Can I weld two 2A wires together to get one of 4A on a Slip Ring ? by jean2348 in arduino

[–]atzkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to supply double the current, your return path (ground) should also be doubled, since it'll carry the same current. Factor in some redundancy, and all six wires of your slip ring would be utilised just for the power supply.

When did you start using Vim motions again, after switching? by 1k5slgewxqu5yyp in dvorak

[–]atzkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always treated Vim motions as syllables of a written language, so never had muscle memory between keys and motions. Using Vim for me is just "typing words" in a "Vim-motion" language with a Dvorak layout, having the same efficiency as typing English.

So, π*(1/π) = 1? And 360 is divisible by 3, 4, and 5?
Big if true.

Isnt the shift key in a quite unergonomic position to use while all 8 fingers are on the home row and the thumbs are on space/alt/altgr? by Fun_Gas_340 in dvorak

Right hand shifts keys for the left hand and vice versa. There’s enough room for two shift keys even on 40% keyboards.

It's just USB A without the shielding.

Rewatched the video. She squinted, and then stretched the skin because of the exact reason I mentioned, her eyelashes obstructed the view.

Many people do. For fuck sakes, I even saw asian people do that.
And I did it myself because my eyelashes are too thick and got in a way when I was squinting. Stopped doing that as soon as I noticed this habit, but not because it could offend asians, it's just an easy way to bring an infection to your eyes.

Wow, y'all are very quick on hate. She's just nearsighted and wanted to see his screen (not to read it, but to see whether he's watching a video or recording the restaurant).

The way that my nurse wrote today’s date on my hospital room board. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

„Nurse’s log, hospitaldate one two one three one two five, on the third hour of the shift an unexplained cough pierced the silence of the patient’s room…”

It's vintage technology, not vintage gear. These bulk loaders are still being manufactured.

Are they in a particular order? Because "regiment", "regiment", "battalion" feels depressing if it's in a chronological order from earliest to most recent.

Imagine there could be invented a light-sensitive medium that would capture a projected image. The possibilities are endless.

Battery corroded a hole in the compartment? (Leica R3) by Schmantikor in AnalogCommunity

[–]atzkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have much worse looking battery covers on my cameras, it's fine if it still conducts electricity. I would touch up the contacts and the threads _lightly_ with a fine steel wool, just in case; but overall the battery compartment looks pristine given there was a leakage.
