Surge suppressors do not drop extra voltage to ground. They selectively short out surges between whatever two conductors have a high potential between them.
No ground conductor means there cannot be a high potential between it and anything else!

This data seems way off - steak has 24-30g of protein per 100g, for example
A battery (or transformer secondary) has two terminals - neither is “ground”, and electricity will flow between them if a circuit is formed.
Often, one terminal of a battery or transformer is connected to a ground stake, so it’s possible for ground to become part of the circuit. But ground is not any kind of natural destination for electricity. (Other than lightning, which is a result of a charge forming between the earth and the clouds)
it doesn’t “find” the path of least resistance. It takes (flows along) all possible paths simultaneously. If you connect two wires in parallel between the terminals of a battery, one of which is thick (resistance) and one of which is thin (high resistance), current will flow along both.
What? No. Electricity takes all conductive paths through a circuit simultaneously, with a current in inverse proportion to the path resistance. Ground means nothing unless it somehow makes up a part of the circuit - it is neither a “sink” nor “zero” for electricity. It’s just dirt.
yeah they are selling “wireless home internet” hard now, can’t have people using their phone hotspot for that.
Guys, he made the joke!
Fun fact: a US nickel weighs 5.000g, and 5 US quarters weigh 1.0000oz
FYI, banks do run exactly this type of analysis inside their own system to get around not being able to share your account activity.
honestly, I don’t want established Reddit supermods land grabbing topics in the Fediverse. The right people will find it organically based on their own motivation (as simple as searching for “reddit alternatives”).
Especially don’t want the shallow, low-quality content from default/“top” subreddits.
“prove it wrong”? “as we’re told”? Do you start conversations this way?
Bro, if you don’t like it you don’t have to use it.
yeah, communities should have subject tag sets. I don’t care for anime or sports or video games - i should be able to turn off those tags. Not block 50 different game communities ad hoc
