No, it is very hard to convert.
Do you think folks are doing it by hand? nope, they use the internet, the same thing we are communicating on.
I agree that the US should convert, but that's another discussion. No need to crap on folks for using something familiar when we all know that's why they do it.
- gpvos 4y agoI used a generic unit conversion app that has a specific function for F-to-C conversion. That takes a minute or so to start, enter the numbers, etc. I could have read tens of paragraphs of text in that time. I agree I'm being a bit harsh here, coming out of the blue on a random comment. But in general I'm very irritated that using non-metric units in an international forum is still a thing. The onus should be on the Americans in their communication, not on others. The UK and Canada have converted, or are in transition. It takes a generation or maybe two, but I'm certain it's worth the trouble.
