Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

Is a transistor a door? Then doors (and it's not even close). Otherwise wheels because gears are wheels.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought transistor

[–] veroxii@aussie.zone 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'd classify them more as gates, not doors.

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Gates typically contain doors, yes?

[–] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 6 points 2 months ago

Depends, I wouldn't say one of these has a door:

It does contain multiple gearwheels however...

I'm more likely to count individual bearings in a ball bearing as a wheel than a transistor as a door

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Individual ball bearings are definitely wheels.

[–] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

They are gates.
