just feeling all... blegh

oof. it was a day.

(some semiconductors have very similar electron and hole mobilities, and they wouldn't suffer from this problem. Some organic semiconductors have hole mobility higher than electron mobility, even! But silicon has very low hole mobility relative to electron mobility, and it's by far the most common and cheapest semiconductor.)
-F

(p-channel MOSFETs and p-type IGBTs, and pnp BJTs for that matter, are generally substantially lower performance than the n-channel/n-type/npn counterparts due primarily to the fact that most common semiconductors have much lower hole mobility than electron mobility, so unless they're absolutely required in some application they're generally avoided)
-F

we learned the other day that apparently they (specifically, Toshiba) actually do (or did) make IGBTs intended for analog amplification use, *including p-type IGBTs*, and that just feels extremely wild to us

we've never seen an IGBT used for anything other than power switching, and they're falling out of favor for that too as SiC MOSFETs become more available

and we've *definitely* never seen p-type ones

hmm. dragontaur, in a pretty dress

i know we'll never know, i just wonder
-F

you ever wonder like... who invented bread

is an extra-large crowbar a ravenbar

what the fuck is time

...oot3d was *ten years ago* as of this month

vulpix... cute

it's also quite expensive cable, though what might feel a bit counterintuitive is that it's not because of the silver--it's because of the plastic. It's very thin silver plating, hardly any actual silver in there--the reason it's so pricy is actually the insulation. FEP is an expensive plastic, though one with excellent properties for this particular purpose--good electrical insulation, highly flexible, and withstands really high temperatures
-F

(it uses FEP for insulation, which is a brownish transparent plastic through which you can see the silver-coated copper shield underneath. It's quite pretty cable, as cables go, actually)

i just described RG-316 as having a distinctive color, and i mean it does, but that is *such* an us thing to say
-F

arcanine is very pretty....

yes that includes you rose

And here's one that's just a good picture! I uploaded this one to the in-game "show off your pictures" feature and gave it a caption of "Dude, I think you burned it."
