Basically that weak contact before the device finishes being screwed in would cause a lot of arcing which would definitely cause a short circuit and would definitely trip your breaker almost constantly. The reason lightbulbs can be screwed in is not so much that it’s a convenient way to design an installable electronic but more that lightbulb companies wanted to create a design that would be so easy to replace any person could do it without any training.
So Edison hired a team of engineers to design an easy and safe application and they made the screw in application such that the contact would only get close enough at the very end of screwing and so that none of the metal would be able to contact human skin, avoiding electrocution and minimizing arcing.
For literally any higher draw application this would cause arcing so intense it would flip a breaker or possibly destroy the device and cause a fire. If you want a real life example just take a portable heater, set it to on and plug it into the wall but make that plugging motion last 3-5 seconds. WARNING you will at the very least flip a breaker and at the worst cause a fire and destroy your wall outlet, so don’t actually try this at home lmao
He’s looking to get that good ol’ fashioned German eugenics going again.
I paid for Netflix, cancelled it and got Disney+ instead when they cracked down on password sharing. I am more than happy to end my subscription to Disney and go full pirate, I don’t care and I live in Canada so I’ll never face repercussions.
I’d love to support the creatives but seeing all these strikes it’s not like the execs are paying them livable wages anyways. They complain about not making enough money on streaming then vote to increase just the executives pay by insane margins annually, I can see through your deception execs.
If you are going to hoard your wealth so will I, and when the economy dies cause we are all hoarding our pennies I won’t feel bad for you while you look up from the bounds of the guillotine.
Of course this comes from the wall street journal lmao straight propaganda

This is incredible news. Windows 11 is a fucking travesty filled with bloatware, I recently had to reinstall windows due to a driver corrupting my nvme and switched back to windows 10 and my god the performance boost was actually insane. I run dual boot Ubuntu on my main laptop, and straight Ubuntu on my server host laptop and my work desktop.
Hmmm yeah that doesn’t make sense but I’m too lazy to research into it cause I just woke up and have to marinate some chicken
Small government taxation of the rich party
I can’t remember, I didn’t take the time to screenshot it haha
I’m gonna get a lot of hate for saying this but I WANT there to be ads on Lemmy, for developers of apps and hosters, I want there to be a way to fund the fediverse without everyone needing to pay money out of pocket. If you don’t want that that’s fine I don’t care but I want more people on Lemmy contributing more and it being free and still being able to support full time developers without being dependent on donations is a huge hurdle that will make or break the fediverse IMHO
Edit: to add onto this a lot of the people who cry about data security are not constantly running a proxy server with a VPN, I doubt they have an independent routing firewall, they probably use unsecured applications all the time, there are very few people on here where a Lemmy app will be their biggest data security flaw. 99% of y’all are not Mr Robot please stop pretending to be
The other day I was on all and there was fucking porn without any NSFW filter on it on some cumsluts community, no co-workers were around thankfully but it was a good wake up call that all is not a place you wanna be unless you are at home.
We will need an entirely different type of AI that functions on an inherently different structure to get past this hurdle, but yes I do agree it will eventually happen.
I never said we always question ourselves I just said that AI can’t so your entire reply doesn’t apply here
Yeah but humans can use critical thinking, even on themselves when they make shit up. I’ve definitely said something and then thought to myself “wait that doesn’t make sense for x reason, that can’t be right” and then I research and correct myself.
AI is incapable of this.
I mean, if your not corporates it would count as being your personal data would it not?
The sun’s core being filled with a quark plasma soup instead of, for example cotton candy, is also an assumption that is not evidence-based.
It’s almost like we as humans can use logic and reason to determine things to be extremely significantly probable without having proof in our hands.
