The Slovenian PM skated an hour for every goal that Slovenia has scored in Sochi - Polidicks

[QUOTE]The president of Slovenia Borut Pahor has fulfilled the promise, which he promised to the Slovenian national hockey team before the Olympic Games in Sochi. At that time he promised that he will skate so many hours as much as the team will score. The hockey team managed to score 10 goals in Sochi and the president kept his promise. In the hall Podmežakla ina Jesenice he started skiing at 15.00 and managed to skate on ice until 01.00. "This is a huge overexertion, since i am not a top skater. But a promise is still to be held and I will try my best," Pahor said before the start to the grouped press. After the ten hours have passed, his Twitter stated: "10 goals = 10 ur continuous skating. A promise fulfilled!"

He raised also 16.000 euros for young talented hockey players in Slovenia.

16 euro or 16000 euro? [editline]12th April 2014[/editline] also his legs have got to be jelly by now

16000 euros.

I like that guy.

[QUOTE=Pyroknight;44524117]How is using a decimal point the same as using a comma[/QUOTE] It varies from country to country how you do it, you dirty imperialist pigdog.

Holy hell, mad props to that guy. I thought it'd be like 3 hours tops, not 10 goddamn hours.

[QUOTE=Novangel;44524135]Holy hell, mad props to that guy. I thought it'd be like 3 hours tops, not 10 goddamn hours.[/QUOTE] None of us thought that he would do it. But well, he did it.

Lets not use digit separators at all and use scientific notation to make everything easy to read and nice. It's 16*10^3 Euros or, in other words, 16kiloEuros

[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44524275]You are just mad we handed your asses to you in hockey[/QUOTE] No you didn´t. We didnt even had a game against each other :v:.

If you have the first system, how the fuck do you represent decimals?

No breaks or anything? God damn!

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;44524296]All of those are fine minus the first. If you have the first system, how the fuck do you represent decimals?[/QUOTE] You use the other. 1.000 as thousands 1,000 as decimals/1,000 as thousands 1.000 as decimals. In general people need to stop being bitchy and intentionally making a "hurr dur 16€????". 16,000 or 16.000 is going to be 16 thousand whichever way you slice it, having 3 decimal zeroes for no reason is dumber than the seperator in the first place.

[QUOTE=viperfan7;44524449]its because using . for the thousands separator gives ambiguity to the number, as we don't know if the final sets is a decimal or not[/QUOTE]If seperator(.) and country(BritishCommonwealthAnno1800) then wealthstatus = poor

I set my phone to German a while ago, and seeing the calculator swap the usage of , and . has melted my brain a good few times.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;44524296]All of those are fine minus the first. If you have the first system, how the fuck do you represent decimals?[/QUOTE] Here in Belgium I've always learned: 1 000 for thousands, 1,5 is one and a half and 1.5 is one multiplied by five. (To prevent X from being used) Any system works, it's just regular conventions. Who gives a shit.

[QUOTE=viperfan7;44524449]its because using . for the thousands separator gives ambiguity to the number, as we don't know if the final sets is a decimal or not[/QUOTE] So does using , for Europeans. It's ambiguous either way except it's easy to use context to figure it out like I think most people in Europe are used to. Who the hell would write [I]"1.000"[/I] anyway? Whichever symbol is used there, it's got to be a thousandth separator because otherwise they'd just have written 1.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;44524296]All of those are fine minus the first. If you have the first system, how the fuck do you represent decimals?[/QUOTE] In the Danish language, the decimal point is called 'comma' exactly like the grammatical sign. So we use the comma for our commas. 18.742.163,62. Simple as that. You gotta be [I]really fuckin' stupid[/I] to be confused by that, even if you were brought up on the opposite system. [editline]12th April 2014[/editline] There is no real standard, and bringing in any sort of standard for it would be more confusing than just using common sense to figure it out.

this thread got derailed fast man, that PM seems like a pretty cool guy

Jesus christ you people. This is even worse than when someone writes their date in MM.DD.YYYY

[QUOTE=maxumym;44524828]Jesus christ you people. This is even worse than when someone writes their date in MM.DD.YYYY[/QUOTE] the difference is that the 1.000 period system actually makes sense because it's basically identical to the comma system but with different symbols, but the MM.DD.YYYY system makes not an ounce of fucking sense unless you're using a shit spreadsheet

[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;44524292]No you didn´t. We didnt even had a game against each other :v:.[/QUOTE] Oh of course I confused a Slovenian for a Slovakian. Why are BOTH the names AND the flags so similar Can't you guys try to be a bit original???
