At least is not mph, that shit makes no sense.
US miles, UK miles or nautic miles? Imperial units are always crap (feet/s ?)
feet/s is a gooner unit. Change my mind
Foot pound? 😏 Yeah, I’m hoping
The NASA crashed 2 Mars probes, proving that imperial units are crap.
m/s is the best, everyone know aprox. what is an meter and an second to know the velocity, but not so easy with km and a hour… 50km/h seems slow, but not so 13 m/s.
Why not just go with the universal and unitless proportion of “c”?
Or, for your slowpokes, parts per million or billion of “c”.
I just use % personally
How fast you are going as percent of c
That’s a lot of leading zeroes. Or you have a really awesome motorcycle with rocket engines.
It’s just easiest, it’s capped at c and 0 so all meters just need to go to 100… If you don’t want exact measurements you can always normalize the value
Or, for your slowpokes, parts per million or billion of “c”.
cc, or centiC
What about μc or nc, a bit umder 300m/s & 3m/s, respectively.
Microlights and nanolights. Love it.
‰ per mille (thousand).
km/s
That’s the same unit, with a decimal multiplier for fast things
m/h

Us joggers using min/km
yes, officer, this person over here
Fuck now I gotta run from the law as well
That’s good and all. But we should go deeper.
For instance, what’s the conversion factor to planck lengths per unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition of the caesium 133 atom (second) or maybe even per Planck time unit?
Hotter take: pronounce it KILL-o-meters and not kill-AH-meters.
Ki-lom-e-ter is best
Idk why my brain is the way it is, but I can’t say “KILL-o-meters”, it always comes out as “key-LO-meters”
Miles “Tails” Persecond
