Ah, so there are 3 options- discomfort, death, and nutrition. Therefore, every time you eat a fungus, you have a 1/3 chance of dying. Thanks for the info!
NotHowStatisticsWork
True; some mold is actually medicine. Therefore you only have 1/4 chance of dying.
1/5, some are hallucinogens
Yeah? Then successfully explain how statistics work, smart guy. But I warn you, there’s a 50% chance you’ll fail.
It's actually 50% because it either kills you or is doesn't. Those are the two options.
You both sound correct. No idea who to trust, so I guess there's a 50:50 chance that it's 50% or that it's one in three.
Oh, you like math? Name all the numbers.
Just as believing in a deity gives you a 50% chance of salvation.
