I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.

yes, it is an undersea cable, but there are three big obvious copper conductors in the middle. it's a three-phase power transmission cable.

one of the smaller circles probably contains optical fiber for communication related to the power transmission, but that isn't where your internet is going.

an undersea fiber-optic data cable is much smaller, and looks like this. only the very center black part is glass. all the rest is armor.

Just about every undersea cable has both power and fibre optics in it, but that's a cable designed to move electricity. Hence the three big copper conductors with dielectric around them, making this most likely a 3 phase AC cable. There's almost definately optical fibre but it's just a nice to have since you're laying the cable anyway.

Cables designed specifically for communication will have the fibre cores in the centre of the cable, surrounded by waterproofing, strength members, a ring of conductors for electricity to power the repeaters if the cable is longer than ~80km, and more steel for armour. GIS submarine power cable and then compare with a GIS for submarine communications cable.

It's literally different. You can run off the second to last platform and land on solid ground.

E: and I guess there's an additional pit, even ignoring that.

e: Actually, did you mean the one before the two-block platform in the second version? If so, that means the one that looks harder is actually easier, which I think just underscores the original point, but I'm not sure if Mario can run that far.

It's not easier to run underneath the last platform, it's just an additional different route.

Looks to me like regular mario could do it, but big mario would biff himself on the final platform and fall.
