2642: "Meta-Alternating Current"

Post by ratammer »

Title text: It's always bothered me that you can't cancel out an inverter by putting a second inverter after it.

Does anyone else's RSS feed have "No One Was Hurt" instead of "Meta-Alternating Current" as the title for this one?

I don't use the RSS feeds. But now I am intrigued.

It had the right title for me (but I didn't check until after you posted this, so maybe it was fixed).

That just sounds like several switching power supplies chained together.

That's because there was originally a different comic posted for that day.
If I disappear from the forum, I can still be reached via the "contact us" link at the bottom of the page.

Would it be bad taste to have a thread of the original 2642 for history's sake?
If you think tough men are dangerous, wait til you see what weak men are capable of.

Probably. Or maybe not. Check back in a year.
