  • waves are related to circles: if you have a line and anchor it at one end, when you rotate it the other end of the line, it draws a circle, but if the paper you're drawing it on moves to one side at a constant speed, you'll get a wave. Alternatively, if you plot where the other end of the line is as time passes (for example, every second or every minute), you'll get a wave. you can do this in reverse too.

    it's helpful to convert to circles. from a regular wave, at 0 you don't know if the wave will go up or down without further information. 0 on a circle will correspond to one of two spots, either the very top or the very bottom, and if you know which direction the circle is rotating, you can tell what the related wave will do next.

    at least that's my understanding

    Is there still an effort to move technical help threads from Redshit to here?

    I remember that being a thing amongst the initial migration, is it still happening? I rather hate having to append redshit to the end of my searches every time, especially with their anti-vpn bullshit they're on now.

    Satan makes a bet with a wealthy CEO, to see who can create the most money, starting from nothing.

    Artificial general intelligence has already been created: it's just been disguising itself as an LLM.

    The revolution is won and the evil tyrant is set for execution. His last words, though, are completely unexpected: it's praise for their success.

    You are sacrificed to an eldritch god by a cult. The god is apologetic, and does not want to be worshiped.

    How the fuck do I find out where and when all these protests and rallies are happening?

    50501 comes up on /all feed every so often, with new pictures of protests and rallies and so forth, but I never see information about upcoming events on there.

    Wikipedia not rendering math formulas?

    Working on a project, for whatever reason one of the pages I'm reading up on doesn't load the math formulas, instead showing error messages. Frankly it's annoying, as they were literally displaying perfectly fine the other day. Any help on this? Searching the internet brings up nothing useful.

    Edit: This was on firefox. Checked it on my phone's firefox and chrome browsers and it still shows the error. This is probably on Wikipedia's side of things.

    An ancient, millennia old evil finally reawakens. Turns out, morals and ethics have changed a lot; its "evil" is fairly tame by modern standards.

    Aliens come to Earth. They completely ignore all attempts at diplomacy as they're only looking for a single person in particular.

    A revolutionary takes work at the McDonald's in the Pentagon as part of their plan to assassinate the president. However, they end up falling in love with one of the officials there.

    After winning a long winded court dispute with the devil over your soul, you opened a business helping others navigate their infernal contracts.

    You reincarnated into a fantasy world, where you attend a magic school. Though, it turns out your entire class is made of people who reincarnated.

    You are the last human left alive, not because everyone else is dead, but because someone needs to maintain the servers they all uploaded themselves to

    What are the exact ramifications and consequences of the recent meeting with Zelenskyy and Trump/JD?

    I watched a bit of the meeting, not the whole thing, but the bit where Trump and Vance started lashing out at Zelenskyy. There's been a lot of talk about it on here, and I agree Trump and Vance are big man babies trying to bully Ukraine into an unfavorable deal, but I'm still not clear on how this affects, well, everything I guess. Can someone ELI5?

    What's up with the Dragon Rider drama?

    I almost hate to ask this since it's come up so much already, but what's with the Dragon Rider drama? Like what's going on

    Found a shovel in game today.

    I'll see if I can upload the entire clip (saved the whole match lol), but I found an equipable entrenching tool while fighting illuminates. Took my support weapon slot sadly enough but losing my stalwart and all the combat effectiveness it brings was worth the ability to dig holes in the ground.

    Seriously you could dig holes with it. I nearly buried myself.

    How do I realistically get out of the US?

    Preferably into the EU. I speak some Spanish and I'm set to graduate with an Associates this semester. Hoping to get CompTIA certs sometime soonish and would like to continue schooling to get a bachelor's in Compsci. Most notable work experience is 2 years in an office setting making collection calls and processing payments. What resources are available to me? Who or what agency/department can I contact to get more information? What's the pipeline look like?

    I know I could look most of this up, but there's a lot of information out there and some(a lot) of it I find somewhat confusing. Plus, I don't really even know where to start.
