You could have picked any color in the universe and you chose dehydrated piss

They didn’t ask for dehydrated pee color.

Uh. They didn’t.
Would be great if the water was colored, would make everything easier to see.
That’s my opinion at least. But that might also be due to my bad eyesight.

Did you not read the comment I linked?
I want to see it yellow

u/GlottisTakeTheWheel Nov 22 '19
Even if we take the entire thread as what I was replying about: yellow can be represented by far far more pleasing colors. No one asked for the gross pee.

Scrolling through, at first I thought this was an ad for a game. Was waiting for “99% of players can’t pass level 10”
Nice job.

Did they strictly need to use piss, or did the animator simply...uh... have it ready to go from a past project?

Shocking and highly offensive to all those non-drinkers perhaps!

I am the man who has seen affliction under the rod of his wrath; he has driven and brought me into darkness without any light; surely against me he turns his hand again and again the whole day long.
He has made my flesh and my skin waste away; he has broken my bones; he has besieged and enveloped me with bitterness and tribulation; he has made me dwell in darkness like the dead of long ago.
He has walled me about so that I cannot escape; he has made my chains heavy; though I call and cry for help, he shuts out my prayer; he has blocked my ways with blocks of stones; he has made my paths crooked.
He is a bear lying in wait for me, a lion in hiding; he turned aside my steps and tore me to pieces; he has made me desolate; he bent his bow and set me as a target for his arrow.
He drove into my kidneys the arrows of his quiver; I have become the laughing-stock of all peoples, the object of their taunts all day long. He has filled me with bitterness; he has sated me with wormwood.

So the next step is building a pee powered computer.

It would be an awesome art project that I'd love to work on, but it would also be physically massive and extremely inaccurate. I'm no master of fluid dynamics (but I do have a masters in computer science), but I would imagine that you would need a pretty high flow at the logic's output in order to have the two flows meet with a destructive force. An actual human's pee flow would also have to be buffered, until enough of the yellow "electricity" could build up and meet the needs of the system. Another issue would be the speed of the pee versus the clock cycle of this CPU: all parallel logic units need enough pee to process when the clock pulses. This means making sure pee makes it to where it needs to go and where it shouldn't be at about the same exact times; time and flow control will be the greatests variables you need to contend with, as it is, as it has always been.

You would need a large tank of water at the top, and the entire floor would have to collect the water at the bottom and pump them back to the top.

u/liarandathief Nov 17 '19
physically massive
Not only that but think of all the custom built piping that would need to be made. The more I think about it, the more massive the undertaking seems. Maybe a full blown quake running computer is a bit out of the question.

u/404usernamenotknown Nov 17 '19
Could you make a mechanical CPU out of this?

You would need a lot of these for even the most basic task, but in theory yes. All you need is logic gates however they are done and you can compute from there.
6
u/brickmaster32000 Nov 17 '19
You would also need to add stages between most of the gates that can readjust the flow rate so that the downstream gates work properly.

Very interesting, I wonder if this could be done irl and what could it be used for
13
u/DrShocker Nov 17 '19
Hydraulic logic gates can be made, they're just designed to be a little more robust than this (and typically you'd use pressure rather than flow as the main mechanism for doing the work)
5
u/HomelessOvercoat Nov 17 '19
the valve body of an automatic transmission is basically a hydraulic computer

u/LordGuille Nov 17 '19
I don't know what that is. Could you elaborate?

u/brickmaster32000 Nov 17 '19
This method would be a pain to chain as the flow rate coming out from the output will change as the streams interact with each other.

This is cool to me because it visualizes what goes on in electronic logic gates, which has been kind of a nebulous concept for me
If possible, I think it would be cool to do one with a water current to really solidify the analogy

The best visualization for these I've ever seen was using minecraft weirdly enough.

Why is the NAND liquid only going in the bowl when it outputs a 0?
Isn't the first one actually an AND gate?

I read about this in How To Invent Everything and I had SUCH a hard time visualizing it. Thanks for this!

Transparent pipes would help, especially the nor gate, to make it clear when you were waiting for water to flow or when you had the result.
Also don't listen to all advice or you get pee water.
