Re:Base Ten for Almost Everything by brucedawson on Sunday February 14, 2016 @06:04PM (#11100432)
Idea: since gallons are inherently binary (there are 3*2^8 teaspoons in a gallon) we should use Ki for them. Instead of "I put twenty gallons of gas in my car" we can say "I put 15 KiTeaspoons of gas in my car".

Gallons are more binary than hard drives (eight ninths of the factors are two) so my logic is unassailable.
