    My brother in America I have felt electricity and I can say exactly what it’s like.

    If you still don’t believe though I will gladly share the secret of how to feel it for yourself. You need only bring a fork.

        For a preview that’s way way too low touch a dodgy HDMI cable, a finger will suffice if you want to feel electricity and with your tongue if you ran out of 9v bats.

          That’s not a dodgy HDMI cable. One of the devices, if multiple are connected together, is causing the mains electricity to be capacitively transferred across the transformer core in the power supply.

          That’s a dodgy power supply design because of either a cheap core design, poorly rated decoupling caps across the HV to LV side of the core or lack of earth pin.

            I assume it is dodgy because it is a 5 meter cable and it was the only HDMI cable to do this, and it was purchased from a bazaar.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged, but keep it in good faith and never punch down.
