minus-squareMisterFrog@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·11 days agoThe rest of the world would like a word. Do you really think only you people in the US exist? Also the equivalent for psi is Pa (=N/m²), usually as kPa or bar (100 kPa). Most people don’t really understand either to a great extent, and are just familiar with one or the other. As always though, metric wins because of its interoperability with all the other metric units.
