Comment on Linux boots in 4,76 days on Intel 4004parent

Commas are used for the decimal point instead of the period character in many countries, including many European countries.

I'm from one of those European countries and still also read it as it taking over a year to boot...

We do, but most of software engineers out there hate it and use the dot, for obvious reasons (CSV in particular).

Having said that, I like our Swiss decimal group delimiter: 1'000'000.
