Comment on Just a little bit more
OfCourseNot@fedia.io 4 days agoThe unit of pressure in the SI is, in fact, the pascal. 100 psi = 689.5 kPa. For whatever reason we use bars for the tyres, tho. My car tyres run at 2.3 bar, which is a nice and easy number to remember not like the equivalent 33.358679678 psi, so ugly and difficult.

Me when some projects I’ve been on decide to use bar as the preferred unit with two decimal places typically shown: My sibling in engineering, at that point why not just use whole number kPa 😢
SI master race.
Of course I’ll take bar any day over anything non-metric.
