Two is the only even prime number, which makes it the oddest prime of them all.

If you can't type an umlaut it's spelt fuenf

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I was flabbergasted when I found out you can spell German B (can't type it without installing additional keyboard) as just "SS". My teacher didn't like that. I wonder why 🤔

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In Switzerland (where German is used as language), the ß is not used, so everything is "ss".

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Last time we used ss people didn't like it.

[–] Jumi 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's SS, please don't disregard capital letters just because you use English.

[–] postmateDumbass 5 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't want to upset the German high command would we?

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

Fun fact: 'ß'.toUpperCase() is 'SS'

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

it's an outdated implementation then. As of the 29th of june 2017, the correct output should be ‘ẞ’

I'm guessing the original post was prime numbers and this was just slapped together.

it's interaction bait and I fell for it 😁

I'm worried about the 1265 people who liked that comment more than the one person who made it.

You only need something in common for the 6 first odd numbers and "teen" for it to be true for all odd numbers.

I can't believe no one has posted the infamous Tumblr thread yet

I don't get it... why did they say"two"?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

The joke is that they thought they found an exception to this observation, and while they're right that two does not have an e in it, they're wrong in thinking it's an odd number

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Perhaps this will enlighten you:

And in case you don't feel like watching that: It's a meme harkening back to the stupidity displayed on a well known tumblr post, one of the many displays of which was somebody insisting 2 was odd.

Also see this Ace Attorney version, which is hilarious and the first place I'd heard of it:

Because replies correcting your obvious mistake drive engagement.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (5 children)

It's not correct in Swedish because of Sju (7) and Nio (9)

Does π count as a number? I mean there's no e in pi.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago

Odd and even (aka parity) is only defined for integers.

[–] SkybreakerEngineer 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There are 1.1557 e's in pi.

It's also not odd, so that doesn't work. But to answer your question, it is a number yes.
