Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•it's inconvenient that the number of days in a week is a prime number.
1·2 days agoThat’s probably the most pragmatic approach.
I also like this one system founded on primes:

1·2 days agoOkay, that makes sense. Yeah, the overall number of extant digits would increase six-fold. I was trying to express the idea that the number of digits in an operation would decrease.

2·2 days agoIt’s way too long for a week, yeah.
Just to be an insufferable pedant, I would like to point out that a base-60 system would only have one digit from 0 to 59. So technically fewer digits than with our current system to express the same range of values, and as we all know, technically correct is the best kind of correct.

Although, the rope next to tub suggests that this may be pro bono on his part.

355·11 days agoSwitzerland? Really? Canada makes total sense, but Switzerland?
The same Switzerland that stored holocaust gold and other stolen assets for Nazis, that Switzerland?
The same Switzerland that denied women the right to vote until 1971, that Switzerland?
The same Switzerland that maintained anonymous bank accounts until 2013 to shelter tax evaders and other criminals, that Switzerland?
Yeah, most of the countries at the bottom of the list belong there, but there’s some major bias if Switzerland is the standard to which other countries are compared.
I’m not entirely convinced, but I see the potential merit. Maybe let’s just let that greased idea pig loose and see if a farmer tries to wrestle it.
Dear god, what was the worst?
Has real “go to your room” energy.
“Um, thanks?”
Also:
“You’re getting a time out!”
“Phew! Thanks for that. I could use a break.”
“Okay, you can come out now.”
“Hmm? Oh, no, I don’t think so. The timer says I still have five minutes left.”
