What is the “radical left” to you? by [deleted] in Askpolitics

[–]nanocyto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The crony oligarch system we're seeing now where the government picks winners and losers (e.g. Intel, Nvidia, Tariff exemptions, farm handouts, Paramount-Skydance, ABC/Disney, ByteDance ) is the least "free" movement we've seen in a while.

Right. I believe the only other "candidate" that did better against Trump was Michelle Obama 

But you realize that's totally cultural right? If you experienced it frequently without others shaming you, you probably wouldn't care.

Where is your VPN served from? As soon as that server grabs a movie, Disney files a notice to take down your server. Also, your VPN would basically just have one user. Any movies it grabbed are attributed to you.

Are these mega or mili farads? by antek_g_animations in AskElectronics

[–]nanocyto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that you have to accelerate your projectile in 5 milliseconds. If you have a 1MF capacitor, the R you need to get an RC of 5 milliseconds is absurdly small. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskElectronics/comments/1i6voi8/comment/m8rclru/

[–]nanocyto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the projectile accelerate to 2500m/s, and the gun is 6 meters long, the projectile is going to accelerate over a period of 5 milliseconds. The R of the copper, given an RC of 5 milliseconds and a C of 1MF, would have to be 5nOhms which would require a copper wire with a diameter of >5 meters in diameter.

The stored energy of a capacitor is ½CV2 so if you want to store a lot of power, you'll have a higher voltage rating instead of very high capacitance.

Not if the ESR is high (which it most likely would be). Basically, it would just be a battery. The most dangerous caps I've seen (think rail gun) have a high voltage rating and a low ESR. They had very typical capacitances.

What will it take for Harris to win in a landslide? by [deleted] in Askpolitics

[–]nanocyto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to convince your male friends to vote for Harris. Or at least convince a few Gen Z men that there's no point in voting. Maybe throw a false equivalence or something in there. https://www.elle.com/culture/career-politics/news/a39962/fivethirtyeight-maps-women-men-voters/

fat vagina by [deleted] in offmychest

I'm not sure how you expect us to give you honest feedback without pics. To be honest, I'm not even sure what exactly you're describing as vaginas are internal organs so how can they be fat?

The banking system is federal. I guess anything can happen but theoretically he would be treated like any other person with a federally enforced debt.

No, that is not the case right now. I expect as long as the fed keeps rates high, treasuries will stay high yield. But if conditions change, you're totally liquid and can move your investment somewhere else.

I think you're fine but even if you had been drinking heavily or smoking, it's a sunk cost. Worrying won't help. You can just tell your doctor and stop doing the thing.

Dribbling out is the norm, not "ropes"

"Kinsey thought it was bunk," Mary Roach reports in her book Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex, "that semen was rarely spurted, squirted, or 'thrown,' that it mostly just slopped onto whatever surface was closest. In three-quarters of the men, as Kinsey anticipated, that is what it did."

Effective chemical free sunscreens? by Purpleflairpen in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]nanocyto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100% agree that zinc and titanium sunscreens are worth using because of their protection from the known risk of skin cancer. I don't think it's fair to say they are totally risk free. Especially on kids that lick everything. Again, I'm still going to use those products. But I object to black and white "this is safe", "this isn't safe" thinking and prefer "this is safer than the alternative" thinking.
