        The gif is made from a Low Buck Garage video where he’s working on his WW2 era 6x6 truck. The part he’s staring at is the hole where the axle slots through the tire and into the differential.

        This clip is taken shortly after he attempts to put the rear axle back in and he discovers that the gears in the rear most differential are no longer aligned with the hole, he shortly after this clip describes the process for what it takes to get into the rear most differential and it’s an ordeal.

        He does come up with a plan though.

        If you’re into vehicle restoration videos he’s got a great channel. He’s also got a great sense of humor about the stuff he works on and the processes involved.

        I absolutely love the the hydraulic analogy, and my advancing age and the 'tism compels me to share a story.

        I was a science major and worked as a tutor through college. Intermediate physics was required for all science degrees, so basic electrical theory consistently came up.

        What I love about the analogy is it’s actually not perfectly analogous, but the differences become obvious once the initial concepts are understood, then those differences help students figure it all out. Its imperfection is actually what makes it perfect, and my nerdy side just loves that kind of stuff.

        The students that argued with me the most about how it was a shit analogy were my favorite because they’d so frequently knock it out of the park come exam time. It was like the academic equivalent of hate fucking.

      It’s a reference to this image that has been shared in so many different schools around the world:

      Current (measured in amperes, or amp) is the flow of charge. emf (volts) is the energy supplied to a circuit per coulomb of charge (coulombs being the unit of charge. Current is coulombs per second). Resistance (measured with ohms) restricts the flow of charge (conductors have low resistivity, insulators are high. Resistance increases with length and decreases with crosd-sectional area)

      Ohm’s law is V = IR (or, with current isolated, I = V / R)

    Damn I’d gotten a A+ or F+ if I was Electrical Engineering courses. Sex not only sells but also educates at a decent amount of topics.

      I learned trig from a pornstar sitting on a stool with nothing but flash cards and socks on. Yes her clothes were flash cards yes it was a game, yes I was horny enough to ace my trig exams. No I don’t remember the name of the game, I’m sorry.

    I find the Reddit/Lemmy/Etc fascination with cartoons of young girls deeply creepy. They’re everywhere. How many pathetic pedo virgins are actually out there? Apparently many.

      you don’t get out much do you?

      most every society is obsessed with youth and sex. when i the last time you saw a billboard with a sexy 70 year old advertising you something?

        It’s specifically because I get out much, and am in a very long-term relationship with an actual woman that I find the idea of sexualizing cartoon images rather odd, especially when they’re very often images of children, even if not in this specific case.

        I mean, there’s a discussion above of jerking off to cartoons, but I’m the one who doesn’t get out much. Keep jerkin’ it homie.

      I do too but non of the above actually look young like the creepy stuff. I’d place them in their mid 20s

      Spoiler

      I have no idea how much of this information is slop. I think it’s funny that ChatGPT made a decent attempt at this.

      You can downvote if you want, meatbags, but I think it’s funny.

      Also, it wouldn’t let me make them scantily clad.

        I mean it’s not the explanation - I would’ve expected girls to resemble Laughlin’s wavefunction - but still it’s cool! It got the Wikipedia page right
