It's been explained to that dork several times but some people are just too dumb to understand that 1000 isn't necessarily a metric number. Hard metric numbers are talking about conversions from imperial measurements.
 
Getting in early on the new page. 😉

I've been waiting for years for the BS-C911's 💩 response/excuses on Bidin's Criminal Ukraine Quid-Pro-Quo, and the lack of investigation by the Corrupt Rat FBI, or any prosecution by the Corrupt Rat JoD, or any Impeachment by the 'cess-pool with no bottom' swamp....
==========

Here's a quiz for ya. Was it Trump or Pedo-Biden that was guilty and needed impeachment over a Quid-Pro-Quo?

If you're having trouble deciding about that, here's the 'out of his own corrupt mouth' truth.

And least anyone forgets it,,, but especially because it annoys some here....

Reality instead of just more BS-C911
💩 ....



Keeping what's important on this BS-C911 thread, front and center....

Report: Biden Administration Considering Pulling Health Care from Veterans to Treat Illegal Aliens = FJB


Did you, or a family member, serve your country with the expectation of receiving the health care benefits you were promised?

Sorry, illegal aliens apparently come first in President Joe Biden’s America.

The Biden administration reportedly is considering diverting doctors from the Department of Veterans Affairs to treat the massive inflow of illegal aliens expected at the southern border this spring and summer.

Hillary Vaughn of Fox Business reported on the insulting slight to American veterans on Thursday, citing a source with U.S. Customs and Border Protection. She quoted the source as saying, “We’re going to take medical services away from people that really deserve that. Who went to combat … to give free medical attention to illegal migrants.” 😡

Use the below link for the rest of the story....
(Trump over-hauled the VA making it much better, while FJB wants to screw us)

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.

You have a reference for this Sunny because in my industry hard and soft metrics involve conversions using rounded and non rounded numbers.

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.

New Zealand and Australia accepts 125 mL bottles of Old Spice after Shave. The US accepts 125 mL Old Spice and the discontinued 118 mL Old Spice.

So they do a direct imperial to metric conversion and then round it up?

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.

Then then how do you get from 118ml to 120 for example you have a wonky number on one side or the other.

With enough room, you add 2 mL to the container. If needed, one orders up a larger container.

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.

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.
 
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. :mad:
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.:rolleyes:

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.

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.

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.

Derp. You’re getting closer but Wrong again, shit for brains. You still don’t get it, but that’s not surprising.

“1000 likes”isn’t even a metric number. 1000 is an Arabic number.

Now when talking about conversions, to convert a mile into meters, a hard metric conversion would be 1609 meters. A soft metric conversion would be rounded to 1600 meters, or the “metric mile..”

You don’t have to take my word for it, I’ve posted several links explaining it to you.



Your nonsense may fool the gullible echo chamber here, but not anyone with any common sense. There is zero support for your statement that “hard metric numbers end in zero or five.” I dare you to prove otherwise.

Just like there is zero support for 1+1=2 being the “simplest equation.” That’s why I like like keeping you around. Your stupid statements make even me seem smart. The tallest midget I guess.

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.
 
Well I'm slow, so...
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.

I actually think he may be somewhere on the spectrum.

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.

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.

The dude gets easily confused and therefore thinks any rounded number is a “hard metric number.” Hence the idiotic statement that “1000 likes is a hard metric number.” That’s literally one of the dumbest things ever posted OTB, and that’s saying a lot.

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.

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.
Short answer. the British are insane. Look at their currency.
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.

Oh, for the board's slow. 50 is a hard metric number. I just wasted 5 seconds.
Derp. No it’s not, moron. It’s an Arabic number which can be used in either Metric or imperial units of measurements.

According to your insane definition, 50 gallons would be a hard metric number. LOL.

And once again, you provide nothing to support your idiotic statements. Because you can’t. You are the Jerry Quarry of posting.
 
Jees-us-krist! 😴

I spent my early years mastering the English system, and then some A-holes wanted to switch to metrics.
😠

But hey, I agree that the whole world should be on the same system of measure.

Just like the whole world should now be speaking and writing in the 'American' language.

It's a reasonable request to reduce world wide communication confusion, although others around the world will have to come around to what makes sense....

Never said they had to. I said they didn't do it with no documentation. Documentation which you still refuse to provide.

Only the slow accept the word of people on the internet at face value.

So until you provide any proof you didn't snatch this bit of drivel completely out of your ass, you are full of shit.

I will literally accept a formula written on a Waffle House napkin and published on the internet by the Daily Kos.

Ive been on every continent but Antartica. That still makes everything I say about anything I've seen my opinion or anecdotal without proof.
