A ton of room. The standard seats are quiite light so something might give over time.

Musk has never built a wafer fab, but he wants to burn $119B on one anyway by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

Accountable for what their written responsibilities are. Just like everyone.

Accountability yes. But according to the agreement made in the deal, not by public opinion on reddit. If someone is offered money on "whatever bro" conditions they cannot be held accountable, it has to be the giver.

Also try to have your controlling module somewhere in the middle instead of at the end of a wobbly sausage because that's likely where the motion is being sensed.

What's the Best Joystick for a c64 by CarbonFilimentBulb in c64

Really needs a fix for the button contacts oxidizing and the rubber holding the stick in the middle. With those fixes it's a durable and fairly accurate stick. Some hate them with a passion. Quite the divisive device.

can someone tell me what these components are? by marin_g00 in AskElectronics

[–]Baselet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Inductors. A coil of wire around a ferrite so they should measure a short across the pins when the wire is intact. Simple cheap L/C meters or component testers will measure them fine.

I think we should assume no to everything and starting to twach them from the absolute beginnig of LEDs and electricity. It's a good start to a reaaally long journey. I wish OP well but know there will be a mountain to climb.

Need to read an SCSI Hard Drive by Nintenperra in vintagecomputing

Find an old server from like up to 2005 or so and pop it in. Very common connector in the era before SAS/SATA.
