minus-squareTheRealKunilinkEnglish2•2 months agoBase 12 is better than base 10. In an alternate universe we use it for everything and it’s a utopia. There is world peace and no one is hungry. 12 is evenly divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6. 10 is only evenly divisible by 2 and 5. (Fun fact, Tetris in that alternate universe doesn’t have the stupid Z and S Tetronimos. People are happy there.)
