Literally already documented and people are still asking.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Cat-Toast Generator

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

I love that video so much, lol

[-] Tarastie@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago

You'll have to strap magnets to the cat or use it's air vortex.

If you "attach" it then it's not falling anymore. It's just cat on a stick.

Yeah this is as old as dialup at least.

The true law of thermodynamics

[-] Saeculum@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Sadly, the design is unfeasible as eventually the rotational force either separates the bread from the butter, or liquidises the internal organs of the cat when they reach peak generating speed.

The rapid disassembly of the mechanism can cause quite an amount of damage as well.

It's ight they got nine lives.

[-] Masimatutu@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Perhaps we can limit the speed by increasing the strength of the generator... but of course that introduces the risk of ripping the cat apart from raw force

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Why don't you just butter both sides of the bread? Cats are fickle

[-] pheeef@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

That’s an engine sir.

[-] BruceLee@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

The legend has is, it's how the nyancat was born.

[-] atx_aquarian@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Cat and bread attached to generator: not falling.

Not falling: not flipping.

[-] hswolf@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

yeah, for this idea to work you'd have to put a magnetic rod between the bread and the cat, and put the whole package inside a copper coil

People who expose free energy like this end up disappearing under mysterious circumstances.

How do you attach cat to the generator? I see something sussy 0-0

[-] M137@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Are you 12 years old? I hope so for your own sake.

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Right? It clearly goes into the cat’s rectum for stability.

[-] radioactiveradio@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

They clearly haven't played postal 2

[-] xthexder@l.sw0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know what Portal 2 has to do with it, but now you've got me thinking about the cat in the teleporter in Half Life 2

[-] radioactiveradio@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Postal 2 not portal. You can stick your shotgun in a cat's anus and use it as a suppressor in postal 2.

[-] xthexder@l.sw0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Ooh! My bad, I completely read it wrong, lol

[-] sooper_dooper_roofer@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

apologies your logic is not convoluted enough to reach its natural conclusion

attaching the cat-bread to a generator would prevent it from falling, so it would stop rotating (no further need)
It would just be a motionless (apart from whatever the cat's doing, assuming it's still alive) and it wouldn't work
sorry!

best regards

[-] Masimatutu@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

@Tarastie@lemmy.world already provided a solution: by strapping magnets to the cat, the cat becomes the generator and never has to touch anything

Deutsche, besetzt die Kommentarsektion!

now i doubt my physics, thanks!
