Invent electricity

>invent electricity
>doesn't put switches on their power points
LMAO AMERICANS

But Nikola Tesl--
>flag
Almost took the bait, shame on me.

The plug is the switch.

FIRST WORLD POWER POINT COMING THROUGH!!!

Why do our power points look like shocked Chinese people?

Says the man with an uncomfortable 23andme result.

Something to do with the eureka stockade.

You mean discover? How does one invent electricity? Stupid cunt from Australia.

You're also about to discover your tiny dick size as you look down.

You understand that they still run electricity through the circuit regardless if they are turned on or off..

The switch is completely redundant.

what the cunt does this have to do with politix

Look at the catalog for 30 seconds and realize 60% of the threads have nothing to do with politics. The janitors and mods are fucking shit here.

Just unplug it, abbo. If you mean GFCI, we require them within a certain distance to a water or gas source.

At least I can see my dick fat fuck.

With an American-made electron microscope, I assume?

>want to turn something off
>have to rip the power cable out and leave it there instead of simply flipping a switch

>Be American
>Have devices with switches so I don't have to bend over like you faggots to turn shit off.

Based NIP BTFO Americuck

You shitfling somewhere else.

>What are parallel circuits?

You guys are retarded

>Lightning hits.
>High voltage easily jumps past the small switch barrier and fucks up anything connected to an outlet.

AMERICANS ARE GAY AND FAGGOTS AHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

...

Why would you have switches on your power outlets you fucking idiot?

Also Japan uses the same plugs.

switches are useless. Every device has a switch of its own.

How gives a fuck what Japan does? Being able to turn a socket on and off is so useful, saves on electricity and just makes sense. Why would you take features away? Do you own an iPhone?

>his mains supply isnt 230V

How does a nation lose a war to a bunch of emus?

No need, I am always squinting.

>make your daily life harder just in case lightning hits your house

America once again BTFO by small dick japs

>invent a natural phenomenon

hmm

You win this time, MSG Skinned nip.

POO

Good point but I use a power strip usually anyway. Two plugs isn't enough near a desk

how do you turn off the standby light on your TV when you've already turned it off?

>How gives a fuck
Chinese aussie detected

YOU HAVE TO GO BACK CHONG

>Be British
>Invent gravity
>Hasn't landed on the moon

these 3rd world countrys don't have earth wires on the appliances. protecting the user is overated since the user is worthless

I hear norway is 50% white these days. Why are you lot so cucked?

...

Turn off the surge protector the TV is connected to.
You do use surge protectors, right?

Schuko outlets/plugs are the best ones I've ever worked with. Every other outlet/plug style is either flimsy, blocky or just plain impractical. German engineering wins again.

>power point
power point is a shitty microsoft office software
power outlet is what you plug your appliances into

>be canadian
>invent nothing relevant
>laugh at other people for inventing something

wha tif short circuit happens?

>powerpoint

Its called an outlet you retard

Based jap bringing the bantz

my wall outlets all have switches, but I had to custom install them.

Hit the switch in a place where I don't have to get on the floor near the outlet.

You trip the breaker (or fuse if you live outside the US) and within milliseconds power to the device is killed

LOO

Ayyyyy.... a breaker trips.

OP is fucking with us.

If you're that big of an autist then you can always wire a switched plug

The point is, current flows through the circuit and draws power regardless of your tv being on or off.. you understand that things like lights and such are tied in with wall plugs.

>implying breakers only exist in USA

nope.

>implying vampire power is a meaningful issue

retard

>switch breaks
>need to replace entire socket

>offers no gain to just unplugging

Everyone is free to make sockets with switches.

There just isn't a market for them unless the government forces people to buy them.

yep.

Only first worlders are allowed to have circuit breakers, plus NEMA>IP

IP are nigger tier standards

>unplugs socket instead of flicking a switch like a normal 1st world country

sun falls out of orbit

How is NEMA any better than IP? IP in my experience is pretty practical. Also
>implying amurika is the only 1st world cuntry

I don't understand it. Anything you want to turn off has a switch on it anyway that doesn't require you to bend over. Are you really unplugging alarm clocks and televisions just because they use two cents of power a day?

If you ever sell electricty back to the grind, every penny counts.
money saved is money earn'd

it's just a meme

no one actually cares about shit like vampire power

...

>implying you'd have a country if it we weren't around.

lmaoing at all of you

>AC power connection
>moving parts
Have fun paying more for outlets and replacing the shit every 10 years, idiots.

This
:^)

If you weren't around we'd probably have twice the country we have now.

btfo

classic strayan
woo wee m8

don't be too greedy or you will move to minessota

best plug right here

It's OK

War is over

We deal with this shit now

It's just that 'murika can fuck right off with their delusions

They ruined Europe

>Having to buy add-ons for your sockets so they have the same functionality as first-world Australian ones.

Step aside savages.

>power points

underrated

American sockets look like fags giving blowies at the local gloryhole.

THE UNBEATABLE NIPPON BANTZ

What kind of outlet is this?

Wait until you realise that Americans flip their switched UP for ON instead of down.

It's more fucked up than a dead dingo's donger.

Fuckin Charles De Gaulle invented electricity you dumb cunt.

he can plug in 4 devices

>power point
It's an outlet you fucking savage, stop butchering the King's English. PowerPoint is what you use to make slideshows in middle school.

that's ooga booga logic and intelligent burgers don't do it
up good down bad
light good no light bad
up on down off

>down for on

How the fuck does this even make any sense.

We have those in Australia too. Still doesn't change the fact that he can't cut power to individual sockets.

Imagine if the sun actually fell out of orbit. Of the Milky Way. We'd be beyond fucked.

you fucking indexterous moron
it's infinitely easier to flip a switch down in the dark
god I hate you

Even worse, we invented the internet and forgot to make a switch to keep Australians out

What possible benefit could there be in having to take the extra time to turn switches on and off?

I literally don't understand the point of this at all. I can't think of any possible points of use, except maybe the few times I unplug my PC when I'm going inside of it, and even then, I'd still unplug the cord entirely cause I wouldn't trust the switch

Explain this to me

fucking cunt australians
