minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 hours agoDoes it work for football fields to real units? I use noai.ddg and don’t get the converter thingy.

minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 hours agoI don’t get it for football fields or other ‘anything but metric’ units which is what I was going for.
minus-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 hours agoA football field is 100 yards, so just try “100 yards to real units” if you’re genuinely curious.

minus-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·6 hours agoTrue, but: When the “football field” is used as unit of measurement, it is usually understood to mean 100 yards (91.44 m),
minus-square[deleted]@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 hours 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-squareTheTechnician27@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·12 hours 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-up0·11 hours 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.
