We joke but oxygen is a caustic poison and when it came on the scene, evolution practically had to start over

I thought this will somehow relate to rust programming language

Dragster39,

What oxygen does to your lungs is what Rust does to your brain

ZILtoid1991,

Sodium is a dangerous explosive, choride is a poisonous gas, yet we put the mixture of two into our food.

Raise awareness of sodium-cloride!

uis,

That’s why breathing pure oxygen is bad idea

If oxidation didn’t happen, you’d suffocate. 😌

Aux,

No you!

brown567,

Be sure to drink plenty of Coke to dissolve the rust your body builds up from breathing!

Cethin,

Not just drink, inhale.

helpme,

Is Pepsi okay?

Karyoplasma,

Check the label. Anything with sulfuric and phosphoric acid is good for rust removal. The reason why it’s in cola is simply because without it, it would be way too sweet from all the sugar.

helpme,

Isn’t it the opposite? Soda would be bitter AF cause of the caffeine and the carbonic acid is added to give it the fizz, then they dump a ton of high fructose corn syrup in.

Aux,

No, it’s too sweet because big soda brands are targeting Americans first and Americans just love too much sugar in all foods. There are plenty of non American sodas in Europe and they have only a fraction of sweetness.

helpme,

Interesting, what’s a common one that the average person would consider good?

Aux,

Dalston’s is amazing and is available in every supermarket in the UK. No sugar, no sweeteners, just carbonate fruit juice with some flavouring. One of my favourites.

Fentimans is a big soda brand and they do add sweeteners, but their drinks are nowhere as sweet as Coke etc.

baseless_discourse,

Jeez, imagine coding in rust, that can’t be good for you.

lseif,

its apparently safe

baseless_discourse, (edited )

Yeah, that is what “the government” tells you!

uis,

Prepare buckets of water for melted processors

cobra89,

I mean it’s not wrong, there’s a reason antioxidants are a thing.

leftzero,

Seriously, though, when those blue-green fuckers came up with oxygenic photosynthesis and started shitting oxygen all over the place they killed practically everything else on the planet, the bastards. Paleontologists call it the Oxygen Catastrophe or Oxygen Holocaust.

DestroyMegacorps,

Jeez man this oxygen addiction is too great cant withstand 30 seconds without oxygen

I can do at least 45 seconds up to a full minute.

Rust on the Myrtle Beach ferris wheel has also been shown to reduce fertility levels of crabs nearby, causing a dramatic drop in their population and California Bill 34 was passed to drastically limit how many can be caught, devastating the local fisheries!

For more information, Google “Rust ferris crab rule 34”

I googled this and that’s enough internet for today.

Wait until OP learns about dihydrogen-monoxide.

KillingTimeItself,

there are three constants in life.

taxes, rule 34, And oxidation.

PiratePanPan,
@PiratePanPan@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

the fact that I made a rule 34 joke about this without even seeing this comment is so great

KillingTimeItself,

great minds think alike, or something.

LoamImprovement,

So I know it’s a joke, but isn’t this why dietary antioxidants are good for you, is because they literally help inhibit the oxidation of your body?

lauha,

Also pure oxygen is bad long term

zagaberoo,

Oxygen ravages electrons all day at the end of the electron transport chain and nobody bats an eye, but you steal one pair off some DNA and everybody loses their minds!
