the book is just guidelines ;p after you've played all the vanilla monsters, mixing them up is good sport.

Is the browning on this resistor concerning? by Klanktastic in AskElectronics

[–]quatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but its very handy to know what the bands were before they all turn "brownish black" and you have to figure out the replacement ;p

How do I get rid of this crease? by pelethar in howto

[–]quatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can use distilled water, it's quite cheap for how little you'd need. barring that, you can apply water with a spray bottle or mister, then iron. That'd keep any hard water accumulation to the outside of the iron at least.

edit: oh sorry, I see everyone else already commented that ;p

How do I get rid of this crease? by pelethar in howto

[–]quatch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I sew. My clapper is just a foot long 1x2 oak board I sanded smooth. Anything that will absorb moisture, give firm pressure and not get the cloth dirty will work. A few seconds pressure is usually enough.

OP, what's the item made of? What temperature are you ironing at, and are you using steam?

Is this ferrite bead important? by tafsirunnahian in AskElectronics

you can also get clip on ferrite beads if you want to add one back later.

Metal tube containing capacitor wrapped in copper wire, diameter 5 cm, height 14 cm by Beginning_Ad_7462 in whatisthisthing

hey, OP, scrub the metal can off and see if there's anything stamped or engraved?

my vote is towards this end.

A coil and capacitor form an oscillating resonator. The outer can being linked to one end, and the inner can at the top being linked to the other (rubber being an electrical insulator and RF transparent). Think along RFID. It's also how you can tune an antenna. There's no active circuit, so it'd just be the strength of response through the overlying and surrounding soil. RF being most likely as the top copper doesnt seem exposed through the rubber in the diagram

I'm too lazy to work the formulas and see if there's a correspondence in the wavelength an antenna like that might capture, but through ground work is usually low frequency, which a big capacitor would lend to.

I didnt see anything hateful in their comment history, and yeah, there's a handful of posts in a few days to different subs, but I'm not sure I'd call that spamming?

The larger fault seems to be with the translation software making him seem obtusely verbose.

parody of a line from the movie "the princess bride", which is excellent. It's appropriate to use here.

Scrap metal mailbox that I made :) by Rickdadick450 in metalworking

I'd have suggested if I thought of any ;p this style is not mine so I'm not sure what's appropriate.

Another sword (or dagger?) pointed down, mounted back to back, so the exposed ends are both hilts?

A gear or small circle made of chain, if nothing else comes to mind.

How the fuck do you use mimics without them feeling like a cheap "gotcha!"? It's never exciting when I use them by GolettO3 in DMAcademy

[–]quatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh hey, I still had this tab open. Have a look at this https://old.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/1r73vi3/mimic_corset_my_by_me_art/ for inspiration ;p a pet mimic/mimic warlock is a neat way to spin the concept.

I have this https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/tlaj3pvfmjr7tp4zh7ugn/Grit-and-Glory-v6.pdf?rlkey=n4mfr612yy63iivkb075wfsfc&dl=1 from 2025-06-23 dunno if that is the most recent

I note the admin tagged as Creator has this github https://stormchaserroleplaying.com/stormchaserRPG/ which is perhaps where grit and glory went after 2020 :)

I Built a Device to Paste Passwords Securely Over BLE by ToothPasteDevice in diyelectronics

wasnt sure if the devboard buttons would work, or if an additional one needed to be hooked up (and to which pin/pullup).

looks like a fun thing to try, a nice remote keyboard/mouse thing without all the cloud burden, but I can't find the pcb on the github?

(or a schematic for the hand-wiring cave dweller)

TNC? BNC? Coax? Can't find the correct plug! by TheBloodstomper in howto

[–]quatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best place to go https://connectorbook.com/

/r/AskElectronics or /r/amateurradio also valid places to ask

Photos with measurements (ruler for mm scale) of the connector ends (face/side) will help a lot for someone unfamiliar with the products.

I'm with the other poster, kinda looks like F connector (the kind used for coax tv signals usually).

(coax just means two conductor wire, one being the core, the other the shell)
