorizing and study.
I'm still baffled about the bushel measurement. What I do know is a bushel of oysters, the standard around here is 60 pounds in weight. IOW, about a croaker sack full, but they actually weigh them on a scale.Dude. it's a simple request. You're telling me every oil company on the continent switched to the same size oil container without so much as a memo on the subject?
I can't find a reference to hard or soft metrics applied to liquids and you can call me slow and explain how metric units work til the cows come home. it's still not a standard. You read it somewhere or learned it somewhere and there should be evidence of that somewhere.
Short answer. the British are insane. Look at their currency.I'm still baffled about the bushel measurement. What I do know is a bushel of oysters, the standard around here is 60 pounds in weight. IOW, about a croaker sack full, but they actually weigh them on a scale.
I'd rather not. Even their coins feel fake. 😂Short answer. the British are insane. Look at their currency.

You should have learned by now that idiot has zero evidence for any of his claims. He just spouts the same nonsense over and over thinking people will buy it.Dude. it's a simple request.

Well I'm slow, so...You should have learned by now that idiot has zero evidence for any of his claims. He just spouts the same nonsense over and over thinking people will buy it.
He’s an idiot, but I find him entertaining.
The funny thing is, he NEVER posts links. Then when people who actually know something about the subject question it, he starts to deflect into something unrelated. He thinks any round number makes it a “hard metric number.” It’s truly idiotic.Well I'm slow, so...
I am not an expert. I know that designs for pressure vessels come from all over the world. I know there's two ways to convert them. I don't know the formula nor do I perform the calculations but I do know as the guy who burns the metal that if you base a tolerance on a conversion and don't know if or how the numbers were rounded not only is a factory or a power plant going to be out of commission, someone might die when the vessel is compromised. Heat and pressure on metal is an exact science. Which is why I leave it to the engineers.The funny thing is, he NEVER posts links.

I actually think he may be somewhere on the spectrum.
Exactly. When a design is set in imperial units, you can convert into exact or “hard” metric units. A soft conversion would use a rounded metric number, but is less exact, therefore not acceptable for critical designs.I am not an expert.

You're absolutely brilliant compared to the board's slowest. No matter how simple I make something, getting throgh to BSC is completely beyond my reach. I can't define axiom for him. I can't define 1000 for him. I refuse to even attemt to define conversion for him. I've wasted much time.Well I'm slow, so...
Every oil company in the US. The rest of the continent used 1 liter bottles. I'm looking at a Pennzoil bottle from Walmart. Numbers to the left of the site glass are mL. To the right are liquid oz. About half way up on the right is 1 pt. This bottle is a bit taller than the long gone quart bottle. I watched the changeover occurr from 1995-2003. Mobil led the way with Conoco ending the changeover.Dude. it's a simple request.

The British Pound Sterling went decimal in 1970. The 50 pence piece was issued in 1969. The pound was last major currency to go decimal.Short answer. the British are insane. Look at their currency.
Derp. No it’s not, moron. It’s an Arabic number which can be used in either Metric or imperial units of measurements.Oh, for the board's slow. 50 is a hard metric number. I just wasted 5 seconds.
Never said they had to. I said they didn't do it with no documentation. Documentation which you still refuse to provide.As a "professional tourist" I hung around a lot of refineries. My company was big into export. I don't know that the oil industry felt any need to tell the world they were changing to a slightly larger bottle.
Go to bed old man. I would have thought that craptastic scrimmage would have done the trick.You two,,,, KNOCK IT OFF now! 🤓
But hey, on second thought, your continuing drivel over this BS is about to cure my insomnia..... 😉
What are you referring to?Go to bed old man. I would have thought that craptastic scrimmage would have done the trick.
*raises eyebrow*What are you referring to?
I haven't watched any scrimmage recently.... 🤔
If it's not on YouTube by now it will be by midnight.If you were referring to the Gator Spring game, I won't see it until it replays later on in the coming weeks. I also didn't listen to it on the radio, and I haven't read any articles about what they did or didn't do with the Mertz/Miller cluster....
I'm not paying for SEC+ or ESPN+, just to watch Socialist-U screw the pooch some more....
