The steel that I cut has thickness measured in millimeters, the program wants it in fraction inches, and the torch spacing is in decimal inches. It's a catastrophe but Im getting pretty good at in/mm conversion
Coloradan here. This tweet was a joke response from the sheriff's department to a previous incident where they described a large boulder the size of a large boulder blocking the road.
Update: I was wrong. The officer meant to say "the size of a small car". The "larger boulder the size of a large boulder" tweet came later as a joke reference to this one.

Americans will use anything but metric smdh.
My feet are 0.83 feet long
You can get around those rules by spelling it wrong.
Pheet.

Whatever king it was had really big feet though.
I hope you are joking. There are no decimals in standard measuring systems. Decimals are a Communist plot. ;-)
83/100 feet
Unless you're doing any kind of precision manufacturing, then it's decimal inch notation.

Been wondering why people just upload with “image”.
I try to always add useful alt text.
I'll definitely try and remember to do it moving forward, I didn't know about that feature.
I don't see any alt text in yours when I click the image in my mobile client.
It's showing up in the html, maybe your image viewer doesn't show it?
Probably.
Sync supports alt text on xkcd at least, not sure if it does for uploaded images.

Probably meant to write 'the size of a large car' originally?

I read coruscantian at first and was thinking about the incident where half a ship shaped ship dropped on us the last week
I imagine a Venn diagram with small boulders on the left side and large boulders on the right and in the middle the one on the image
It's not just a boulder, it's a rock.
Do you smeeeeelllllllllll what it's cooking?
I just realized I have a giant cat the size of a small cat...
Nature is amazing!
Would you rather fight a large small boulder, or a small large boulder?
This reminds me of the joke about the little person psychic who escaped jail.
They're a small medium at large.
Flows a bit better if you just use little psychic instead of little person psychic. Or maybe short psychic so it's not as obvious.
Looks something like 50 capybaras big?... more?
Are we talking volumetric capybaras or massive capybaras?
50? 50! I can't imagine that large boulder the size of a small boulder is the same size as 50 of these?
::: spoiler spoiler :::
Is it heavier than feathers tho?
What size of feather?
XXL small.
Then no.
This is what happens when cops are in charge of their own social media.
Nah, this is what happens when society is more concerned with sensationalism than factuality.
Bould of them to assume they know sizes.
It was a little boulder, such a little boulder, but it reminded me of a large boulder, yeah just in miniature size.
148 millimeter 78?
Highway 145, mile marker 78.
Oh... Well that's just annoying.
It is. I'm American and millimeter was my first thought as well
I too come from the land of Fuck You.
Ho there cousin!
Fortune favours the boulder.
So, medium?
No, it's clearly the size of a small boulder
Is this Bob the Boulder?
