sometimes I like to just look on digi-key and click the most extreme values in their parametric search stuff (yes, i'm a nerd)

apparently, you can get an op amp, the LMC662C, with a maximum input bias current of two _femtoamperes_. 0.002 pA. That's _ridiculous_. How do you even measure that‽

...apparently they make 8-pin SOT-23 packages. Huh.

imagine a microcontroller with digital i/o pins that can source 50 amperes....

oh dear, they were talking about drawing this power from a _digital i/o_ pin

*looks on stackexchange* *sees someone asking if they can use a 10A 24V power supply for a 10.4A motor* "Okay, that's probably fine..." *notices that they say "it will take 5V power from my arduino and step it up to 24V to power the motor"* "No, nope, not gonna happen, no way."

Sometimes, people don't really think things through.

A store we went to the other day sold both non-flammable and regular aerosol dusters. For the same price, too, and the same weight.

So why even sell the flammable kind?

what? I hadn't known there was even one!

toast is weird. There seems to be no space at all between "barely toasted" and "burnt to a crisp".

Today is apparently stressed-for-no-reason-day. This is the worst holiday.

Why are trophies so often just big shiny cups?

this is seriously distressing, in a way I really don't know how to describe

it's very definitely an accessability problem, I can say that much

okay does anyone know anything about fixing android phones after they update

apparently they decided it was a good idea to animate the home button now and I do _not_ like it. _at all._ That section of the screen is supposed to be monochrome and it should not have multicolored dots swirling around

*exactly four hundred ninety three thousand two hundred four beeps*

@ashiinu@snouts.online every time I see your name I think that the emoji is a scoop of trans-flag-colored ice cream at first because it's scaled down so much

I find this mildly amusing and worth sharing!

Very few games have ever managed to get really deep emotional responses from us. I consider those games some of the best we've ever played:

Mother 3
Tales of Xillia 2
Every Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game

(we've never seen the game before but we have heard that it's bad)

*sees literally three seconds of footage of Metroid: Other M*

Holy crap how the hell did they mess up Samus's characterization this bad
