- Comment on Why does this diagram on how CMOS switching show the ground voltage rising? 1 day ago:
This is just my 2c as a fledgling hobbyist and in no way an expert…
but ground isn’t magic. It’s just more of the circuit that’s not intended to have an elevated voltage. The voltage spike is induced on the line just like any other inductance issue. It’s important to be aware of what actually happens in a circuit instead of working off of odd assumptions, like “ground is always 0v”.
- Comment on In light of recent events, I'm really starting to wonder about Reddit, /u/MaxwellHill, and Aaron... 1 day ago:
All of that can be separately true without any conspiracy tying it all together.
The world has plenty of terrible people in it that want to diddle kids. The capitalistic model of BS is very often anti-left, but not for conspiratorial reasons: They just like money and control.
There’s no need for a grand conspiracy for most of those points to never the less be roughly true, except the first two. I’m certain Maxwell had and has plenty of better channels than reddit for finding and contacting traffickers. You don’t get that successful using a fucking public forum…
Similarly, Aaron probably had plenty of other reasons to be unhappy. It’s not a terribly uncommon way to go on purpose.
We all know Reddit and Spez are a cesspit. That takes no speculation at all. They always wanted shitstirrers off the site, because they wanted to monetize the shit without all the stink.
That’s how the world works. Welcome to capitalism, where the least honorable are made to get ahead. You should try to do something more productive than trying to tie a handful of terrible people together, though.

It’s explicitly implied by the entire conversation? If you well-aktually someone when you’re not even going to disagree with the point, then you’re just being a dickhole muddying the waters.

Your willful disengagement with the obvious truth is beyond pathetic. Sad you fucking goons do not understand the most basic things about bigotry.

Do you think Nazis practice that level of nuance when they’re rounding up people for death camps?

Simple: They’d be misinformed on Hitler’s religion.
Though again, if you think someone not being genetically of Jewish decent would spare them while they were living in a practicing household, then you’d be similarly misinformed on how bigotry functions. Especially when it reaches the point of actually herding up people under a fascist leader.

I’d say most are queer, not gay. It’s unfortunate that society pushes queer men in to the gay umbrella because most people don’t understand the damn spectrum.

If that picture of him posing with his shitass grin in front of the McDonnalds in the White House didn’t do it, or posing in front of a church with an upside down bible, he definitely feels no shame.
- Comment on What if tRump is Secretly bisexual but forced to be deeply ashamed of it like the rest of his generation? 2 days ago:
You’re right. They did not.
The obvious implication was being a spiteful, self-hating bisexual that contributed to making him awful.

Being a Jew isn’t about genetics. It’s a fucking religion first and foremost. Do you think Hitler really cared about lineage when he was clearing out Jewish homes?

No, but they kept saying it, which helped bury their other messaging. Given how insanely uninformed most voters are, what message do you think most of them got? Especially with the pile of lies from Trump and other Republicans clouding things up?
- Comment on How likely do you think game streaming as DRM is to become a thing? 1 week ago:
It works when it’s local, because the ping can stay low. Try it over a shitty US internet service provider from a town that’s a few hundred miles from the nearest data center and it’ll be a different story.

They kept running on, “we’re not Trump!” instead of much of anything good to actually promise their constituents.
- Comment on Aliens Probably Exist - But They’re Staying Silent For a Reason 1 week ago:
I mean, even if there were many civilizations, I’m betting that any that are smart enough to explore the cosmos have realized one or multiple of the following:
- It’s possible to ‘explore’ a massive amount of detail without leaving your home system.
- Any civilization that can communicate over vast distances also has vast capability to deliver power to an acute area.
- Any civilization on the cusp of 2 is capable of ridiculous levels of distruction, and it’d be wise to make sure they’re totally peaceful before making them aware of you.
… Also, I’m a firm believer that humans and other megafauna are, well, mega. Humans are insanely massive on the scale of life as we know it, and life may not need to become so massive to never the less spread out. For all we know, Earth is a battlefield of life that is successful in the grand scheme of things, and humans et. al. are like the Death Stars of the ancient civilizations that are very much still alive.
(ok ok that last bit is very hyperbolic but it should still convey the idea!)
- Comment on Aliens Probably Exist - But They’re Staying Silent For a Reason 1 week ago:
They wouldn’t receive the signal if they’re at the same tech level. Radiation from our communication tapers off well below background levels at 100ly. Maybe if they got lucky and had very, very sensitive instruments aimed our way at the right moment, they might detect something that didn’t fit background, but our power output pales in comparison to the cosmos.
Just look at all the tricks scientists have to pull to communicate with Voyager, and it’s not even outside of the frigging solar system, yet!

- Comment on If "James Bond" is a codename, would a hypothetical female operative filling the same role receive the same codename? 1 week ago:
Good call on avoiding the live remakes. I watched a few when I had the free oportunity and the time to waste. They’re soulless trash that feel empty compared to the animated disney originals.

Well, you have to ask yourself before making comments like that… Would the story be bad because it had a black woman in it? Or would it be bad because a soulless megacorp would rip any and all meaning out of the script regardless of who starred in it?
If it’s the foremer, you’re being racist. If it’s the latter, why mention a black woman?
- Comment on If "James Bond" is a codename, would a hypothetical female operative filling the same role receive the same codename? 2 weeks ago:
and yet that would fit the designation discussion going on. Interesting how you want to turn it in to a racist shitpost instead of discussing it like someone with more than a lonely braincell crying out for attention.

- Comment on Mexican Government To Tax Violent Video Games It Says Make Kids Violent 2 weeks ago:
Definitely both. Training people to believe things without evidence, or worse, “because I said so”, is in fact bad for humanity.
- Comment on Space is beautiful 2 weeks ago:
That’s highly unlikely basically because of the inverse square law. Even tightly focused beams dissipate quite effectively over light-hours, let alone light years. We’d be lucky to catch a single photon from our past selves over any significant distance.
For reference, look up how weak the signal is even just coming back from the moon when people try to hit the retroreflectors with lasers. Or how crazy weak the signals are when they reach Voyager.

Clout chasing? Do you mean doing collabs to advertise his new ventures?

They’re specifically saying they want to pick which ever spartan they want. It’s not pathetic for the source of the imagery, but for the post itself.
- Comment on They let me pick, did I ever tell you that? Choose whichever spartan I wanted... 2 weeks ago:
You … want Trump to be a Spartan?
ROFL!! That’s pathetic even as a joke. Especially at this point…
I expect more self-respect even of Russian trolls. At least depict Trump as the whiny little controlled bitch he is.

Yea, child abuse isn’t funny. Satirizing things absolute morons do is funny.
