The fuck is a fluid ounce?

Damn liberals and their woke-genderized measurements smh

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Fluid ounce is volume, ounce is weight. Liters vs grams.

Ah wonderful, so I'm sure one fluid ounce of water weighs precisely one ounce weight wise?

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Almost identical, my understanding is it’s slightly off since it’s such an old measurement. But for everyday purposes it’s the same.

surely this uses more aluminum

[–] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 months ago

It may use less aluminum, as the top and bottom surfaces are much thicker

People drink 64oz of that stuff in a day like it's nothing lol

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's a standard sized drink can in pretty much all of North America. Anything smaller is rare/unusual (though occasionally available).
