Yes. I eventually noticed my mistake and corrected it. 👍Thanks for pointing it out.

Hour isn't the SI unit for time, but it is still accepted as a non-SI unit within the metric system.

What do you mean? I wrote cubed as ^3 throughout the entire explanation.
And in some cases, using metric would simply be worse in daily life.
No?
Like using Kelvin instead of Celcius
They are the same thing. They just use different starting points.
meters per second instead of kilometers per hour
Meters per second and kilometers per hour are both the same system, called the metric system.
seconds in general instead of hours and days
What are you on about? Seconds, hours and days are all part of the same system.
Fun fact: The fuel consumption of a car that needs 10 litres / 100 km (24 miles per gallon) could be simplified to 0.1 mm2
Actually yes. 10 L = 10 dm^3 = 10 000 cm^3. That means 10 L / 100 km = 10 000 cm^3 / 100 km.
To simplify further:
10 000 cm^3 / 100 km =
10 cm^3 / 100 m =
0.1 cm^3 / 100 cm =
0.001 cm^3 / 1 cm =
0.001 cm^2 =
0.1 mm^2
Is it metric? Yes. Is it practical? Not really.
It was already metric from the start before any mathematical simplification was done, so the metric system was definitely practical here.
Is the simplest mathematical form always the same as the simplest practical form? Definitely not, but that has nothing to do with the metric system.
I just downloaded it for the first time and I'm currently using it to type this comment.
It will take some practice to get used to this. 😅 Thanks for the recommendation.
It's really good more people are talking about Lemmy on Reddit. It gives Lemmy more exposure and more and more users are making the switch from Reddit to Lemmy because of it! 🎉
We should all be making posts regularly on Reddit about how to easily switch to Lemmy. 💪
People are more ready now than ever before.
I haven't been a moderator for any community on Lemmy, so I don't know if this feature already exists or not, but I think it would be very useful for moderators to be able merge communities. Users from the old communities should be automatically subscribed to the newly merged one, while the old communities gets removed.
This requires some way for mods to send merge request to mods in other communities, and for those mods to accept that request if they want to.
Every unique post should of course remain unchanged in the new merged community, with all its votes and comments intact. Duplicate posts however should always get merged if they belong to the same user, meaning that now the merged post will likely have more comments and votes than any of the posts it was merged from.
There should also be an option for mods to move a community to a different server.
With this, we can make Lemmy much easier to navigate for it's users by merging multiple similar communities while also increasing the activity in those merged communities since they will now have more users.
Since Lemmy is still growing, a lot of the infrastructure isn't in place yet. This means communities will exist on servers available at the time of their creation rather than the more suitable server for that community that might show up in the future. Ability to migrate communities (and users) from one server to another is essential for Lemmy to stay decentralised.
Jag vill även slå ett slag för dessa sidor som hjälper oss att hitta Europeiskt producerade alternativ till produkter som vi annars är vana att importera från andra kontinenter.
Det är alltid bäst att köpa så lokalt som möjligt för både miljöns och självständighetens skull.
This is a tricky thing to do. I'd say start with yourself. On your journey you will find what could be interesting to which family member. All of them doesn't have to migrate at the same time with the same product.
Small steps is always easier to take.
Plot twist:
8 ingenjörer sammarbetade för att bygga en maskin som orsakar stormar. Syftet var att blåsa omkull Gävlebocken.
"Nu när säkerheten kring Gävlebocken blivit starkare är det svårare att förstöra bocken och komma undan med det." säger en av ingenjörerna. "Nya utmaningar kräver nya lösningar".
Efter en intervju med några av de ingenjörer som var delaktiga i projektet framgår det att de är fullt samstämmiga om vikten av den svenska traditionen att förstöra Gävlebocken, trots övriga konsekvenser stormen kan ha orsakat i landet.
"Tyvärr blir det svårare och svårare för varje år att klara av detta för gemene man. Risken har blivit för stor med alla pengar som kommunen lägger på bockens säkerhet numera. Det krävs personer av lite högre kaliber för att komma undan. Detta är något vi planerat under drygt 2 års tid." säger en annan ingenjör. "Att kunna rasera bocken utan att själv befinna sig på plats är enda sättet."

I love this! I suggested this a while back and I am super happy it actually became reality! This is a gamechanger!
Is it possible to add the option to store all user activity associated with my account locally?
When I go to my profile offline it's completely empty. I can't see any posts I uploaded or any of my old comments, which is a shame since we usually engage with the content that appeals to us the most. Is seems only natural that my own posts and comments should be available to me offline.
I am currently writing this comment whithout any internet connection and really looking forward to see how this comment will be posted tomorrow when I get back to work and connect to the WiFi again. 🤩
Thanks for this!
Update: Trying to post this comment while being offline yesterday just gave me an error message instead of adding it to the "offline actions" queue. I had to post this comment manually after connecting to WiFi.
