can you really do this?

[Animesona]

i wanted to try this but i wanted to know if this would actually work or is it made to fool stupid people like my dad cause he thinks this will actually work if he made it 

 

 

[LukeSavenije]

from what I can see it makes 0 sense... I'm going to say fooling stupid people

[Juular]

Of course it would. First you need prototype PCB to solder coil in it, you don't use this PCB after. Then you connect random pairs of UTP patch cord (which also wired randomly on the other end too i guess) to either ends of another coil, plug it in the WAN port of unpowered WiFi. And now you have free WiFi ! Makes perfect sense, right ?

 

The whole point of the video is to sell prototype PCBs.

[p13]

lol ... no

 

You could hook up some antennae with some gain factor to your router instead of the stock 0db rubber ducks.

[SansVarnic]

Reminds me of the video were this kid wraps a copper wire around an ethernet cord to the wall and claims it will give you free internet.

 

@Animesona It ^^ was a hoax and so is this.

hahaha I'm kind of surprised this video isn't from ThioJoe. 

 

But really, if you have bad wifi, you need a better access point.

There's a very simple question you can ask yourself to check if this is real or not: "if this worked, why isn't anyone using it?"

[Pixel5]

any video like this with 99% loud music and zero information why this should work can generally be considered to just not fucking work.

If I could have complete control over youtube I don't know what I would delete first, this type of rubbish or all the bad medical advice and conspiracy shit.

Well, I would suggest all the bad medical advice, because that stuff can actually kill people -- see e.g. Trump and his advice to use chloroquine to treat coronavirus, where the advice has now caused multiple deaths. At least stuff like the above video will only make people look like fools.

As much as I hate trump, he didn't advise people to use it, he just got excited because some hospitals were reporting success with it.  It's a prescription only medicine, so the only way there could be a shortage was if doctors on masse started prescribing it for no reason.  Therefore any shortage is a problem is due to the quality of US doctors not trumps tweet.

Some ISP's offer discounts for going paperless. Also do they offer cell service? Pair and save?

whenever you see something like this just ask yourself how the frick should this work.

 

like where should that wifi come from and where should this suddenly appearing wifi get its internet connection from.

Wifi itself is just a wireless transmissions standard so even if this would create a wifi network of some sort it would have no connection to the internet.

Is this video really brought to us by JLCPCB?

Seems like bad business to go around sponsoring videos like this.

You cant blame anyone other then those people drinking fish tank cleaner.

 

The couple on AZ where the man died and the woman was in icu....didnt even have the virus. And they drank fish tank cleaner.

 

Thats on them. No body else lol.

 

In general if you take a youtube video as gospel without doing research its on the person.

Of course I can. There are a lot of people that will believe anything a celebrity says and if a celebrity misuses their fame and puts out false information that leads to injuries or deaths, I fucking definitely will blame the celebrity as well as the people believing said celebrity.

You can blame the celeb but your blame is misplaced.

 

Esp in this case where the people are not taking a medicine but drinking fish tank cleaner.

 

Thats like me telling someone they need to drink more water and they chug bleach because bleach has water in it. That wouldnt be my fault.

 

Blame stupid people for the stupid things they do. Being a celeb means nothing. Just because you can act, sing, play a sport, etc doesnt mean your opinion on anything is automatically valid. So people shouldnt listen yo celebs just fot being celebs.

 

Nobody has ever ever told anyone to drink fish tank cleaner.

I do not agree, like I mentioned in my previous post.

But why?

 

Why is it anyones fault outside the person who decides to believe anything they see or hear?

 

Now if we are talking about young children then i could understand.

 

But no adult has the excuse of "but they told me to". 

 

People need to take more personal responsibility for their actions. Nobody is raised being told that celebs are trustworthy people who know everything.

I didn't say I don't blame the stupid people themselves or that they are blameless; I said I blame them and the celebrity spouting garbage.
