Also in Sweden wood used to be sawn into lumber measured in inches with 2 by 4 being the most common. The old Swedish inch was 24.5 mm instead of the 25.4 mm used in the US though.
Going metric these measures became 50 by 100 mm instead. But these measures were the green wood and raw sawn. After drying it shrinks a bit.
The wood sold nowadays is usually planed or surfaced some way shrinking the size a bit more, so the standard 2 by 4 is actually measuring 45X95 mm.
Some googling gives that the same story applies also for the US, 2 by 4 (1½X3½) are 38X89mm after drying, green measures are 40X90mm
Seems like US saw mills are actually working in metric until the wood goes on sale.

The question is: Are you willing to abandon one of them?
Does your answer depend on which one of them?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Does it run on Linux and a toaster oven? I can't game unless it's on a toaster oven.

I hear that Steam runs on Linux. Have you ever tried Steam?

That would be a kettle, not a toaster oven. I can see where the confusion would come in here

Plus, would you really want to play a game on / with Talkie Toaster[^]?

I installed it once but then uninstalled it on Linux. It was just too much for me. Like I have a PS5 and Switch, so if I get the itch to play Mario or something I'll just use those.
Although, recently while on my latest Linux kick I did install Albion Online on my laptop, but my character sucks in it because ya know... Zig ain't gonna learn itself and homeboy needs his Node app to run faster.

I don't like snipers.
As a matter of fact, I do my best to hide from them.
