mm

feeling bad
-F

@vogon is this a reference we're not getting or something? i feel like we're missing something here
-F

@Decimal if you're sick, you should absolutely call in sick to work--the time off will help, and you wouldn't be able to work as well as usual when you're sick anyway
-F

@codl i just don't understand what the "q=0.3" means
-F

@trysdyn (by which I mean basically put all the MSX version levels into a recreation of the NES version engine)
-F

@trysdyn Would be interesting to see if the MSX version could be brought up to the standards of the NES version, but that'd probably be a very lengthy project.
-F

actual words spoken by actual @sharkNserg::Connie on an actual stream actual today: "The saxophone is me, only heartless"
-F

@00dani it just reminded me of ys because we've been playing ys viii and now ys ix lately
-F

is trolling just not as big of a Thing anymore, or do we just hang around the right parts of the internet to avoid it
-F

@Kaffe@chitter.xyz oh, did they not have nomura do the character design for this one?
-F

@starkatt Some kind of wall hanging maybe?
-F

the best possible way someone could come out as trans would probably involve a trans man named Frank and the phrase "If I can be frank here,"
-F

@ziphi is that the lotus tile
-F

@00dani oh that's like a modern Ys game, with two party members for each damage type

@eldaking corundum is just another name for aluminum oxide, which is also called sapphire (or ruby, if it has specific impurities in it)
-F

@eldaking Aluminum oxide is a comparatively poor thermal conductor, but it's much cheaper than the nitride, and doesn't have the (*extreme*) toxicity of beryllium oxide, so it's somewhat popular for making things like ceramic heatsinks out of. I'd still rather use an AlN one when possible, though!

It's really a shame diamond is so expensive. It's got the highest thermal conductivity of any substance known, afawk, and solid diamond heatsinks would solve so many problems.
-F

@eldaking ah sorry i got a little bit infodumpy there
-F

@eldaking still, thermal paste is mostly used to get a good interface and nothing more, and that's for good reason--you really can't beat aluminum, copper, or dymalloy when it comes to thermal conductivity, so you try to get the heat into a heatsink made of one of those with as little stuff in the way as possible
-F

@eldaking though. i don't know about in thermal pastes, i thought those mostly used metal particles for thermal conduction, like bits of silver
