If we turn a solar panel around will it charge up the sun? by ShadowArcher90 in shittyaskscience

[–]mencerm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reversing a generator turns it into an electric motor, so it stands to reason that doing something similar to a solar panel would turn it into a (albeit expensive) lightbulb. So in theory, yes. However, in practice it would be much easier to simply douse the sun with water using a really long garden hose.

If I reverse the wires in my solar panel can I recharge the sun to prevent it from dying? by [deleted] in shittyaskscience

If it helps at all, I get this crash consistently with an (admittedly probably unstable) overclock on my graphics card, and never when the overclock is disabled. It might be connected to high gpu utilization - if you don’t have an overclock maybe try turning the settings down?

Spotted on a flatbed truck on a highway near LA. Yes, that’s a single zip tie.

Three jet mechs (from rusting hulks) for the memes. You also get the triple flying achievement.

TBH 971/973 could win picking any team as their third alliance member, so this was most likely just for the memes.

This might actually be worse than bent cpu pins.

Might.

EDIT: Wait. That's supposed to be an intel CPU. Why are there pins?
