It's come to our attention just now that we understand what people mean when they say a place feels sacred, or holy.

It's that feeling of comfort and safety that you get in a library.

oh this is neat, apparently the yamaha dx7 achieved its 15-bit digital audio by using a 12-bit DAC and wiring a 3-bit DAC (actually an 8-to-1 analog multiplexer with a resistor ladder on its inputs) into its reference voltage.

it also ran the DAC at 800 kHz and multiplexed its output across sixteen voices for an effective 50 kHz per voice

also why the fuck is this apparently not a thing

tripping over power cords has been the cause of three of the four laptops we've had break on us breaking

and the other one had a third-party adapter that used an adapter that functioned as a breakaway

you'd think a breakaway plug would be the obvious thing to use here, so why do we not see more of them?

our current laptop even has a right-angle plug on it which makes it even more prone to such damage
