Water actually has shitty electrical conductivity.

Just needs a lil salt

Just curious, have you watched the show with the same name as your account?

I guess it’s for kids to help them deal with trauma. I downloaded it due to super high ratings, but I haven’t watched it yet (and might not; I don’t have or want kids, but I like having good stuff for friends with them)

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Never heard of it, but I'll check it out

But then the conductivity perishes as the salt is being spent. Just add more salt, then?

Pure water isn't a good electrical conductor.

Your face isnt a good electrical conductor

[-] [email protected] 87 points 4 weeks ago

Better than pure water for sure.

[-] [email protected] 38 points 4 weeks ago

It actually is. Do you even nerd, bro?

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

No :(

[-] [email protected] 57 points 4 weeks ago

Ah, dihydrogen monoxide

[-] [email protected] 41 points 4 weeks ago

Everyone that ingested it has died. Concidence?

[-] [email protected] 37 points 4 weeks ago

This is false. the correct number is approximately 93%.
About 7% of everyone who ever lived is still alive.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 4 weeks ago

I drank water once and now I'm dying.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 4 weeks ago

Still, you're doing remarkably well for only having drunk water once.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

I drank it twice. But I also drank it once.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

dying of thirst?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago

they all are chronically ill, they will die, just in some time

hydooxic acid

[-] [email protected] 12 points 4 weeks ago

it's got a higher pH than any other acid!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

sounds dangerous

Dissolves everything? Hydrophobic and halogenated compounds would like to have a word.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 4 weeks ago

you are not adding enough water, add more

[-] [email protected] 54 points 3 weeks ago

If you think water is incompressible, you’re not trying hard enough.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I can't see the thing matching your description.

The problem with water is it's heavy af. We need a light water.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 3 weeks ago

Best I got is heavy water….

Water Zero

Only 60 calories!

Fat free water

[-] [email protected] 20 points 4 weeks ago

Idk, have been statistically proven that everyone who come into touch with that material end up dying.

Fun fact, there are materials that dissolve better in fatty acids than water. For example, Menthol crystals extracted from Mint Oils will readily dissolve in other oils but is very picky about its water.

I've noticed that the nerd meme communities here are just as, if not more, pedantic than the ones on reddit

Edit: oh yea that's also literally the first thing I thought when I read the post, whoops, I'm also a pedantic nerd, I just didn't bother commenting it

[-] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Some of us don't want to feel superior, we just want to share.

Not me though. I'm better than all of you. /joke

OG reddit was way more pedantic.

universal solvent

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 weeks ago

Along with the people pointing out conductivity.

Who says water is not compressible? Takes a lot of energy, but the big bang didn't happen in a sea of water.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 weeks ago

My oceanography textbook said so. You'd think the ocean people knew about water. Must be more propaganda from big compress to sell more compression.

most solids and liquids are practically incompressible (when comparing with gasses). there is a relationship between bulk compressibility, shear stress and youngs modulus for solids, which can be extended for liquids. It does not work for gasses

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago

Be water my friend.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

im glad I’m not soluble

Didn't Scottie invent this when the Enterprise had to transport a whale back to the future?
