I don’t know enough marvel to get the last one. Any help? Is she blind at some point?

[–] TheRagingGeek@lemmy.world 32 points 4 months ago

I think the last one is that she lacks Vision, cause Vision got killed

Van Gogh cut off his external ear, but I never heard somebody say that he couldn't hear from that side anymore.

[–] essell@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Maybe they did but someone had cut off your ear?

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I'm pretty sure that I'd remember if someone cut off my ear, unless, hmm... What if I had a lobotomy and don't remember?

You could be brain in a jar. Also the universe could've been created last Thursday

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Unfortunately, the company that was developing it wanted to work on a different universe instead. So even though it was insanely popular, they rushed the ending and completely shit all over the story up to that point.

Beethoven got deaf (or nearly deaf) at quite old age. Doesn't really count either. Also Beethoven never used shitty composite video or even HDMI. These are strictly consumer crap. If good old Ludwig wanted to see his work he directed a fucking symphonic orchestra - and if he didn't like what he got to see it was da capo until he liked it.

It would reduce his hearing from that ear, but not eliminate it.

Last picture should be Helen Keller with no wires

i feel i am going to hell for laughing on this one (not religious in case someone starts that tangent)

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Alright, somebody’s gonna have to explain it to me, cause I don’t get it.

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Van Gough had one ear, so he’s missing one audio cable. Beethoven was ~~dead~~ deaf, so he is missing both audio cables. Wanda was in love with the character Vision, and he died, so no video cable for her.

Edit: typo 🤣

[–] Scrollone@feddit.it 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

lol I think you misspelled deaf

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I know! Now I’m dead! 🤣

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Oooh, ok. Lol.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Those cables are RCA, for trasporting audio and video;
Red(right channel) and white(left channel) for audio, yellow for video

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Oh ok, so Van Gogh only has one ear, Beethoven is deaf, why does Scarlet Witch only have audio? Was she blinded?

Edit: another user explained it: she has no Vision.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Fun fact: there is no right or left channel in the RCA standard. One (white IIRC) is positive both channels and the other (red IIRC) is negative right. That way one is actually mono with both channels overlayed, to get stereo the system (tv, hi-fi, etc…) subtracts one from the other and then inverts the negative one for two channels.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 4 months ago

Oh, cool! I always thought that there were channels and if you just plugged one it would just act as mono audio like some sort of fallback

Given van Gogh's blotchy, artefact ridden, lo-fi video output; I'd say the coaxial shielding on his yellow wire was pretty badly damaged.
