I suggest you read up on how the metric system works since it's apparent that you don't know jack shit.

Yes, I know that you use your own fucked up flavour of the Imperial system.

The metric system is objectively a better system which is why you guys use it when it actually matters (except the times you fuck up because you use two different systems, like with the climate orbiter.)

FYI: the metric system isn't really "made up". All SI base units are defined by physical constants. It's also a logical system while the Imperial system was dreamt up by some mad lad.

This entire argument is obviously ridiculous from both sides but the main difference between the metric system and the Imperial system in this context is that almost everyone uses the metric system while pretty much only the USA uses the Imperial system.

So the Imperial system can be blamed for any faults of the USA. But the opposite is ridiculous since that's the standard. That would be like blaming Hitler on legs.

And yes again, it's incredibly ridiculous to blame anything on a system of measurement but if you are gonna do it the Imperial system makes way more sense to blame.

Racism isn't a defining characteristic of all metric users though .

What do you want your clothes to smell? What's the point?

IMO fabric softener is utterly pointless but my main problem with it is that it can degrade some clothes faster.

At least some materials like those in some training clothes don't like softeners enough that the washing tag explicitly says that you shouldn't use it.

That's very possible.

Pretty sure GTA V use(d) SVN or something like that. I remember reading the source code and being surprised that they didn't use GIT.

I don't think it justifies putting remote streams as a whole behind a paywall. But I suspect that the feature is very widely used since it makes remote streams work out of the box regardless of your setup. It's also turned on by default.

Requiring a subscription for remote access is actually fucking insane, they don't have any bandwidth costs associated with that other than authentication so ???

They have provided a free relay service for years that makes it possible to access a server even if there are things in the way like CGNAT. That service had a low bandwidth limit but undoubtedly cost them money, so yes. But yes, they should have just moved that feature entirely to Plex pass (there is already a higher bandwidth limit for Plex pass users)

Browser apps are very annoying though. The support for some codecs (like HEVC) is usually worse in a browser.

I would assume that someone competent would use actual chess pieces.
