No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why is amperage more "obscure" than voltage (or watts)?
4·1 day agoPopularity, tradition, laziness :)
The danger of electricity is the first thing about it that you learn as a little child. And later you learn: the more voltage, the more danger. Even such people who never learn anything else about electricity know that all their life. Now the voltage has an unbeatable popularity.
Power sources with a fixed voltage were invented before such ones with a fixed amperage. Therefore the voltage was used as “the” number to tell the size of it. People like to be lazy, they like to have one single number to tell the size of things. Accordingly, for the devices that use electricity the traditon was established to say only the voltage (often it must fit to the fixed voltage of the source) and then be satisfied.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If the government raided your house and found a bunch of .mkv files but you insist its all legally obtained, how do they ascertain if they are actually pirated or not?
13·16 days agoIf the government raided your house
…then they have other things to do (and you have worse problems) than watching your vidoes or discuss copyright questions.
but I’m also curious about other countries laws
Here in Germany, it is quite possible that you get raided for copyright claims. It has happened. But that means that a suspicion must have existed before. And your chances of getting shot or brutally beaten up during the raid are lower.
