any folklorists out there know why exactly the idea of a magic sword is so Big in european, particularly germanic/norse, mythology?

still thinking about this.........

want to be either side of this interaction honestly

occasionally I'm reminded that most other languages call capacitors "accumulators" and it makes them sound really old-fashioned because most cases of that word being used in english are from the 19th or 18th century

raccoons... cute

some languages use , for the thousands separator and . for the radix point. Others use . for the thousands separator and , for the radix point. this is needlessly confusing, and as such, in the future I will use : for both the thousands separator and the radix point

dysprosium!

@Oneironott inspired this, just the few recent posts it made about nullpatches -w-

how weird do you think the idea of capitalization is to people who grew up reading exclusively like, arabic or something

said used game store had also just gotten in the SNES along with two copies of ALttP, four copies of SMW, a copy of Super Mario All-Stars, a copy of Mega Man X, a copy of fucking Chrono Trigger, and assorted other SNES games

the chrono trigger cart cost several times more than the SNES itself did

Well, that was an interesting occurrance. Went to a local used game store to get a disc resurfaced, and while we were going there anyway I grabbed a couple games we'd found out we had two of while cleaning the other day to sell. We ended up trading the games in for a surprisingly-good-condition SNES console.

Random fact of the day!

Any good (key word: good) digital multimeter also includes an analog multimeter. The reason for this is that, while it is fast, the analog-to-digital conversion does take time; the higher the precision, the more time it takes. This means that short transient spikes can get missed completely if they happen between conversions. To mitigate this, analog multimeter circuitry is added that bypasses the digital side entirely, outputting directly to a bargraph on the display.

what does gebating mean?

you can tell it to stop recommending you an individual item but that doesn't work on playlists (and I don't know if it works at all really)

how do I get youtube to stop recommending me playlists titled things like "illegal memes"

I don't understand people who change their icon anything more frequently than like, once every three months
