minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 day agoI don’t get it for football fields or other ‘anything but metric’ units which is what I was going for.

minus-squarefaythofdragons@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 day agooic, yeah. When I try to convert “football fields” into meters, it gets it confused with sqft.
minus-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 day agoA football field is 100 yards, so just try “100 yards in real units” if you’re genuinely curious.
minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·edit-21 day ago I use noai.ddg and don’t get the converter thingy. Tried going to regular ddg and don’t get the converter thing, just regular results. I probably turned off a setting somewhere.
minus-squarebigbangdangler@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·21 hours agoReally curious what the pattern is here. I don’t get the converter on noai either.
minus-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 day agoI’m getting it intermittently too, for what it’s worth. Depending heavily on the unit. For example, I tried and realized “100 yards in real units” doesn’t work, but “100 feet in real units” does.
minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 day agoI don’t want to ask it yards. I want to ask it in ‘anything but metric’ units like football fields and Olympic sized swimming pools. Didn’t try regular measurements before, but yeah now I see it when I use those.

minus-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 day agoTrue, but: When the “football field” is used as unit of measurement, it is usually understood to mean 100 yards (91.44 m),
