Fun fact: if you do that 42 times, the piece of paper will be so thick it will reach the moon
1mm * 2^42 = 4'398'046.511104 km
Distance to moon: 405'500km
I'm sorry I ever doubted you. I shall immediately undo my downvote.
What kind of upside down ass country/region uses apostrophes for thousands separator?
Very sorry for you you aren't able to handle swiss supremacy 😞😞😞
I'll pray for you 😞😞😞
Sweden does. As we use a comma (,) to separate units from decimals instead of a dot. It's annoying. Some programs like Excel freaks, and wolfram alpha thinks you're using coordinates.
That would most probably be Switzerland. Perhaps a referendum can be set up to change that?
Actully no. A referemdum can only be taken against a law by the Government, meaning to stop a change and Not to cause one.
There is the initiative, but it can only change the constitution, not laws itself.
Australia?
Took the words out of my mouth but you were way more diplomatic
