Oh, so you’re just reconfirming you don’t speak English. Ok. Best of luck, we can try again in a few years. I can link you some Simple English channels if you’d like?

And you’re wrong.
Just because some niche unit uses metric prefixes doesn’t mean that that unit is “in the metric system” as language is used.
Learn to use language pls.
Weird how when you open that “metric system” link your pedantry is nowhere to be seen, almost as if by and large “metric” refers to the SI-system, isn’t it? Oh I’m sorry, you can’t answer that with “yes”, because it would mean that you stop pretending like you don’t know what I mean, which you simply can’t do.
Lol, you’re the one who’s arguing youre right, despite me clearly stressing that I know that if we’re superanal pedants you could technically make the argument that “metric system” can also refer to non-SI units which use decimal prefixes.
That a lone doesn’t mean you we’re right. See that “metric system” link there? Give it a click, would you, and then rethink on who’s being pedantic.
You haven’t told me anything interesting. I’m well aware of things like the attempt of France to change the time to powers a decimal system as well. They didn’t. Time is still in SI-units and that system is colloquially known as THE METRIC SYSTEM.
Like I said, you’re not exactly wrong, per se. (But you definitely are now, being such an annoying pedant while ignoring the very simple points I made.)
So you’re just gonna ignore everything that’s not inline with what you’re saying? Yawn. Perhaps try rereading my comments.
Automakers using a unit doesn’t make it metric.
Colloquially “metric” means the SI-system though. It’s not all prescriptively correct terms. Hell, even the name isn’t, as the French and English couldn’t
So I’m not goanna say your wrong per se. But you’re not exactly right either
What are you on about? The metric unit for power is the Watt
As a third generation professional taxi driver; bull-fucking-shit.
I mean, it’s coming at some point, but their plan here is like the an ad executives version of reality. It’s not gonna match anytime soon.
Don’t know, never taken an regular über either.
You misspelled “shove”

Is this going to kill Onlyfans?
Or is the market decidedly because Onlyfans is about personal creators and thus it’s more meaningful than porn?
But when short AI videos become so good you can’t tell if you’re being catfished, will it feel the same?
Yeah that headline seems like capitalists trying to calm down the masses.
And who, besides the CCP, is arguing that China isn’t just as capitalist as other large market economy countries despite calling itself socialist?
What is sad is people like you who can’t back up the things they say, and don’t even try to.
Holy shit you can’t be that childish.
Okay, let’s go with “socialist” then because you’re so childish that you’re pretending like the form of socialism China is known to claim to be isn’t communism.
If you have to pretend to be that stupid, then perhaps you’re not in a good position, argument-wise.
everyone perceives China to be some socialist giant
No they don’t.
You’re not the only one with functioning eyes.
I don’t even remember seeing a person actually arguing China is in any way communist. Just like people don’t argue that NK is a democracy despite them calling themselves one.
Yeah
“The higher, pretentious form of stupidity stands only too often in crass opposition to [its] honorable form. It is not so much lack of intelli gence as failure of intelligence, for the reason that it presumes to accomplishments to which it has no right … The stupidity this addresses is no mental illness, yet it is most lethal; a dangerous disease of the mind that endangers life itself. … [S]ince the ‘higher stupidity’ consists not in an inability to understand but in a refusal to understand, any healing or reversal of it will not occur through rational argumentation, through a greater accumulation of data and knowledge, or through experiencing new and different feelings … We may say that the reversal of a spiritual sickness must entail a spiritual cure"
Oh it’s available for free as well. Like on purpose.
Cheers. Read some plot overview or smth seems cool yeah got to read that/those
