minus-square@breadsmasherlinkEnglish6•1 month agoNot defending ai at all or anything but why is M = 1000 in this case, when K is usually 1000? Like I would assume 1KCF would be 1000CF and 1MCF would be 1,000,000CF
minus-square@HikermickOPlink8•1 month agoThe Roman numeral M=1,000. Greek kilo (K)=1,000. The only plausible explanation is the local sewer district is run by Romans.
