Ever wonder how a 3 or 4-way light switch works?

For a 3-way switch, just eliminate that center switch.

The cool thing is that because of the logic, you can add as many 4-way switches in the middle as you want, and it'll still function the same way. You can have an 87-way circuit without any crazy business (except the obvious crazy business of having 87 switches controlling the same circuit.) <3 XOR

Needs more lens flare. Like one for every blade. And every ring of every lens flare has another light saber, with according lens flares.

Also, because gifv is the thing being pushed by THE premiere image hosting site, imgur, which also incidentally automatically converts all uploaded gifs to that format, literally any imgur .gif link you see you can just put a v on the end of that file extension and boom, you're now loading a nice sleek mp4, so it's absurdly convenient to use.

I never understood these images. Wouldn't there need to be some mechanical thing inside the camera that recorded this going faster than the speed of light?

I'm not very good at science.

E: It's pretty fuckin' cool though.

No, it's all electronic. Your sensor is either sensing or not, there's not a shutter that opens and closes.

That being said, generally, in really over-simplified terms, how these ULTRAMEGAUBERFASTWATCHASINGLEPROTON framerate things work is that it's compiled from several repeats of the same instance, and each time they capture the moment in the sequence that is just a little later. So say you have a sensor that you can turn on for 20 picoseconds. To capture a 100-picosecond sequence, you'll run the sequence five times and capture a different period each time. The first time you capture 0-20ps, the second time 20-40ps, the third time 40-60ps, etc.

It's like if you had a really slow camera and wanted to make a video of a car driving by, but definitely couldn't take pictures fast enough. So instead you have the car drive by a whole bunch of times and each time, you take your picture just a little later, and then compile them all together in an animation.

You can freely change between mp4, gif, gifv, and webm with imgur gif links, so just make it a .gif when you're stuck in the stone age, like on these here forums in the year of our lord 1995

Things like this make me want to watch this, but I am fairly sure the movie can't carry the cool looking clips.

The movie is more or less entirely composed of cool looking clips, watch it, it was good fun and I don't regret paying to see it.

I really appreciate that they put an extra large ball chamber on there. I have a hard enough time stuffing my five dicks into a regular condom, but wrapping it over my ten testicles gets uncomfortable fast.

That's not a shadow though, it appears to be the entire structure. It's on the left side then it's on the right side, back and forth forever.

Above post has it, but to go further: google aerial imagery is composed from a composite of tons of different image sets. The perspective often plays tricks, and in order to alleviate that, there's some shenanigans that happen to try to flatten the different perspective of the images. Same applies over time. Sometimes that "flattening" leads to its own weirdness. In the gif in question, you can see the legs of the monument in one image, and not in another, that's because nothing's moving, it's just a shift in perspective, where one viewpoint has a view of the legs with the top appearing to be further over, and the other does not.

Even with this in mind, I'm having a hard time attributing it to this case.

Looks like a giant shipping container moving around.

fake edit: Oh I understand now. https://www.google.com/maps/@-22.916354,-43.17341,3a,75y,49.19h,150.33t/data=!3m5!1e1!3m3!1saZq4taSkn1MAAAQDMaGO9g!2e0!3e11 Those first couple maps links obscure the actual thing with the pin drop.

Yeah, it's deceiving because it's such an abnormally tall thing surrounded by a bunch of relatively flat stuff, so the shift in perspective doesn't have any sort of reference for your brain, since nothing else is affected by the perspective so much.

Does anyone have the gif of twiggy 12 year old bullying a fat kid at school and the fat kid just losing it and power slamming the twig kid to the ground?

I think it happened a couple years ago. It went viral and I think the twig kid's mother tried suing the fat kid.

I don't have the link but I know exactly what you're talking about and gently caress that little kid, all hail fatty magoo and his hulk rage.

Also the driver had probably just locked up their brakes and was keeping the brake pedal floored while trying to turn the steering wheel to where they wanted to be, not to where they're going no matter what. It's possible to regain traction, but not if you fight what's happening.
