I once argued this with my teacher in Uni.

“Do I have to find a quote of someone saying it if I say the sky is blue? Do I have to reference my parents when I put my name at the top of the page?”

Unsurprisingly, he said I was being obtuse.

Oh look, Apple. The bad guys do use your shit.

God, I didn’t think i could want OpenAI to crash even more than I already did!

Trading off to pull more amps is not really feasible. Power is the work done, the product of voltage and current. This is what (watt) is being delivered to the water, ultimately. You can achieve this, in a very basic sense by either increasing the voltage or the current. However, a quirk of material interaction with electricity is that it is the current draw and the resistance that have a heating effect, I²R. However this is in every conductor, including the ones you have packed in behind your walls. This also means that if you deliver too little voltage to a product designed to pull a certain load (a given amount of power) it will make that power up instead by drawing more current, and hopefully only destroying the product, which I hope is cheaper than your home.

Additionally, your point about doubling the voltage is correct. If you took a live feed from breakers off both sides of your “split phase” distribution panel, that would actually mean you were delivering 240VAC @60Hz to an appliance, at the loss of your neutral line (frequency interactions are another consideration to an item) but many ships around the world work happily without a neutral line.

This is all very basic a way of looking at it. My apologies, I’m tired and not a teacher.

The loop of sockets could be as high as 32A but most appliance plugs are fitted with a 13A fuse.

A British kettle will pull around 3kW. What splits the wheat from the chaff is how quietly it’ll do that, for the most part. Fancy ones will let you pick a temperature, too. Tea is 100°C and poured straight on the bag, coffee is a wimp and cries bitter tears at such a high heat.

I’ve had friends from Northern Ireland (though anywhere reserves the right to claim proper tea making method) that will fuck you off if you take 10 seconds from the stop of the kettle and the contact of hot water to the teabag.

After listening to his rendition of She’s Leaving Home, does there need to be even be one Billy Bragg album

“Actual antisemite/neo-nazi” as well, it seems, as a harbourer of CSAM.

Not that you missed it out. I just went looking for the originator.

Oh god. Budd!

And they’ll become cheaper as they undoubtedly sack their talent, right?

I think if I buy a game under the pretext of it being entirely “man-made”, in 2026. If it then turns out to have been partially AI produced in 2030, I should have the right to earn a refund, even if I 100% it.

The right [word] in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

Also pretty fun coincidence that the northern one is the only one with actual bears.

You mean its not clipped into a swivel bracket on the underside of the slats for when your new partner escapes having his brains blown out in a bathtub?!

How will we know whether he’s surgical with that bitch, Jake?!

Hmmm. And the poor have gotten poorer?

Almost sounds like theft.

Im from the north east. None of those places. But they have already been doing schemes after covid of £2 rides from the provinces into the likes of Newcastle.

That has actually lapsed now but stuff like this gives me hope that they’ll be able take charge and do something like it. There’s also been a spate of bus shelter improvements near me also. Im loving the buses.

Though the number scratched into the back of the seat on the double decker I was on did not, in fact, lead to a hot fuck as was advertised.

He’s slinging his gob with all the hubris of a man that thinks his neck cannot be chopped or roped.

Yours is a side step because saying equal prominence has nothing to do with whether something a corpse of an alien is an alien.

I just made up separate example to focus on that aspect. But it will clearly be quicker if I just say you’re right. Have a nice day.
