Weird water molecule if it had only 1 hydrogen atom. Pretty sure we call that ~~peroxide~~ hydroxide (tired haven't slept in days).

Though adding 1 hydrogen for H3O1 would probably win you some nobel prizes

I don’t understand your difficulty with that meme.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

“per”, by the way, roughly means “too many”. [Hydrogen] peroxide is H₂O₂

I don't have one? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠ʘ⁠‿⁠ʘ⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I don't understand your difficulty with that.

How many stars do you think there are in our solar system?

Roughly 2

In other words, the number of stars in our solar system is appxomately e.

Astrophysics, same order of magnitude... That's about right!

What's the second star in our solar system?

Ringo

That's a better punchline than mine so I'm going with it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No one asked but you, so thank you.

Also,
Ringo.

Do you have randombullet blocked or is this some weird federation mishap?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Federation weirdness I bet cause blocked people show as an expandable comment I can never expand and I just... Don't see this.

Weird.
Still a shame very few even wanted to engage with the joke except that one guy who is too pedantic to not be rude.

What's the other star in our solar system?
