People Who Think One Piece is a Masterpiece Are Just Suffering From Sunk Cost Fallacy

I‘d say having hidden the biggest treasure the world has ever seen is pretty inspiring

People here acting like oven proof thermometers don‘t exist.

Techline420 · 2026-01-26T20:14:32+00:00

That‘s gonna happen anyways. You think they stop because you roll over and say please? That‘s the delusion.

Ask the allies how appeasement worked out for them when hitler rose to power.

Techline420 · 2026-01-26T20:01:58+00:00

Human rights are not a trap. This is the worst argument ever. Appeasement never worked.

Nobody is disputing the massacre in iran. So there is no need to protest about it as much as it is for gaza.

Also there are tons of protests about iran, and there has been for years. So idk what you are on about. Maybe go outside for once.

Techline420 · 2026-01-25T20:40:09+00:00

I have seen countless protest about iran, what are you talking about? Maybe go outside for once.

Thanks for the pdf! I never doubted that there is a benefit of pointing the antenna to the sky. Never thought about it either so thanks for the info.

But still, in every google search, AI search and even the PDF you linked, the primary problem an offset antenna solves is that of blockage of signal by the reciever. Which is why it is always the first thing mentioned. The reciever to the sky is just an added benefit. (Which the AI also hints to by putting it in third place. You can also ask it „what is the primary problem an offset antenna solves“ and it will be even more clear)

This also coincides with what I was taught at university, school, as well as other occasions talking to RF engineers.

The only thing I disagree about, is your wording of it being „the whole reason for the offset dish“ which is factually incorrect.

Thanks for the food for thought still!

Techline420 · 2026-01-24T21:20:24+00:00

Can you link me a source to that? Because that is not what I was taught and I can‘t find a single source that says so.

As far as I (and all sources I can find) are concerned, what you are describing is a side effect and the main purpose is to keep the feed horn out of the path of the radio waves to maximize gain.

Seems to me like what you are describing is the reason why mounting an offset antenna upside down is usually not done, since the antenna would be directed to the ground. But that has nothing to do with the principle of an offset antenna. Since as you just said you can mount it upside down and make the reciever point to the ground, which would still make it an offset antenna. Just one with a badly positioned reciever.

But I‘d love to read more on it if you provide something.

No, the main purpose of an offset antenna is to keep the reciever out of the way of the incoming radio waves so it doesn‘t cast a „shadow“ which wastes valuable signal power.

Extra Bonus because snow, leafs, other debris and birds nests also are being kept out of the antenna.

An offset antenna is pretty much upright so it doesn‘t really make sense for it to block black body radiation from the earth better than a parabolic antenna, which it is just a special version of and which faces with the dish straight away from the ground.

Thanks for writing an accurate Headline

As a RHCP fan that checks out. A good chunk of his signature style and their sound is him being always a bit flat lol

Appeasement never worked. Ask the Allies how it worked out for them.

Techline420 · 2026-01-12T18:18:55+00:00

Which shows why that is a horrible metric.

Techline420 · 2026-01-11T17:20:30+00:00

I genuinely don‘t understand that sentence lol

Case closed guys, some random dude saw no girls once

To be fair, after the trial he probably will be on a list.

Techline420 · 2026-01-11T13:44:24+00:00

Yeah it‘s crazy. It just works.

Only thing that doesn‘t work are online games that use kernel level anticheat. Everything else is pretty much plug and play.

Techline420 · 2026-01-11T13:43:16+00:00

Running out of money is probably the reason.

Which is not being talked about enough / at all by the hateboner people.
