Comment on Meanwhile in America
ms_lane@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoWhat is this commie ‘meter’?
Uh, it’s the length a photon travels under vacuum during a time interval between two hyperfine ground states of caesium-133 divided by 299792458. Duh.

Mm science :3 I prefer to think of a meter as roughly 2 light nanoseconds
I love the fact that imperial is legally defined in it’s relation to metric btw :3. Like the US uses metric they just have to abstract it for some reason

Yeah, and you can get Americans to crash out over it.
