So like half a tic tac and a stick of bubblegum. Got it

Not necessarily. Buttons and switches introduce contact resistance, which in the case of the mushy Duracell buttons, is relatively high and also dependent on how hard they’re pressed.

Ideally, the buttons are pressed very hard to ensure the entire contact area is closed, minimizing the contact resistance from the buttons. A good switch should have little resistance.

Poorly closing the contacts by not pressing the Duracell buttons very hard would result in higher contact resistance (because there’s physically less contact between both halves of the switch), which means less current flows through the strip and less heat is generated. This would look identical to a deader battery with the buttons pressed well.

Thanks for the reminder that English is dumb

Which includes practically all gun related content lol.

Most gun channels make their income from sponsors, who are companies in the firearms industry.

This is just Google’s latest act of garbage, over-reaching, corpo censorship. Fuck em.

I have a handful of tankie capitalism and “democracy” loving, American “traditional” leaning and religious Republican coworkers who absolutely still believe that he’s a genius. They feel that way about other billionaires too.

Edit: TIL that “tankie” doesn’t mean “capitalism and ‘democracy’ loving, American ‘traditional’ leaning and religious Republicans.” I guess the shorthand for that is just “stereotypical conservative.”
