Fun Otter Fact

  I would beg to differ:

  Semiconductors work by having electrical conductivity that can be controlled and modified, allowing them to act as either conductors or insulators depending on conditions. This is achieved through a process called doping, where impurities are added to the semiconductor material, creating regions that can conduct electricity more easily.

    Okay but listen, if you’re an Asian small-clawed otter, or a Neotropical otter, you’d be expected to know that. We’re talking about the North American river otter here, and everyone knows what bumpkins they usually are.

      Here’s the thing. You said a “North American river otter understands semiconductors.”

      Is it in the same subfamily as the other otters? Yes. No one’s arguing that.

      Listen bub, us North American River otters can be engineers, too. It’s just that societal structures that hold many of my fellow species back. I don’t appreciate the generalizations.

      They aren’t bumpkins, they’re just far more likely to major in pure math or biology.

  TIL I am probably a North American river otter.

  Key word being probably. You never know.

  and most humans are unaware of how to fish, and catch oysters with their bare hands.

  source

  • Tedesche@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    “Catch” oysters? Because they’re so quick and spry?

  But has anyone tried to teach them?

  • lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Have you?

    • queerlilhayseed@piefed.blahaj.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I tried but for some reason they keep cavorting in the sun and water all day.

      Maybe they are trying to teach me a lesson.

  So am i. Does that make me a north American river Otter?

  • hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Yeah.

  I mean, you know why you need all these security to go into a Fab? To hide the fact that all of our chips are secretly built by otters, who are all in a cult managed by the deep state and Joe Biden.

  I think you have mistaken me for someone who builds a dam

  I’ll not stand for this pro-seal propaganda my chair is really comfy

  source
• partial_accumen@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  This is a bit of a misnomer. While North American River otters have zero knowledge on field-effect devices, they have a good grasp of junction devices such as transistors. It would not be surprising to anyone that knows otters that they can be bi-polar.

  Am i sad because I’m empathizing with a North American River Otter who looks sad or am i sad because the North American River Otter is probably unaware of how semiconductors work? Either easy North American River Otter deserves better.

  How much trouble would the human race be in if they figured it out?

  source

  • captainlezbian@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Not much. I don’t think they have much access to gallium

    source

    • Madison420@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Depends on the otter gallium does exist in sea deposits and just generally dissolved in ocean water.

  The look of cluelessness on his little furry otter face really sends it home for me.

• tired_n_bored@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  That’s why the world is failing. Otters would rather build dams instead of attending college and it shows

  source

  • AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Otters don’t build dams. That’s beavers. Otters will happily squat in an abandoned beaver dam though. At least until it falls apart from lack of repair.

      No, they are secretly hoarding all the 2 nm process node to make DIMM DRAM Dams.
