Thanks for the info! Did you get an advance view of next week's episode or something?

Okay, interesting. The version I saw must've missed a scene where they confirmed those things, gotta send some email to Netflix Nordic about this.

In the Benelux version you see Hector shoot the good samaritan.

From the Better Call Saul thread, I guess it doesn't make sense if you don't watch that show.

i like how your timestamps make it look like everyone's 15 years old and writing into a magazine

― Will M., 15.

Was that pointed at me?

IMO the European way of writing dates like DAY/MONTH/YEAR is completely logical: from the smallest unit to the largest. The American ways of starting with the second smallest, then the smallest, then the largest, is weird. Though I guess there's some explanation to it that has to do with some filing system?

I think it's the period after the day part that makes it confusing

Ah, okay. So in the English-speaking countries you can't writer "fifteenth" as "15."? In here adding the period after a number means that it's an ordinal number.

You know, I think I learned that in high school German but promptly forgot it and thought it was just a weird stylistic quirk

huhtikuuta is also a lovely word.

The period also makes sense, instead of going 1st 2nd 3rd 4th it's just 1. 2. 3. Easy peasy.

Europe is always right with these things. The metric system, people. How many pounds does a cubic foot of water weigh? Huh?

62.4 pounds

12 parsecs

we measure liquids in pints, quarts, and gallons, not feet!

a quart of water is about two pounds, pretty easy to remember

All my references to weights and measures on ILX from now on will be exclusively in IMPERIAL units, just to annoy Frederik.

otm

No Euros either, it's pounds, shillings, guineas, crowns, groats, ha'pennies etc

The only acceptable way to write a date is ISO 8601 format, eg 2016-04-15.

yeah! I didn't know how the date format worked there before, it is cool (but it did confuse me at first... when I see "NAME, NUMBER." I think age e.g. "Will, 12."

See this is what i'm talking about. I can sort these alphabetically and get a chronological list. Perfect.

By "this is what I'm talking about" i don't mean I was literally talking about it. I was just saying OTM.

#actually the ides of april is the 13th

month-day-year is nutty as hell. what a bunch of characters. you guys crack me up, you guys in belize, the federated states of micronesia and the united states, you crack me up

love belize

speaker box!

I don't mind the American, etc. way of setting the date. Kind of a in a Section II, Paragraph 3 of the Document sorta way.

But no periods in phone numbers. Your phone number is not an IP address.

It always bothers me when people don't pronounce Casablanca with the long 'a' in every syllable as intended.
