Even with your simplistic fossil fuel car in your example the alternator within can also be used as a motor.

Not by “simply reversing the flow” it can’t. You’d need to remove and replace many components, just like the example of changing an Rx to Tx system

An LED (or photodiode used as one) is a fairly simplistic device compared to an assembled receiver / transmitter. Just like you can burn gasoline in a car but you can’t push a car to turn the engine to make gasoline - it’s a complex system that really only works one way.

if you invert the flow of electrons, a receiver becomes a transmitter

Ehh not really. That’s kind of like saying if you invert the flow of photons, your eyes work as flashlights.

“It could be possible with some changes” the changes would amount to removing the receiver and replacing it with a transmitter. In this specific case I’m not sure if a transmitter already exists at this antenna and it’s definitely possible one does, but that’s not a guarantee at all

Magnetic field strength is proportional to current * number of turns.

Using a resistor should work but so should using 20gauge copper if the number of turns is the same.

Humors a valid coping mechanism, but normally not when the victim is the butt of the joke. The post just leaves the same bad taste in my mouth as rape jokes.

Sorry to ruin anyone’s fun but it just comes across as gross to me and generally shows a lack of empathy

It is and it shouldn’t be

Fuck making jokes about sexual assault on men tbh. Haha funny she mutilated his genitals

Frankly sounds like his beef should be with his wife. That guy didn’t drain her bank account, she did.

Pretty sure ACARS doesn’t include [X is typing] messages

It’s available but not flourishing last I checked. Just to be clear I’m not denigrating it at all, I desperatelywant it to flourish. I pay for nebula, too, as well as patreon for many of my preferred creators, in the hopes that they can explore alternatives to YouTube. Hell, I pay for floatplane and dropout too, as much as I hate the fractured environment it’s creating, I want the most direct way to support the content I watch, but YouTube is almost certainly still my most watched platform

I just keep hoping it gets bad enough for something better to flourish in its place

I was going to ask about resolution as I haven’t tested it myself. Considering my screen is 32:9 (7160x3840) I’d be pretty disappointed with a 1920x540 recording

The fact that they’re normalized is exactly the trauma I’m talking about, it IS incredibly messed up!

How did the active shooter drills for students help that? Tbh they may have helped cause the ideation.

Lockdown drills possibly for staff I can maybe get on board with, but for students? The universal trauma is IMHO not worth the off chance that it helps in a (still extremely rare) active shooter scenario

First thought, someone’s gonna nut into that

Wow those are some major changes! It’s been a long time since I’ve tried emulating PS2, looks like it’s time to try again

Do you have evidence of them being useful?

Logic won out, understanding that blasting kids with scary media constantly was impacting their mental health negatively. Almost like we also shouldn’t be doing things like freaking kids out with useless shooter drills too…

“Why can’t more Americans afford to stop working?” Hmmm I wonder if it has to do with all of their wealth being extracted by capitalist hoarders

Thanks, don’t mind if I do
