1 and 0 if written in binary

emptyother,

It shouldnt really just be high and low voltage.

Unless its fiber optics, then I assume its light strength? Hmm… Waves that are modulated… And now I fell down a wikipedia hole.

Unless it’s on a carrier frequency…

Where is all that yellow?

Test_Tickles,

In the lawnmower, the lights on the house, the flowers on the bushes, and in the giant lake of piss behind the house.

Oisteink,

There’s very little similarity between the pictures. White is the 3rd biggest stack, but you can see it’s not dominant on the data.

To;dr it’s all lies

chaogomu, in More like guidelines

Fun fact;

Fahrenheit and Celsius line up at -40

Fahrenheit and Kelvin line up at 575

Those numbers are not particularly useful, but they are fun to know.

EvokerKing,

I was about to make the same comment. I got bored in math class with a graphing calculator and figured it out lol.

someguy3, in Nuclear power? That's just steam power with extra steps!

Our entire society* has been based on burning things. Then we progressed to… burning atoms.

(*Exceptions I can think of is solar, wind, hydro.)

JohnDClay,

Then we’re leaching off the sun burning atoms.

someguy3, (edited )

Ohhhhh!

Zellith, (edited )

To be fair, the atoms were going to burn anyhow. We just clumped them together to make better use of them.

joyjoy,

Solar farms did start out as using the sun to boil water. Basically mirrors redirecting light to a central point to super-heat a pipe flowing with water.

Oh so that’s what that big central tower in New Vegas was. I never put two and two together.

burgersc12, (edited )

Theres actually been a major increase in solar thermal power stations in the last few years

dangblingus,

ACKSHUALLY you’re not burning atoms in a nuclear reaction. You’re creating a chain reaction of neutrons colliding with Uranium isotopes. No combustion.

FederatedSaint,

Wind and hydro still have to spin a turbine. Solar is the one true stand out advancement in electricity production since we started using electricity.

someguy3,

They spin it directly though, not via steam.

Opafi,

Technically, as long as there’s more than zero percent humidity I guess wind turbines are still powered by steam. And hydro is essentially steam, too, just the cooler version.

Well ackchuwally,

Coal has rarely - if ever - played a role in the formation of diamonds

geology.com/articles/diamonds-from-coal/

Norgur,

Well ackchuwally the comic didn't say that this lump of coal was dating another lump of coal. It says carbon dating, you intolerant bigot! Let coal date whom coal wants to date! Freedom for inter-carbon relationships!

quindraco,

Diamond is usually made from limestone? My mind is so blown right now.

So like, Florida, diamonds all the way down, if we just wait long enough.

You got 11 digits correct (as long as I can count and Wikipedia is right), Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

spoilerYou missed one zero before the one at the end

lugal,

About the spoiler: I didn’t, I just rounded up. It’s a bunch of 1’s afterwards so the 1 is closer than a zero.

Hjalamanger,
@Hjalamanger@feddit.nu avatar

Ok, nice then Congratulations all digits correct 🎉🎉🎉 :)

jmcs, in Data Science

It’s missing the original, before being reduced to data, being completely different from the “story”.

bob_lemon,

Not to mention that the story quite obviously does not fit the data at all.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Well that’s just statistics.

jmcs,

The relationship between statistics and the base facts is the difference between it being a useful tool or the butt of a Mark Twain’s joke.

Yeah, like where the hell is all the red? Either there’s a secret chamber under the house, or there is a little bloodbath murder suicide happening in that house
