I thought the thumbnail was an AT-ST…
- Where’s the fucking wire?!!!
- WHO THE FUCK CARES?
I WILL LITERALLY SPLIT THE AIR ITSELF
YOUR PUNY AIR CANNOT CONTAIN ME MORTALS, YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ME GREAT PILONS IN VAST SWITCH YARDS TO APPEASE ME!
(Angle grinder sounds)
Wait… Is that a copper bus bar and a pipe? PATHETIC! NO BUS BAR IN A PIPE CAN MATCH MY ELECTRIC FIELD STRENGTH, I WILL FLASHOVER THE MOMENT YOU ENERGISE -
(Hissing sound of a gas filling a pressure vessel)
What are you doing? WAIT, IS THAT SF6?! NOOOOOOO YOU CAN’T JUST SMOOTHER ME IN AN INERT GAS WITH A HIGHER DIELECTRIC STRENGTH, I HAVE RIGHTS! NOOOOOOoooooo
(Muffled screams)
👏👏👏
It’s like one of those lichtenburg patterns, except in air.
Also High Voltage. This human body will do just fine.
slaps head of a man This bad boy can fit so many volts!
“Gee, this squishy skin-sack full of water sure has a lot of tasty electrolytes. Might as well use this as a conductor!”
Noted, high voltage is potato energy.

Ah shit.ya beat me to it. [email protected]
Oh. Well guess now you have to take me to a gay bar?

Voyager displays these a bit weird
Haha my client handles text boxes correctly.
It’s Zalgo text
I think that’s the intention
With sufficient voltage, everything is a conductor.
With insufficient voltage, everything is an insulator.
Neither may be conducive to those roles, but everything has some conductivity and some resistance (super conductors being a possible exception).
How about in vacuum? Do you get fancy arcs or glows or what?
In typical conditions, an electrical arc forms when the electric field strength exceeds the dielectric strength of the medium (like air). In a vacuum, there is no medium to ionize, which theoretically makes it difficult for an arc to form. However, electricity can still arc in a vacuum under certain conditions, such as when high voltages are involved or when the electrodes are extremely close together.
I was thinking neon lights. I mean that’s basically an arc, just spread out. I think I heard that there’s a glow in vacuum too, just not as nice as with neon.
Well, a quick search turned up this: Vacuum Arc
However, like the above comment, it seems to refer to freeing electrons from the conducts, so, IMHO, you no longer have a vacuum.
If you could somehow maintain a perfect vacuum; I wonder how this concept Virtual particle would come into play (or if it would at all).
Always fun stuff to work with, DI water or oil are great insulators, though one sucks to clean up if you spill it 😓
Just lather yourself up with that oil bb don’t let it go to waste
Diala works great for… Cooking… Steaks. I don’t know where to go with that because of how nope it is.
Hmm that sweet PCB taste
High frequency! It Mega hurtz!
Low frequency! It kill a hurtz!
Ultra high frequency! It giga hurtz!
Pretty much any high voltage high frequency thing really hurtz. It’ll kill you at different rates but it’ll hurt the entire time.
Dang, this meme sparked quite some discussions.
👉😎👉
Still the path of least resistance
Or is it the path of most convenience? 🤷♀️
Sounds the same to me
When you cast Chain Lightning at nothing.
Everything is a wire if the voltage is high enough.
Every machine is a smoke machine if you use it wrong enough.
Every problem is a nail if you hammer it hard enough.
Oi! As an engineer I worked damn hard to trap that magic smoke in the machine only for you to let it out and try perfectly good components. Treat your machines with respect, they’re getting smarter by the day and they’re forgetting less and less!

The dog breed?
I went to a zoo the other day. Only had one animal, which was a dog. It was a shit zoo.
Not dog!
Is pAnDa!
In the least, it had 3 types of shit:
- dog shit
- human shit
- bullshit
Does better as a shit zoo for sure
I was interviewed for a position where lady handed me a pen and asked if it was a conductor.
I replied: "if the voltage is high enough, yea. She scoffed. Needless to say, I didn’t get the job.
that just sounds like a weird interview.
“you’re qualified for this position if, and only if, you can answer a useless question with only a rudimentary understanding of the subject and no critical thought”
if true, you dodged a bullet
Assuming that you can draw a triangle from any 3 lines, draw a triangle from lines of length 1, 2 and 3
Honestly I think you gave the experienced adult answer to what was a high school or even middle school science question.
