How deep can you go with it? When I tried with my modern spektrum radio, it didnt penetrate the water too deep. Lower fq works better.

No such thing as "Legos". Lego bricks or pieces are used to build things made of Lego. Chess men are not called "chesses", etc.
QuartzPoker
If it's the word people use, then it is the correct word. Language is a tool of the people, not the master.
Xen300
Unless there is a consensus on usage, we talk at cross-purposes. The aim of language is effective communication, i.e. improved clarity.
QuartzPoker
Consensus does not need to be absolute, nor will it ever be absolute. You understood what was meant, I assume? Then the communication worked
Anthrama
Do people still do Lego Robotics? I did that forever ago in 4H... It was the best.

Motherfucker made a Lego drone
TheNoirAntagonist
Rov is a remotely operated vehicle. typically used for sea exploration
Hutchy01
Motherfucker also made a Lego drone in addition to his submarines.

Someone has fallen into Lego City River, build the submarine!
Polsnulspace
LEGO is awesome.
LSAH
LEGO is both singular and plural. Legos is like saying sheeps or feets. Just trying to write legos, it would’ve tried to autocorrect you.
mrputter
TBH I'm mostly amazed you were able to stick the props on with only a couple cm² of double-sided sticky tape! I wouldn't have had the faith!
ArealJim
That isnt the only thing holding it together. The magnets...
bl0ke
There is only one LEGO. The individual pieces are called bricks.

What if there are more than one species of lego present, like for fishes, would it be legos then?
Lobangpuki
I fucking hate it when people (murricans) say legos.
aRootinaTootin
ShipWreck89
Also a noun and a verb
LSAH
Don’t confuse them.
LSAH
Trying to write it, the system I have will autocorrect, so to actually write legos the person must have overridden the autocorrect.
Vyrro
Lego is the brand
PianoMan2112
LEGO is the brand (even though it’s not an acronym)
shorey66
It's definitely not an acronym, LE-GO means Play Well in Danish I believe our at least that's what Old Kirk said.
detleth
Yup, “Leg godt”

The company itself use Lego as a mass noun. Apparently, only the US use the plural. Every other country use the mass noun.
IHaveABridgeToSell
Not true. Many languages don’t have that same syntactic structure and use a plural form the word lego, like legor, legot etc.
Draig1
The company used the mass noun. So does every country except America.
IHaveABridgeToSell
Are you aware that other countries use different languages? Different languages have different structures. Not all even have a mass noun.
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
Wait. So you’re telling me that if a Brit accidentally kicked over a bucket FULL of these, he would yell, “Blimey! My Lego!”? Without an S?
LSAH
Yes, they kicked over the bucket with their feets... while counting sheeps...
Draig1
Yep. And almost every nationality would do the same. Except an American.
ZiltoidIndeed
Maybe english speaking nationality, not true to "every".
Draig1
Point.
SlappySamsonite
So sort of like them and one other tiny country holding on to whacky imperial as a standard unit of measure?
Draig1
Yes, yes I am.
SlyeFox
America uses US Customary Units, not Imperial.
DoomRandom
Thats a different name for the same thing.
SpecialAgentCharlesCarmichael
I know, but I hate it. Like moose. They need to pick a better name.
HollowmanZU
The plural for moose is meese, and you know it! >:C
KittyKittenBeast
Moosen. Many much moosen in the woods, woodsen.
theoccultist
When?
BumFacedGoat
Brian Regan? :))
KittyKittenBeast
Yes
doesntmatter
The actual name for moose is elk. Americans just started calling the wrong animal elk
kruug
Ah, Americans as in “those from America”, not Americans as in “those from the US”.
doesntmatter
in this case they're pretty much the same really
kruug
That just calls out ”North America”. So you also get Canada, eh.

Saying “Legos” makes a person sound like a 5 year old.

So does having petty grievances.
yeahiheardaboutpluto
TIL I sound like a 5 year old
SlappySamsonite
Do you say “on accident” instead of “by accident” too?
yeahiheardaboutpluto
So I looked it up and LEGO is neither singular nor plural. The company refers to their name as an adjective (always all uppercase) and
yeahiheardaboutpluto
describes their product as such (e.g. LEGO bricks, LEGO sets) https://twitter.com/LEGO_Group/status/842115345280294912?s=09
TwelveMotionJeweledSkull
Yeah, and people who say Velcro instead of hook-and-loop and uncultured swine as well.
SlyeFox
But the inventor named it Velcro.
TwelveMotionJeweledSkull
Too bad that’s not the name for the generic product now, isn’t it? Turns out patent office decides that, not the inventor.
aRootinaTootin
Saying "Lego is the plural of Lego" makes a person sound like a know-it-all douche.
SlappySamsonite
Who are you quoting professor?

SuperSlowMarc
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH USING THE CORRECT TERM. A DOUCHE IS ONE WHO CRITICIZES OR CONDEMNS THAT ACTION.
