These two clearly don't know about titanium.

But it turns out to be too dense to follow along.

Until it meets some carbide…

Steel is much stronger than titanium.

Titanium is a middle ground between steel and aluminum.

Are you claiming that an alloy isn't a metal?

[–] bi_tux@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Never heard that before, what's the reasoning? Given that they contain metallic elements, have metallic properties, have metallic bonds, and many are colloquially referred to as metals, what makes you think they aren't metals?

[–] bi_tux@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)
  1. I was kinda trolling

  2. They're not Metals in the context of pure chemical elements

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah yeah of course it's not an element, though I don't think the original post was about the best elemental metal

[–] bi_tux@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

idk, I just assumed it at first, since alloys are usually supperior, so the best metal would be neither iron nor aluminium, but since anon's fav metal was iron... you know
