Low Quality Facts

I bet my fiancée that this picture of our cats could get 10 billion boosts on Mastodon.

She said she doesn't believe me. She said there's only 13 million accounts on Mastodon. She said there aren't even 10 billion people on Earth. She said it concerns her that I struggle so hard to comprehend large numbers.

Let's prove her wrong everyone. Boost away and show her just how awesome the Mastodon community is.

@lowqualityfacts Um, she's right though. I think mastodon is less then 10M users? Good luck..

@lowqualityfacts the alt text is a bit misleading because only Fishy is on the framed stitched art while Ruby is on the wood floor beside it and him. anyway i would have boosted this even if it was just Fishy and Ruby with no boost request lol

@lowqualityfacts Your fiancée MUST be wrong about the population of the planet because my local McDonald's says, "Over 100 Billion Served". Either that or it's proof that we're being visited by aliens!

Innumerate mouth breathers will be the reason our grandchildren consider cats a food group. I'ma callin' it.

@lowqualityfacts

It is a little-known fact that a BILLION is a thousand Millions. (that's— 1/10% —NOT 1%)

People who argue about the significance of statistics often get this wrong.

10 billion is THIRTY times the population of the U.S.

If your fiance marries you, they are a fool. But I suspect you knew that.

@lowqualityfacts A Finland study indicates there are actually more than 12 billion people on Earth.

Earth Could Have Billions More People Than We Ever Realized

Is our little blue marble of a planet actually a lot more crowded than we thought? A new study suggests we've been significantly undercounting populations in rural areas, because of the grid-based method typically used to count people.

I don't know what a "billion boost" is, but I can't imagine it would be that hard to get 10 of them.

I’ve got to remember what little C I once knew, get used to my new Linux os again after 10 years away from it and perhaps re-learn a little BASH scripting, and the I’m gunna hack your instance to give you 54 billion-squillion boosts!

Wasn't there a Mastodon account with the display name "10 billion", so that with a couple of carefully timed boosts you could see
10 billion and 8 others favorited your post
