  • xkcd #3106: Farads

    Jump

  • I used to teach AP physics to kids on the weekends. One asked me why Farads were so big. I had to explain that there’s a fixed ratio between Farads, Volts, and Joules. One of them had to be crazy big or crazy small.

    See also Coulombs.

    Caps are especially scary because they can develop their own charge through static electricity, so large value caps are often shipped with their terminals tied together.

  • You are correct. I was assuming they'd be more like 10-keys. Google images shows they're usually in the phone orientation.

  • Honda successfully launched and landed its own reusable rocket

    Jump

  • The issue is not going up, it's going over. If we only cared about the private sector getting people into space, that happened on a fully reusable vehicle twenty years ago.

    The problem is getting things to stay in space. Not trying to Elon-stan here, but getting a rocket into orbit is many fold more difficult than just getting into space.

  • Trump Mobile's made-in-US iPhone 17 competitor is really made in China

    Jump

  • My point is that I think people are giving this project way to much credit. If they were basing it off a phone, it would be trivial to apply some textures to an existing photo or something. Hell, the specs say it has a "5000mAh long life camera" whatever the hell that means. None of it is real.

    The fact that it resembles any real phone is sheer coincidence. Especially considering they don't list a processor, just numbers that anybody can make up.

  • the T1 closely resembles the T-Mobile REVVL 7 Pro 5G

    No it fucking doesn't. Will people please stop spreading this.

    The phone is just a shit photoshop job. All three cameras depicted are identical down to the pixel. Here's one camera overlaid on another with a difference filter:

    The lighting in the "render" doesn't even make sense.

    The shadows imply that the camera "bump" is actually recessed since the shadows are along the top edge. Also where are the side buttons on the reverse?

  • I Tried Pre-Ordering the Trump Phone. The Page Failed and It Charged My Credit Card the Wrong Amount

  • cosmetically tweaked

    It would have to be super tweaked considering the phone you referenced has four cameras, and a notch style front camera.

    My bet is that this is a 10 second photoshop job and the actual phone will look nothing like that.

    I mean if you do a difference blend of two of the cameras, you get a perfectly black circle (minus some blending at the edges):

    .

    This means that the cameras are exact pixel-perfect copies of each other arranged in that order by photoshop. They don't exist on any phone.

  • I always think about this. Like a lot of the engineering youtubers I follow do some pretty dangerous stuff. They take the necessary safety precautions, but I have no idea how insurance can work when you're flagrantly disobeying OSHA regulations.

    As an independent operator, you can abuse yourself in a way that legally nobody else is allowed to.

  • In an attempt to answer your question, there tends to be a lot of misinformation following events like this. Often footage doesn't even need to be AI or altered, it can just be footage from other events that looks similar that's posted in good faith by people trying to spread the news. I assure you some of the clips flying around at the moment are from the George Floyd protests, or even a sports hooligan riot, or from events that didn't even occur in this country.

    At least in theory (and theory is doing a lot of heavy lifting with my attempt at answering your question), a news publication has an obligation to in some way determine the veracity of what they're publishing.
