Kate MorleyIt genuinely bothers me that this setting doesnβt cause Apple Maps to use metres for walking directions and miles for vehicle directions. A yard is what northerners have instead of gardens, not a unit of distance!

@katemorley@hachyderm.io Surrender to the International Metric System! It makes way more sense.
Pip Gowenlock@cacilhas@mas.to @katemorley@hachyderm.io Oh you want to have an international stubbornness competition, do you?

What about this Scottish song?
"But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles"
To fall down at your door

"But I would walk 800 kilometers
And I would walk 800 more
Just to be the man who walks sixteen hundred kilometers
To fall down at your door"
Yeah.. just doesn't have the same ring to it
Brian Clark@LibertyForward1@beige.party @P4FKoeln@social.cologne @PipGowenlock@urbanists.social @cacilhas@mas.to @katemorley@hachyderm.io but singing 8000 meters and 8000 more could work.
@deepthoughts10@infosec.exchange @LibertyForward1@beige.party @P4FKoeln@social.cologne @PipGowenlock@urbanists.social @cacilhas@mas.to @katemorley@hachyderm.io 8000 metres isn't much more than a parkrun. It isn't worth singing about unless it's a song about a drunk bloke who missed the last bus and has to walk home and falls down at your door.
Brian Clark@foobarry@mastodon.social @LibertyForward1@beige.party @P4FKoeln@social.cologne @PipGowenlock@urbanists.social @cacilhas@mas.to @katemorley@hachyderm.io sounds like you have the concept of your next hit song!
