minus-squareRentlarlinkfedilink38•3 months agoMake sure to make the specific term “Computer Ounce”, or co. oz.
minus-square@DahGangalanglink12•3 months agoBetter yet, just use “cooz” as the “common unit” Then it’s proportioned following fluid ounce measurements from there. e.g. “coc” (computer cup) is 16 coozes.
