Anything metric > anything imperial
post
At least is not mph, that shit makes no sense.
US miles, UK miles or nautic miles? Imperial units are always crap (feet/s ?)
Us joggers using min/km
That's good and all. But we should go deeper.
For instance, what's the conversion factor to planck lengths per unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition of the caesium 133 atom (second) or maybe even per Planck time unit?
m/s is the best, everyone know aprox. what is an meter and an second to know the velocity, but not so easy with km and a hour.. 50km/h seems slow, but not so 13 m/s.
Hotter take: pronounce it KILL-o-meters and not kill-AH-meters.
Why not just go with the universal and unitless proportion of "c"?
Or, for your slowpokes, parts per million or billion of "c".
Or, for your slowpokes, parts per million or billion of “c”.
cc, or centiC
I just use % personally
How fast you are going as percent of c
That's a lot of leading zeroes. Or you have a really awesome motorcycle with rocket engines.
