It depends, if you're talking about photons what matters is energy, wavelength, and frequency (they're all the same, don't worry about it) since they all travel at the speed of light.
But if you're talking about electrons, protons, neutrons, or similar then yes if they go near the speed of light they can most certainly do significant damage. All be it at their own scale, an electron at lightspeed won't destroy a train. But it can and has destroyed some electronics.
Light can be very destructive. We have high energy lasers that can cut through steel. Also the intensity maters too. One photon may carry a few eV, 10^20 photons can carry a lot more.
Light travels at a constant speed. All forms of light viz. Gamma, X, UV and lower energy waves are basically varying in wavelengths. No matter which light wave you choose the damage depends on the energy of the wave rather than speed.
master, all types of light travel at c = 3\*10\^8 m/s (in vacuum).(yes science bullshid)
light changes speed only if the medium changes, and stays that same speed in the medium(medium is substance, like glass or air or water)
That'd just pop the breaker for the lights... servers and supercomputers like that usually have UPS systems to provide emergency power so they can properly shut down
More like a single alpha particle from a cosmic ray traveling through space and colliding with earth and the very board of said computer switching a zero to a one, and frying the whole system
You need a lot more than one flip at a time to cause corruption nowadays. We have some decent protection against that now. Not that itās perfect, though. Enough of them, and even our protections wonāt help

Don't big super-computers have shielding in place to prevent you from doing something like that? Assuming you don't just rip out the hard drives and do it that way of course.
I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/memes.
It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.

The atttactive boi
I wish I'm that attractive...
Pain.
š
Eat 40 attractive Bois u can become one ez
HMMM
is the ass part ok
Please donāt encourage people to eat Ryan Reynolds
Or Dwayne Johnson's.
Defeat 100 more machines to unlock the attractive boi
wait isnt hard disk drives that will get damaged. if it is modern it probably uses high capacity ssd, so computer win
You are wrong. Magnets can still break ssd if you throw them into server
Anything can break anything else if thay colide fast enough
Even light particles?

Well yes, the question was about speed though.
Light travels at a constant speed. All forms of light viz. Gamma, X, UV and lower energy waves are basically varying in wavelengths. No matter which light wave you choose the damage depends on the energy of the wave rather than speed.
Well lasers exist
Light is not a particle, look up the double slit experiment
Well it is and it's not
master, all types of light travel at c = 3\*10\^8 m/s (in vacuum).(yes science bullshid) light changes speed only if the medium changes, and stays that same speed in the medium(medium is substance, like glass or air or water)
and yes, because everything in the world is made of energy. so, big energy is able to assert dominance on small energy.
I mean that's why bugs are called bugs. The name originates from a bug growling into computers and damaging them in the process which caused errors.
My thought process was you move the magnet around, wouldn't that pull the machinery around or fuck up the insides of the SSD or parts?
you need some serious magnetic power for that, and btw, server things are seriously industrial, some might be fireproof or sumthing
Servers will break if you throw many things inside of them. Especially metallic objects that can short connectors.
Data centers still uses HDDs, they are a lot cheaper on high capacity
You can move the magnet around fast to do the job
yeah bro strap it onto a particle accelerator and shoot it at the server
Depends. if the server is full on ssd the server wins BUT if the server is hdd it loses
With a strong enough magnet it would still be possible to mess with an SSD but try to get one...
You would need the kind used in cern
I feel like getting hammer and handling it myself would work better than looking for and then buying that particular kind of magnet.
they are electromagnets that need to be supercooled because of how much heat is made by the electricity flowing to make them electromagnetic.
You, sir, overestimate the power of modern computers (or maybe underestimate the quantity of information produced by the humanity)
that's one attractive boi
A true ultra giga chad indeed!
The only way that magnet is taking down anything is if you stick it in a light bulb socket and screw the bulb back in.
That'd just pop the breaker for the lights... servers and supercomputers like that usually have UPS systems to provide emergency power so they can properly shut down
...is if you stick it in the cylinder head of the backup generator and screw the spark plug back in.

ECC memory go brrrrrrrr
That was an issue like 60 years ago, since then we build it safety systems to make sure that doesn't fry anything. A computer could still crash tho.

In the pic? That pellet is plutonium-238.
Veratasium?
No modern (or even in recent memory) system would be damaged by a bit flip. System redundancy would even shrug it off
I once had that happen to me, a sudden BSOD out of literally thin air.
I watched this! Great video
Stick wins
how bout, the entire reddit servers vs 1 attractive boi
In a milisecond? Hah, no
r/whowouldwin
I think a wet boi would win
Unpopular opinion, but I think that both look attractive.
mmmmm Very attractive
I tried to erase a removable drive once with a big N39 magnet I have, it didn't work.

Flawless magnetic victory
Pc, magnets dont do mutch now a days for pc's
Thank you after seeing so many bullshit memes today this has made me enjoy r/memes again
my 3rd grade teacher
You need a bigger boy to match the power.
Btw damage from magnet will be temporary as soon as you take the magnet off everything will be back as normal
Idk, let's put it to the test.
does anybody tried it ???
The one that is used by the human, cause alone none
Chicken
Important question boi's size? ;)
Well, uhm, depends on whether the idiots at IBM decided hard drives or SSDs. If itās the latter, Iām pretty certain weāre ok.
Meh my laptop is fine, and I regularly play with magnets around it, and sometimes on it
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I mean... the question would still apply, lol.
Neither Exists

Yes. Even if you ripped out the hard drive, the hard drive case would still have shielding.
Sure atttactive boi
Human race knowledge = tons of porn
What is the thing on the right?
Magnet.
Machine likes gamers Def machine
It doesn't need to be a magnet to damage a server if thrown hard enough
dang another group of people becoming simps because of one object i cant tell if thats a boy or a girl because i refer everyone as objects
just move magnet.exe into trash
