Pure water isn’t a good electrical conductor.

Your face isnt a good electrical conductor

LostXOR@fedia.io on 30 May 20:05 next collapse

Better than pure water for sure.

It actually is. Do you even nerd, bro?

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)

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

I thought it was an Almost Famous reference.

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

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

I drank water once and now I’m dying.

blackbrook@mander.xyz on 30 May 21:14 next collapse

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

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

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.

Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world on 30 May 22:10 next collapse

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.

peoplebeproblems@midwest.social on 30 May 23:50 next collapse

To be fair, ive seen what the ocean can do to carbon fiber tubes. If it can do that and still not compress, its pretty damn incompressible.

Donjuanme@lemmy.world on 31 May 06:03 collapse

Yeah, it’s been 15 years since I’ve taken oceanography, but the density of water is determined by its temperature.

Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world on 31 May 06:51 collapse

Density is certainly changeable in water with temperature, but density isn’t exactly the same thing as compression.

TIL A waterjet cutter pressurizes the water to something like 90,000 psi and it gets about 14% more dense. I always thought those things just had the water highly pressurised, but not actually compressed.

Donjuanme@lemmy.world on 31 May 07:28 collapse

I want to posit that because water isn’t compressible at forces we experience commonly, it doesn’t mean it isn’t compressible. For 99.999% of the water rules we concern ourselves with water should be considered incompressible, but there are exceptions to every rule

sga@lemmings.world on 30 May 22:31 collapse

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

daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 30 May 21:34 next collapse

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

Semjaza@lemmynsfw.com on 31 May 05:03 collapse

True, but we also tested many other materials across thousands of years and the death rate of contact with dihydrogen monoxide only exceeds the baseline death rate with immersion of the oral and respiratory sections of the visage. A property shared with most other substances, especially in liquid forms.

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

finitebanjo@lemmy.world on 30 May 23:39 next collapse

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

If you are better you won’t be finite.

Well now I want to know what they were being pedantic about…

piranhaconda@mander.xyz on 31 May 07:23 collapse

Pure water isn’t a good conductor, it needs other stuff mixed in to be a good conductor. Not sure why they deleted their comment. They weren’t the one being pedantic, they were complaining that other people in this thread had no sense of humor for calling out the mistake in the original pic.

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.

Sort of. He was just carrying the AI’s assistance. He was really good about ignoring all those obvious but totally invisible cameras. They would never have invented with it without the assistance. Or at least we wouldn’t know about it or it would be some other thing added to the picture and taking place til we forget and the whale sends their assistant to help Arthur step up the medium and expand his 'verse a few …mentions.

I’ve always hated “incompressible” when talking about fluids. It’s just shorthand for: doesn’t compress much under pressure.

In engineering unless you’re dealing with insane pressures, when something is “incompressible”, assuming it is is good enough.

But it’s still misleading so I don’t like it haha
