a current-to-voltage converter, also called a resistor,

does anyone ever just think about how horribly designed those 12 V car power sockets/plugs are?

who is this... hugh mann people keep talking about

with poofy tails

foxes are just loud triangles

you ever have one of those days where doing anything productive feels incredibly intimidating?

trying to look up stuff about electrical discharge machining and apparently EDM has another completely unrelated meaning that's more popular

what exactly is gpu memory for and why does minecraft not seem to make use of it

we'd assumed it'd be used for like, textures and framebuffers and stuff but minecraft appears to load all of those into main memory

quiiiil.

this was originally going to say kiloampere, but then we realized that's not at all out of the realm of possibility in industrial and power distribution systems, so it wouldn't terrify *any* electrical engineer

gigampere

you know what would be a really good tool for modded minecraft? Something that gives you a GUI for modifying things like worldgen (easily turn off worldgen in most of the mods that add copper, for instance, so you only have one type of copper ore), loot tables, and recipes (for when your modpack should have custom recipes)

bonus points if it has fun movement abilities like the harry potter games' spongify and carpe retractum

random thought: has anyone ever made another game in the style of the early Harry Potter pc games? like, 3d platformer kind of thing where you learn magic abilities that let you get to new places almost metroidvania-style, with minimal focus on combat and large focus on secrets to find and interesting level design

good morning it is too early

the fractional quantum hall effect is weird because the words "fractional" and "quantum" just don't go together, that's kind of the whole point

it feels weird that there are regions of operation where the conduction losses in a power MOSFET can be higher than those of a similarly rated power IGBT but such is the case regardless
