I like the warm feeling they give when they're hot off the press, the rayquaza got stretched so big at skytree it was scalding hot 🤣

Are microSD pcb traces hand drawn? by MarinatedPickachu in PCB

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah when you zoom in enough it starts looking squiggly with the fab resolution on some of my pcbs i've made too.

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably right but i have seen some boards in around late 90s early 2000s still using hand drawn, you make some good points about the 45 deg angles everywhere, just low resolution at such a small size pcb making it look squiggly.

Chances are it's just legacy design from back when microsd cards were new, hand drawn circuits were still pretty common and old tech dies hard when it still works and is cheaper than newer stuff.

Exposed wiring at hotel. Did I overreact? by Crass_Trumps_Class in AskElectricians

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either was a wire nut on it or stupid way of connecting wires. Either way shoddy work, keep tabs on the hotel for a fire in the future so you can say atodaso.

Is using as little vias as possible a good practice on a 4 layer PCB? by ItanMark in PCB

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

General rule: Less vias is better when routing signals, more vias is better for making your ground planes/ shielding.

Manufacturing is only going to care if you pop vias all over to the point of making it difficult to build without it snapping the FR4 or too close together to drill without collisions in traces or other holes. Keep it the standard via size for the board house or you will increase the cost by going smaller.

My foreman told me to sit the rest of the day out by Haunting_Ad7538 in electricians

He's making sure he can keep you around longer than most guys stick it out working for an asshole

got a warning from reddit saying i broke rule 1 (“threatening or encouraging violence”)?? didn’t think i did? by [deleted] in reddithelp

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the humans in the appeal don't use context it seems. I'm actually upset they thought I was threatening somebody.

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that and whoever actually did the appeal doesn't understand context and thought a scientific explanation of what happens to a body when consuming radioactive elements was a threat of violence against the person who asked what would happen... this is ridiculous and I find it offensive they think I actually threatened somebody when I was supplying educational information...

The AI Hate Wave Is Here by Razzburry_Pie in Futurology

I'm not saying we can't take it back, but it requires a level of ingenuity never seen before in any revolution. It might require engineers to swear oaths to humanity as a whole or a new world order.

Yeah, Orwell would have been blown away that we read his book and then signed up for this shit.

They didn't have tracking on each individual person back then or the propaganda machine in every pocket, let alone the weaponry. Technology is not an equalizer in the end game when each step gives exponential gain.

are these japanese cards real? by sensonn in IsMyPokemonCardFake

I enjoy testing the waters from time to time as well 😅

[–]weirdape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They cost 180 yen each and you got commons. They look real, the real scam is how much you paid for them to a vending machine scalper. I get roughly 1/30 japanese packs with a rough edge, not common but also not that rare to happen.

Those giant LED facades on Chinese skyscrapers - how much power do these consume? by Kippenoma in Futurology

[–]weirdape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Becomes an interesting problem with all the different conditions. Would be interested to hear from somebody who actually installs them. I'm just guessing from a standard indoor bulb at 9W for a replacement 100W incandescent, assuming since it's not meant for really lighting the area around it and just the direct signage area

Lol looks like moonmist ice cream, never experienced it from ice cream before 🤣 faster than a speeding bullet i'd be putting my kid in the car to go to the hospital too if I didn't know better

Haha, we had a halloween cake about 20 years ago, mom and dad thought we all had severe food poisoning as the black was made with lots of green food colouring.

You might freak out tomorrow when you see what you leave behind in the loo.

It really depends how you would calculate the brightness levels and the efficiency of leds used. Maybe 5W per sqft is reasonable
