Being a Nazi should be punishable by law.

This is a great argument for open source :)

Really? The manufacturers certainly seem to push such allusions in their advertising.

Of course fossil fuels are worse, but that doesn’t mean EVs are a magically green utopia machine either.

Then I guess surviving the climate collapse will be just as realistic.

Good, we don’t need AI corporations destroying the environment just to keep the bubble lasting a little bit longer

Good, hope they target Felon Mu$k as well.

Which they also can’t explain

Yes, but they never want to admit that.

Nope, and if you ask them to explain what they mean by woke, they can’t.

Good, makes it easier to leave that garbage heap of a website.

They never learn, do they? The grift that just keeps on giving.

Anyone who buys “Smart” products gets what they deserve.

It IS America though, what do you expect?

https://youtu.be/I-HqgdJAcLs at 7 minutes in they talk about the efficiency loophole issue.

The reason the trucks keep getting bigger is to meet emissions regulations. Sounds nuts, right? But instead of making them more efficient, they could use a loophole of making them bigger instead, because the law applies in a size vs efficiency ratio, not efficiency by itself.

I would rather crawl over broken glass than give money to Nazi Musk for one of his Swasticars

To quote a song lyric from an excellent rock band… “Clever, not very wise”

A single-sided or 1-layer board cannot have vias. As a professional designer you should know this. I was not talking about a board with components only on one side. I mean a board with only one copper layer.

I never claimed that nearly all LCD monitors have 0 vias. I said their power supplies very often do not.

Here you go: Philips 55PUS6704/12 power supply board. Single sided board, 1 copper layer. No vias. Almost all of them are like this:

What has aerospace got to do with it? Nothing. Your claim seemed to be that anything other than high speed digital designs utilising BGA ICs, 4+ layer boards and a million vias don’t count as “actually designing electronics”. You appear to be trying to imply now that only electronics designed for aerospace use counts as “real electronics design”.

It sound like you are an elitist asshole, with a far too big ego, who probably also thinks that “only real programmers use assembly/binary/a magnetic needle and a steady hand/whatever”

If only you had professional experience in not over-inflating your ego with the contents of your LinkedIn profile.
