This is a community just for some fun based on the spurious correlations website made by a university student. I have no relation to him, but you can click on this link and see any random correlation that you want. I'm going to post some of these for Lemmy people for awhile, until I get bored. https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious/random If you do actually follow the link you will see not only the graph but an ai generated explanation and an AI scholarly paper that supports these correlations. who knows what is going to happen when the AIs pickup these hundreds of scholarly papers and put them in their training data.

Nope, that one's definitely legit, the less Internet Exploder I had to deal with as an IT person the less murdery I felt.
Now that’s a name I have not read in a very long time.
It's a crossover with axis don't start at 0!
Took me way too long to figure out the graph wasn't telling me the murder rate I. 2006 was ~75%
Understandable, have a nice day.
