These two clearly don’t know about titanium.
A metal as hard as my heart
And fractures just as easily
Tungsten enters the chat
But it turns out to be too dense to follow along.
Until it meets some carbide…
And oceangate decided it’s the best material for deep diving.
Fucker so hard no one wants to work with it.
Fuck off tittyboi
Steel is the king
Laughs in tungsten
Steel is much stronger than titanium.
Titanium is a middle ground between steel and aluminum.
steel is an alloy
Are you claiming that an alloy isn’t a metal?
yes
Aluminium
WRONG
Yes, you are.
You’re permitted to believe so.
Thanks for allowing me to hold the correct view 🤷
very clearly the best metal is mercury because it’s the only one you can drink at room temperature
Gallium wants a word.
you need your hvac serviced if your room is 85F
UNCOMFORTABLE
what’s that in real units?
Don’t know what you mean by real unit but here it is in a real non-integer base:
I mean si units
544.67 Rankine
I said REAL units
short-sleeve-shirt-and-shorts°
I’m sorry, are si units too much to ask for these days?
Eating Gallium is like eating M&M’s.
Melts in your mouth, not in your hands.
Really? No one’s on the Tungsten train over here? Highest melting point of all metals. It’s also called ‘the devourer of tin’. Now that’s metal for ya.
Tin will devour itself anyway
Only because it knows tungsten is out there lurking. Waiting. Hunting.
Highly recommend getting a tungsten cube. The density is surprising
People really think some element born within a star or supernova is the best? Even tho none of them even have a Nirvana song named after them? The best ones are obviously those created either during the primordial nucleosynthesis or by spallation, when atoms are hit by cosmic rays in colder zones.
You should sneak into his garage in the night and sabotage all his aluminum ingots by hitting them with a hammer until they crack. When he tries to break into your garage to get revenge, he’ll break his hammer and hurt his wrist because iron ingots are superior in strength. That’ll show him.
The true tossup is actually mercury or lead.
Both insanely useful metals with a massive variety of helpful traits.
And the universe made them poisonous to us as a big “FUCK YOU”.
It’s very annoying that gold is so expensive. Much less toxic and still has loads of great properties. It’s just, you know, expensive.
Yeah, and it’s expensive because it’s …well, expensive. It’s not any less abundant than some other metals or more difficult to extract. We just decided it’s gonna be expensive
I mean, we didn’t just arbitrarily decide that gold would be expensive, we decided it would be expensive because it’s pretty. It seemed like a good idea a few thousand years ago.
I only fly in airplanes made of 100% American steel.
Hey, Elon.
Got bored with twitter?
Don’t deadname X.
I still cringe at the “posted on x, formerly known as Twitter” wording everyone feels the need to use, even almost a year later.
I think we should all just call it Twitter and ignore the name change.
We should all just ignore the platform until doesn’t matter what it’s called anymore.
I hate aluminum too! It’s the plastic of metals.
What, lightweight yet strong? Versatile? Yeah I guess it’s like plastic, except the part where it’s also infinitely recyclable. Just where do you get off on this aluminum hate???
I thought Ozzy was the best metal
Drafonforce
Amateurs! It’s gotta be silver!
- Looks nice in jewellery
- Antimicrobial properties
- An essential component of camera film
- Highly conductive (e.g. used for electrodes and thermal paste in computing)
- Catalyst in many chemical reactions
- Used to make mirrors
- A critical component of solar panels
- The only metal capable of incapacitating werewolves, and also somewhat effective against vampires
Highly conductive
Until it oxidizes, and silver is a complete whore for oxygen.
Who isn’t
I would suck AND blow so hard for some oxygen right now.
Iron and bronze have entire ages of history named after them, so…
This idiot forgot the beer can age
Fuck you, titanium rules.
Everyone knows Titanium is the best metal, fuck these nerds
Titanium is great up until you try to machine it. Now my boy platinum is where it’s at.
You’re doing it wrong then!
Mistborn moment
Aluminum might not be fun. Duralumin on the other hand, is a different story.
brass is tha best change my mind
Copper 👀
