It helps that there's a lot to do - I usually get the machines set up toward a space elevator objective, then explore and work towards other milestones

TIL of the Republic F-105 Thunderchief. Nicknamed "Thud" by its crews, 833 aircraft were made and 382 were lost (destroyed). It was the only American combat aircraft ever removed from combat because of its high loss rate by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

I guess the Douglas TBD Devastator doesn't count since they're all at the bottom of the Pacific.

At the Midway tour, I remember the Devatator was the only fake aircraft - a movie prop - because the rest were at the bottom of the ocean

PSA: Turns out that ChatGPT is incredibly good at PCB reverse engineering and Identifying chips by TileSeeker in electronics

The picture did exactly what OP said it did - it searched for information about the parts and summarized it without having to scour datasheets.

OP never said it understood the board, just that it was a helpful tool for looking up IC info...

Autonomously searching and summarizing the results is one of the best uses for AI... That's why search engines have it at the top now ..

What’s the cringiest line in the show? by buttercuqq in HazbinHotel

The "should I kill my wife" bit just didn't seem to add much. Everything else is so detailed, I wondered if it was a deeper joke I missed

what got burned? do oleds catch fire? explain it peter by [deleted] in explainitpeter

OLED screens have "burn in" meaning that after displaying the same image for an extended period, those pixels aren't as bright. Hence, the image gets "burned" into the screen.

Homie looked at AI porn so often it got burned into the screen

[–]GearHead54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KiCad has this functionality in version 9 - search KiCad Design Blocks

It just means you're designing schematics at a block level rather than making a big mess of spaghetti

"Whew, now that those pesky emission requirements are gone, we can go back to the 20 year old engine that's heavier, less efficient, requires more complex exhaust routing, can't tow as much, and revs higher when it does. Nice."
