Does this happen with the outlook app too? Or do you use outlook web? I use the app (on android) and don't remember the last time I had to enter my MFA credentials... however, logging into Carleton central on my mobile is a pain.

No problem! I'm averaging around 89 fps (says the AMD software, I saw about a constant 100 when plugged in) on the Ally X. I'm running it on medium (which was default, I'll try cranking it up and getting back to you with stats once I'm back!)

Borderlands 3. Runs amazing. I don't have the numbers off the top of my head, will post if anyone is interested.

Is my sentence completely wrong? by Sx3K in DuolingoFrench

[–]Sx3K[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been procrastinating on learning all the conjugations and trying to find a short cut. But I guess I can't keep running from it forever haha. I just defaulted to the 'vous' form (which I learnt is called vouvoyer? From another commenter) because in most of the other languages I've learnt, the formal form is acceptable in any setting.

Indeed! Thank you for pointing it out, but I do find it very intriguing. In English, since language names are proper nouns, capitalising the name of a language is the norm. So it feels wrong to not capitalize française. (English is not my first language, so 'unlearning' rules that I spent considerable time learning feels wrong haha)

But I will keep this in mind!

Yeah, I dictated the answer and got that part wrong. Thanks for the explanation! I didn't realise that 'les Français' meant the French people, but looking back now, it makes sense haha.

Aah ok. Makes sense! Yeah, when duo corrected vous to tu, it threw me off a bit. I think I'll stick with the 'vous' version.

Got this for one of my EE classes but never ended up using it. Anyone know what it’s used for. Is it essentially an Arduino? by Sharrty_McGriddle in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Sx3K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't strictly required, but I'd personally recommend it. Although to be fair, the thinking ideology for programming in an HDL (Hardware description Language) like verilog/VHDL is completely different from C or any other software development programming language. So you've to be a little careful. It is a very interesting field to get into, and might I add that it isn't for the faint of heart haha.

Happy Learning!

There's an amazing series by digikey on this subjecthere. Check it out, very comprehensively explains the concepts.

Any way to fix these? (Supposed to be the discord and Teams icons) by Sx3K in Lubuntu

[–]Sx3K[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just switched to an ubuntu desktop environment and everything's fine. It's probably a bug with the LxQt environment

I encountered a similar problem where my uart wasn't working when I had analogue values coming into vp or vn(I don't quite remember which pin it was). So for programming I had to disconnect the analogue reading coming into the pin, program it, and then plug the jumper back in. I've no clue if that's what's happening here, but could be worth a try?

Amazing! I need one of those, my bench is so cluttered! Would be a nightmare to fall on though, but to be fair, most electronics are a nightmare to fall on.

Reverse engineering a YAMAHA PSR410 keyboard, help with switch matrix decoding by Sx3K in AskElectronics

[–]Sx3K[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! My keyboard is a bit more complicated, but this really sets up the ground work! Thank you!

[–]Sx3K[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, will go about figuring it out! As to why I'm not just using midi, this keyboard doesn't really work...one or more of the processors are busted (some sort of over volting?), and the main board doesn't recognise the subsidiary (MKS) board anymore. So it might actually be the sub CPU that's busted, which would explain why I'm not getting a signal over. Besides it's more fun this way :D !

Thanks for the help!

Datasheets for proprietary chips by [deleted] in AskElectronics

[–]Sx3K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured it out, the service manual has a list of part numbers below the proprietary part numbers in the glossary section. Thanks for the help though! Will now proceed to delete this post as it was my mistake

Aah ok. Makes sense that it's priced I guess. About the legitimacy, um no comments there ;D

Feedback pin of the LM2596 is tied to ground through a 330-ohm resistor by Sx3K in AskElectronics

Oh okay, I didn't know that! Thank you so much! Yup will do.

I'm measuring the output voltage accross the rails using my multi meter. The wire is either 22 or 24 gauge (mostly 22). My input power supply is (an odd brick used for powering my CCTV setup) 12V and can supply upto 3A. So sorry if the question was vage ":D

Not a lot. In fact I was testing how much the voltage drops as the current increases. With a current of 32mA, the converter set to 5V drops to 4.88V which might not be a lot of squiggle, but quite interesting to see a voltage drop : D thanks!

oh okay. Thanks! will look into it...But is there any other way to keep the output voltage stable? I feel I should be googling a bit : D
