NO!HOW!HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE???AAA

sleen,

Its all because of Joe

Zulu,

Who’s steve jobs?

tubaruco, to lemmyshitpost in TIL

technically, because noone has a higher amount of bones but many people have less, this is false.

Greg,

Late stage pregnant woman have a higher amount of human bones

tubaruco,

finally someone that doesnt just tell me there is a very rare disease that creates a single extra bone

anyway yeah if you count pregnant women the average skeletons in a human body is more than one

CarbonIceDragon,
@CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social avatar

What about that one horrible disease where your muscles start turning into extra bones?

HamBrick,

Rarer than getting a synthetic hip or being born without wisdom teeth, for example

tubaruco,

or losing limbs

tubaruco,

those bones dont help much in making a skeleton

Burninator05, (edited ) to lemmyshitpost in TIL

The mode human body contains enough bones to make an entire skeleton. The average human body doesn’t have enough.

Greg,
@Greg@lemmy.ca avatar

The additional ~200 bones from fetuses in late stage pregnant woman would be more than the missing bones from amputees etc. OPs statement is accurate.

jaybone,

Wouldn’t they be too small though?

JaymesRS,

Skeleton size or proportionality not specified.

QuaternionsRock,

You can’t use one unfused half-bone in place of one full bone >:(

ohitsbreadley,

What if we use the little fetus bones to replace some of the smaller adult bones, and take those smaller adult bones to replace some bigger adult bones, and so on until we have a big ol’ femur?

The word average can technically refer to arithmetic mean, median, mode, or range. That’s why you were probably taught them at the same time. That’s also why tests like the ACT tend to have a * at the top that says something along the lines of “Unless otherwise stated, the word average indicates arithmetic mean.”

morrowind,
@morrowind@lemmy.ml avatar

I have never in my life seen it refer to anything but the mean

JusticeForPorygon,
@JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world avatar

Because mean is the most common form of average. But, for example, when referring to salaries, the words median and average are often used interchangeably.

BA834024112, (edited )

This isn’t true at all

Edit: well they may be used interchangebly, but they’re also used incorrectly in that case

dream_weasel,

Are infinitesimally shaved average bones not bones? Idk who is the bone authority responsible for making that decision.

Tremble,

There are a lot of people missing bones, but I don’t think anyone has extra, so….

CulturedLout,

What about people with extra fingers and toes? Parasitic twins?

Goatmom,

Pregnant women as well. Now their human body contains two skeletons, thus raising the average number of bones in a human body by a considerable amount. I would guess there’s probably more pregnant women than there are people missing limbs.

CulturedLout,

Oh yeah, totally forgot about pregnancy. That should count too.

Tremble,

Ok then technically we are all born with an extra set of teeth. That we lose. So a full skeleton contains all the baby teeth as well.

Goatmom,

Traditionaly when talking about the skeleton, we refer to the adult skeleton seeing as an adolescent skeleton have more bones that then fuse. I agree that we need to take that into account, but I don’t believe the statement would be referring to an adolescent skeleton.

Exatron,

Some people were born with extra fingers, and sometimes entire extra limbs.

TheRealKuni,

My wife has an extra rib above her collarbone.

dream_weasel,

Plenty of people do. My sister for example had bones in her feet that never fused and had to have an extra removed. I guess that’s pretty common

webghost0101,

Different perspective: Even if you miss a limb your body contains the full 100% of the skeleton you can find in a person missing that limb.

There still complete human beings even if their body has a unique challenge.

ohitsbreadley,

I appreciate what you’re saying here - people come in all shapes and sizes, with different abilities, limb counts, etc. Every one is a human being deserving respect and dignity.

But OP didn’t say “a complete human being” - it said “a complete human skeleton.”

If an individual is missing a limb, by birth or by accident, they don’t have a complete skeleton. It’s a plain fact. Doesn’t mean they are any less human.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

Actually, the average human body contains more than one skeleton.

https://justsimplymom.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/pregnancy-6.png

evidences,

This depends entirely on how many people there are out there with missing limbs.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

It would have to be a lot considering that a baby has a full set of bones while a missing limb is generally only a few of them.

evidences,

Half the bones in a adult human are in the hands and feet. I don’t know if there’s enough missing limbs to offset fetus skeletons but I there’s a whole lot of bones missing in a double amputee.

MacNCheezus,
@MacNCheezus@lemmy.today avatar

Babies have up to 270 bones at birth (instead of 206 in an adult), which makes up for at least one double amputee (hands have 27 bones and feet have 26 each).

THE_ANON, to memes in About to get drafted

Yeah the pain is real

Gigan, to lemmyshitpost in TIL
@Gigan@lemmy.world avatar

No it doesn’t, because some people are missing limbs or ribs or have artificial joints. So the average body would have slightly fewer bones than necessary to make a whole skeleton.

dejected_warp_core, (edited )

I was gonna say: who is out there rocking extra bones?

chicken,

There’s mutations and hereditary conditions that give you extra bones

bluewing, to memes in Embarrassing all those chumps just buying lightbulbs

Home Despot - a place for wannabe interior decorators. Like Ron Swanson said to an employee at HD “I know more than you.”

People with manly man projects go to real lumber yards where you lean on a counter and talk to a clerk and a yardman pulls and brings you your materials with a forklift and loads them on your trailer - because strapping your load down to a trailer and driving away is a manly man thing to do…No little carts needed.

Limit,

I feel this way about Lowes vs home depot. Home depot for the real projects, Lowes to buy the designer hammer that never gets used…

dream_weasel, to lemmyshitpost in TIL

Despite all the “AKcHUaLLy” comments this is probably true.

If the body has 206 bones and the global average is like 205.7, a bone that is even partially complete is still a bone, and it is probably so close to 206 that the missing parts are negligible and distributed across the skeleton anyway. Think about it, how many people do you know that are missing an appendage or a bone by defect? I bet it’s less than 0.5% of everyone you know.

Take my upvote.

Venator,

But it still wouldn’t be an entire human skeleton, as there’s more to a skeleton than just the number of bones.

dream_weasel,

So by this logic, if you age and develop arthritis you no longer possess a complete human skeleton?

CanadianCarl,

I have 2 neighbours is missing a leg, and a family friend missing a finger. I am one of the outliers.

Greg,
@Greg@lemmy.ca avatar

Did these people lose their limbs before or after they met you?

CanadianCarl,

I only known them without limbs.

dream_weasel,

That is a lot of missing bones. How many people would you estimate that you know though? I went to a small high school and I bet out of 500 total I knew 300 just from school. There are lots of family and coworkers and stuff that drive that number pretty high even if you know some amputees.

CanadianCarl,

Not many, i am an introvert.

Sidhean,

You’ve finally done it. You out-akchuallied the pedantic nerds, becoming, yourself, the final gatekeeper of pedantry

Ledivin, to lemmyshitpost in Peak organization

1M songs is absurd. How many does Spotify even have?

CobblerScholar,

Yeah thats unfeasible as fuck, that would be listening to and liking over 800 songs a day for 10 years

ChicoSuave,

Liking an album adds all the songs on the album to Liked Songs. Its annoying as fuck

BigBananaDealer,
@BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee avatar

for me it doesnt add any song to liked songs, just the album to liked albums. maybe its a desktop thing because on mobile i have to hit the 3 dots then hit the add all songs to playlist button

BurnedOliveTree,

About 70-80 mln

Son_of_dad, to lemmyshitpost in Peak organization

I mean the liked songs list let’s you separate by genre. When it knows what genre it is, and no Spotify, the Damned are not a pop group.

Microw,

Wait what it lets you separate it by Genre? Need to check how to do that when I get back home

Son_of_dad,

I can do on my list of liked songs and pick “punk rock” at the top and it’ll only show me the punk songs in my list

Matriks404,

Where exactly? I don’t see this feature anywhere being even mentioned.

Son_of_dad,

I just pick one of the genre tabs at the top and it’ll only show me the songs on my list that are that genre.

Screenshot_20240117-153916

Matriks404, (edited )

I don’t see any tabs both on my mobile device and desktop and I have similar amount of songs as you. Could this functionality be only limited to English language? I have my apps in Russian and Polish respectively.
