i was worried my cat is dehydrated because i never see him drink water so i’ve started leaving a cup of water that’s “mine” (aka he sees me drink out of it once before he does) in my room so he thinks he is being a rebellious naughty by drinking out of it but rlly he is just following my plan & being hydrated .

Absolutely obsessed with the implications of this comment

yeah my rabbis have always said

  • if god hadn’t wanted anyone to find that one apple, woulda been easy enough to not tell people exactly where it was
  • so we can extrapolate that god did want people to eat the apple
  • ok then why not just give people the knowledge straight up
  • because the point wasn’t actually the knowledge, the point was getting people to figure out on their own that it’s important to question authority
  • which if u have met jews. truly a people who love to question authority, so, that tracks

It’s 2018 and I still have no clue how CDs work. It’s a shiny disc, how do they get data on that, let alone that much?? Magic

Like a vinyl disc, where a physical groove is marked into the vinyl, a laser marks the ink of a CD in a similar manner.

A laser (your disc drive) can then look at the pattern in the ink and understand it.

There’s no grooves on a CD tho???

They’re just really tiny, hence the laser. The smaller grooves means that more info can fit on a disc of the same size.

Man how the fuck did they figure out how to make that

well they looked at a record and said “How do we fit more information on this?” to which the reply is “Well either you make the record bigger or the grooves smaller” and making the grooves smaller is way more convenient so they say “Well how do we make the grooves smaller?” and that’s when a total madman comes out with eyes flashing and yells “WITH A LASER!”

And that’s how the CD was invented

how did they figure out how to fit information in grooves in a piece of vinyl in the first place????

probably got some ideas outta this

Fucking mad lads

 #the really wild fact is that even purely digital forms of storing information are basically just ‘count the bump’ technology really

i mean… you could in theory store the entirety of doom on a musicbox cylinder if it was big enough. just put it in binary where bump is 1 and no bump is 0

People who think this planet was created for humans to be ours are so wild to me

70% of the planets surface is undrinkable uninhabitable death water that sharks love. How is that a human-centric design.

the earth was created for various types of crabs

thats why evolution keeps making them
