maybe this is a demographic issue of you being way younger than me (ignoring regi, he is an outliar)

okay but fire it is that way in euro

i think i just spend more time online around autistic people

maybe it is an autism thing

that also have the instictual

type what you think

I do not talk to autistic people other than you people

i will actually read it as dollar then number in that order if the sign is in front of the number because my european brain can't comprehend it

you seem to misunderstand that the brain, for me at least, will not correct $8 because I do not pre-think out "I'm typing $8" I'm as I'm thinking it, having my fingers go "8 dollars"

at the same time

like youre speaking

Yeah I also think it out as I am typing it

because when you speak you dont go

as if I was speaking it

DOLLARSIGN 8

just when I get to 8 dollars my brain knows it is $8

I am not typing faster than I can think, I think faster than I can type

obviously i know the correct way but why would i fix it

same as u

people know what i mean

its more easy on the brain

to just go at the speed of light

than care if some autistic nerd goes

maybe if I doubled my wpm 8$ would make more sense

ERMMM THE DOLLAR SIGN COMES FIRST BUCKO

but I already type faster than most people anyways

(not signaling you out by that one)

this could have been avoided if xander instead just typed it fully as eight US Dollars 😔

should have specified 8 CAD

although maybe it's canadian

I type it correct on kb but wrong on phone

I wish keyboards would bring back the cents sign

I actually like that one

¢

and that one does come after the number Pika, in "real" non-internal-narrated English

actually, Fire you got me thinking

i wonder

I think it's almost entirely America, that's so anal about the $ coming first

does the currency sign go in front because the cent comes after

$0.95 or 95¢

are the two "official" ways

well but like the cent symbol applies to pretty much every currency so how would you differentiate it between dollar and euro for example if you only use the cent symbol

yeah but I'll see Euros/Yen/Rubles with the symbol after the number

WAY more often

that's true

Hate when they use the comma to denote a break for change. I'm sure it's common.

yeah, that's the one thing I hate about Euro numbers

that's just because we use commas for decimals, not periods

that's a wholly american thing

the decimal being a period just feels right

Fuck you Canada, we're invading

Canada is inacurate

we use .

Quebec

they do not count

you can have them

100% quebec lol

yeah but that's why

why the fuck does peru use both

what's the lore

good question, that's the only other one

apparently it's only their currecny they do with .

everything else is a comma

odd choice

the weirder one, which I hate

is

1 000 000,00

at least 1.000.000,00 I can follow

the spaces are bad

yeah the spaces are autistic

If I saw the first one I could figure out it was 1 million

the second one I would assume was an ip

i also would just not use points lol, get ready to count the 0s if i'm writing a long number lol

well you're in luck Pika

Canada is #1 on that list

Yeah, that is how I write things except no comma use a .
