Nah, it’s like that on most (all?) Slavic languages. It’s метр in Russian for example which is exactly metr just in Cyrillic.

The Persians got them from the Indians.

Romans got like 80% of everything they stood for from the Greeks.

A joke goes: The Greek invented sex. The Romans later improved upon the idea by introducing women to it.

It is similar in that they use characters from their alphabet as numerals but not exactly the same way as the Romans. Greek numerals are decimal, based on powers of 10, just like Roman and Arabic. The units from 1 to 9 are assigned to the first nine letters of the old Ionic alphabet from alpha to theta. Instead of reusing these numbers to form multiples of the higher powers of ten, however, each multiple of ten from 10 to 90 was assigned its own separate letter from the next nine letters of the Ionic alphabet from iota to koppa. Each multiple of one hundred from 100 to 900 was then assigned its own separate letter as well, from rho to sampi.

The USA

Btw I use Debian

Yes, it is.

And I give it a 0/10 on having a 3.5mm connector

Most unusual

Peculiar

I mean that’s not a programming problem that’s just a webdev is shit problem

Good.

I hate to break it to you, but the name America as it was chosen by Europeans was meant to be the name of the continent.

The name USA was chosen by unitedstatesians when creating the country. A stupid mistake. Everyone else managed to pick a name, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Argentina… but not the USA.

Spanish has it: estadounidense (unitedstatesian)

Other than that, it’s no one’s fault but the USA’s they gave their country such a stupid name (stealing the one of the continent)

I know, I was joking

Because so many were stolen?

Central Europe: a term invented by the less eastern eastern europe so they stop getting called eastern europe

Stealing cars

romania (and the rest of eastern europe) have almost non-existent theft rates

That’s because all the thieves went to steal in the west
