Yeah it would look like

“Something something woke SJW!!!” This term contains reactionary connotations. Suggestions: We have determined that 6 PM is the darkest time of day that falls within rush hour traffic. Disguise yourself with nonreflective clothing and trash bags and remain prone outside by the white side line to be more inclusive

Musky at least pretends he is an engineer. Surely he would know that engineers prefer metric.

Also, didn’t he grow up in South Africa? Which adopted the metric system in 1970?

His family is from South Africa, but Musk mostly grew up in Canada (which officially adopted metric but as we all know Canadian chuds all wish that they were American chuds).

Canada also still uses imperial for a fair few things (height, weight, apartments are in sqft) because the conversion was half-assed.

It’s all performative. If his fans cared about consistency they would’ve been upset that Tesla complies with china’s government regulations

That cybertruck is basically illegal anywhere but the US.

And he grew up in South Africa, the imperial system should be the one he’s not used to.

South Africa only started switching to metric in 1970, and it usually takes a couple of decades to see ubiquitous adoption in everyday life.

IMO it should mark imperial in red as totally incorrect.

Fabricated whole cloth by the French elites to satisfy their inability to perform simple arithmetic - good and proper!

That must be why customary measurements are consistent across all cultures, since they are defined by use- hang on, I’m getting a call from the foot:

It varied in length from country to country, from city to city, and sometimes from trade to trade. Its length was usually between 250 mm and 335 mm and was generally, but not always, subdivided into 12 inches or 16 digits.

Boy I’m glad we use natural and not arbitrarily defined measurements!

As an American machinist, there is nothing I hate more than multiplying or dividing numbers by ten.

You, a soyjak: Nooooooo, we should base our measurements on the body parts of an inbred king.

Them, another soyjak: Noooooo, we should base our measurements on what a bunch of out-of-touch scientists who never picked up a hammer thought was good.
