    The rest of the world would like a word. Do you really think only you people in the US exist?

    Also the equivalent for psi is Pa (=N/m²), usually as kPa or bar (100 kPa).

    Most people don’t really understand either to a great extent, and are just familiar with one or the other.

    As always though, metric wins because of its interoperability with all the other metric units.















  • I’m not saying china doesn’t have problems, but it’s this kind of attitude that sends us down the path of us vs them that I think is toxic and leads to nationalism.

    I have no issue with people criticising things in other countries, just not be absolute about it.

    There most certainly are many not fake things in China that are great. Friendly people, wonderful food, natural wonders (this and perhaps some others excepted, but still), beautiful villages etc.

    Just as there are bad things too, historical and contemporary.

    Only a sith deals in absolutes.

    “Oh this is whack, the park authority/ Chinese government faking a waterfall? That’s pretty shit.” 👍 An opinion I think many could agree with and is a valid criticism.

    “Everything in China is fake” 👎 No it isn’t.
