Oh okay so 9 women can have a baby in 1 month after all. Neat.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

No no 9 women can have a baby in 81 months

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Oh right, because PEMDAS, mb mb

That plastic bag estimate is off by a factor of 100. Obviously this isn't meant to be taken seriously but it still feels like misinformation. Someone will see that and decide it's true.

What do the plastic bags break down into when they decompose?

I am under the impression they don't decompose at all, just break into smaller pieces.

[–] ObtuseDoorFrame@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 days ago

Based on what I've read, you are correct, and plastic might never really decompose. It breaks into smaller and smaller pieces which are stable enough to stay plastic essentially forever. That 1000 to 2000 year thing that I read about contradicts some other things I've read, so it's pretty confusing. I need to track down that article and clarify this.

The best thing we can do as a species is eliminate as much plastic waste as possible.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

The duration for a plastic bag to break down primarily depends on the type of plastic used, and a number of environmental factors.

There are plastics that actually break down in a few years, other plastics are in the centuries to millennium range. On top of that, it depends on the environment, too: acidic, basic, wet, dry, protected, exposed, temperature, etc.

Sure got my hopes up about Cleveland

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

OK, its official: I'm shifting my stock portfolio to cryogenic companies. I will take a 15,000 year nap and wake up to a pure world or die trying

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

why do you want to get rid of your one and a half cursed armor ?

[–] Godric@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What? That's staying with me under ice. You'll have to pluck my cursed armor off my corpse before I take it off! (I die if it's ever removed)

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 3 points 3 days ago

ah I see so that's why the knight name

Lmao, the grandpa one is savage

Unless your grandma was Marie Curie

Can someone explain the neutron star to me? I thought the heat death of the universe would put a cap on that.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That also said the pain of a breakup would end after 6 months 😔

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

It says decompose, not end. It's just now part of the soil, forever. Seems about right

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 3 points 3 days ago

I'm glad they included Cleveland. Never been, but sounds like a great place that should last that long.

[–] notreallyhere@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

pretty sure a broken heart takes longer

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago

How many teeth does grandpa have?

[–] superweeniehutjrs@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Cleveland Ohio is decomposing much faster than that, based on my travels there years ago

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 days ago

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 2 points 3 days ago

Apparently if Grandpa were not embalmed, he’d decompose to bones in a satisfyingly symmetrical 9 months.

[–] guy@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm also wondering about the two teeth.

What's the original image?

It's obvious plant so it's probably on some sort of noticeboard but the OG image has been cropped
