minus-squareHobbitFoot linkfedilinkEnglish22•1 day agoBecause 2:00 = 1:60 Or are we going to implement metric time?
minus-square@Lost_My_Mindlink4•1 day agoI get the 2:00, but shouldn’t it be 120? Or am I dumber than I thought? 60+60 still = 120, right?
minus-squareazuthlinkfedilinkEnglish6•23 hours agoIt’s not 160 (seconds) it’s 1 (minutes) **:**60 (seconds). My microwave always keeps the : when I input time.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•edit-21 day ago1:60 = one minute and 60 seconds, or two minutes. 120 would be parsed as one minute and 20 seconds, or 80 seconds. Took me a bit to get too.
