Yes, but then it's slower for your computer to talk back to your Wi-Fi, so it ends up cancelling out
Push-Pull Config
RoRo stations. Roll on, roll off/out. The internet isn't a highway, it's a series of bullet trains in tube tunnels.
I wonder if anyone thinks OpenTTD would be more fun with a cyberspace theme? I know there's a neon grid grf (mod)...
Anyway, if this was a suitable solution for WiFi, we wouldn't need wired connections. That said, you can cut open a drink can to turn a WiFi router's signal into a focused beam using the aluminum, iirc.
We can streamline this by making the room into 2 small tunnels from the router to the PC. This way there will be less obstacles in the room. But we need to add leafblowers on each side with a boost button.
What if we make the tubes really really small and wrap them in many protective layers to prevent other wind sources from messing with the signal.
At that point why even bother with the air at all, we could just send electrical signals. Or even light.
Pretty sure that's the joke, buddy
you could also hook into the router and wireless card of the computer to make each of them turn on the corresponding leaf blower whenever they’re sending something. of course you’d probably have to implement some kind of queuing system so only one blower is active at a time, but it will all be worth it for the speed gains
Interestingly, this could be true and you could never find out experimentally iirc.
I watched a veritasium video about the 1 way speed of light vs 2 way that talked about it.
I watched the same video!
I was right about to disagree and type “wait this only applies to light” but then I remembered: radio is light.
Crazy to think about that!
It is nuts. It goes to show how far science goes proving things through deductions rather than direct observation. So much science is done that way.
I think that there would be some infinite energy glitches if it was actually true that light was faster 1 direction than another, so I think the assumption is a good one. But still fun facts
LOL! Yes, one has to consider this. ZOMG your's is the best comment!
Le reddit moment tips cap to you sir
