Dihydrogen monoxide has a 100% fatality rate. You shouldn't joke about it.

A single water molecule has more hydrogen atoms than all stars known in our solar system (totally stealing this joke)

Fuck me that took 3 reads to understand. Might need a top-up in the old coffee department.

Didn't get it... Are you implying that the Sun doesn't count?

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

We only have one sun. But there are two hydrogens in H2O

How many hydrogen atoms are in a water molecule?

[-] TheAvarageNerd@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I wanted to counter this with the fact that you and me are both still alive, so the rate is only approaching 100%, but probably never quite there. Then I did a safety google, and got to learn that fatality rate apparently doesn't care about the time until death. So as long as I don't assume I'm immortal, your fact still holds true. But then I remembered that some jellyfish and sponges are considered to be be more or less immortal. Which raises the question: do we count beings which will most probably die out due to the expansion of our own sun as part of that 100% rate?

A surprisingly large portion of all humans who ever lived are alive today (the first result I found says 7%)!

I think we are approaching Ship of Theseus territory.

But more specifically I was referring to the human rate.
