The lunar eclipse this month in Central Europe:

I have seen this style of photo a few times over the last year or so
It's a dig at the FE Soc. clowns ... but there is a major problem with it, as it depicts the colours incorrectly
a flat Earth disk side on is only going to show the eclipse colour in an area across the moon, not over the whole moon

It should be akin to something like this ( excuse my poor quick paintbrush edit, I don't have Photoshop on work PC) ...

The illumination through the atmosphere is much dimmer than the direct illumination. It would be a black band if the Moon is just at the horizon. For other positions of the Moon it would look different. Which brings up the interesting question how that is possible (on a flat Earth) as different observers see the Moon at different places in the sky at the same time. Well, basic geometry was never their strength.

My school physics teacher (an amateur astronomer, in fact) was a member of the Flat Earth Society under the pseudonym Quentin Cumbére. He thought it was funny that (back in the days of paper-based record keeping) there was some Flat Earth Society member somewhere typing out address labels to Mr Q. Cumbére.

I think that qualifies as lame.

Neither is logic

I know, but I found the obvious contradiction in colors is a kind of second twist of the joke, as it contradicts what it's primarily telling.

When life gives you lemons, stick nails and pennies into them and make batteries.

1. #2 has been posted before ...
2. You know, the bad thing about all batteries, no matter whether they are rechargable or not, is the fact that they are dischargable! ...

 

[mfb]

A battery that you can't discharge would be useless. Or illegal.

Law talk on the theme! ... It's always funny!
But at least those batteries they can charge and not discharge! ... or a lawyer (or D.A.) can get disbarred over this (ħ → h), or "crucified" (L^†).

 

[fresh_42]

A battery that you can't discharge would be useless.

Quite the opposite. However, the rules forbid me to discuss a constant potential within a circuit.

That segmentation fault at the end . Classic C. Favorited.

e^x is walking down the road one day when he meets several other functions coming the other way.
One of them, x^2, cries "Run for your life! A differential is coming! He's already eliminated some constants!" as he runs past.
"Hah!" exclaimed e^x, "I'm not afraid of any differential; I'm e^x, and he can't affect me."
So he walked on a little further, and, sure enough, spied a differential coming towards him. He approached boldly and declared, "Hi, I'm e^x"
"Hello," answered the differential, grinning broadly, "I'm d/dy"

Plot twist: x=y.

That reminds me of this*:

[nuuskur]

e^x is walking down the road ..

Is the joke that $e^x$ is regarded as a constant w.r.t $y$? So $e^x$ gets eliminated?

Yes.

Will it be this one?

The barman says "Get out! We respect causality in this establishment!"

A tachyon walks into the bar.

When do we want it?

Two chemists walked into a bar. The first one ordered, "A glass of H₂0". The second one said, "I'll have an H₂0, too."
The second chemist died.

Also noticed no Scrödinger !? ... Can we make up one, e.g. with ψ or something?
