He really doesn’t understand that tariffs are not paid by the exporting country.

Also the venue is the Orion Amphitheater in Huntsville, Alabama

Dave Tipper is an electronic music producer known for weird, psychedelic music. He’s down there at very bottom center of the stage; he generally doesn’t put himself out as the face of the production, and collaborates with eminent visual effects artists to deliver an immersive audiovisual experience rather than focusing on the individual performers. In this case the entire front wall of the amphitheater has been used as a projection surface for the visuals.

He announced his retirement so his very dedicated fan base is getting in the last few shows.

The Tipper show in Huntsville, and my friends that joined me for it!

yeah, communities should have subject tag sets. I don’t care for anime or sports or video games - i should be able to turn off those tags. Not block 50 different game communities ad hoc

Surge suppressors do not drop extra voltage to ground. They selectively short out surges between whatever two conductors have a high potential between them.

No ground conductor means there cannot be a high potential between it and anything else!

This data seems way off - steak has 24-30g of protein per 100g, for example

A battery (or transformer secondary) has two terminals - neither is “ground”, and electricity will flow between them if a circuit is formed.

Often, one terminal of a battery or transformer is connected to a ground stake, so it’s possible for ground to become part of the circuit. But ground is not any kind of natural destination for electricity. (Other than lightning, which is a result of a charge forming between the earth and the clouds)

it doesn’t “find” the path of least resistance. It takes (flows along) all possible paths simultaneously. If you connect two wires in parallel between the terminals of a battery, one of which is thick (resistance) and one of which is thin (high resistance), current will flow along both.

What? No. Electricity takes all conductive paths through a circuit simultaneously, with a current in inverse proportion to the path resistance. Ground means nothing unless it somehow makes up a part of the circuit - it is neither a “sink” nor “zero” for electricity. It’s just dirt.

yeah they are selling “wireless home internet” hard now, can’t have people using their phone hotspot for that.

Guys, he made the joke!

Fun fact: a US nickel weighs 5.000g, and 5 US quarters weigh 1.0000oz
