LM358

You do you. After the takedowns of its predecessors (Napster, Oink, What.cd) some quite literal gatekeeping is required IMO.

I don't know where you get that snobbish vibe from (maybe my comment, in which case it wasn't intentional), but of course it's easy to just use yt-dlp or whatever. The places I frequent come with curation, organization, quality control and a community of people who deeply care about music which is something I value a lot.

Seeding, uploading and staying in it for the long haul is a lot more work than just buying a Spotify subscription and certainly not for everyone, but as someone who is constantly disappointed by the selection available on streaming services and also need local files for DJing, I couldn't imagine living without it.

Sharings platforms still exist, they just get less mainstream exposure, for obvious reasons. They are also more exclusive and generally require more effort than back in the days.

>For people in agreement with Vivaldi, how are you summarizing articles today?

I fucking read, like absolutely everyone and their dog did two years ago before this pest stole everyone's attention.

>If only they'd add a 'close all tabs but this one' feature.

???

Right click tab -> O ?

Edit: oh, you're talking about Edge, not Vivaldi

Inhaling enough zinc can also definitely kill you. https://www.anvilfire.com/iForge/tutor.php?lesson=safety3/de...

People who are serious about turntable repair have calibration records with sine waves for that purpose.

Even worse when it's wrong, Discogs insists that October 2021 is "over three years ago"

Free shipping after some amount (varies with where you are in the world apparently) and I get my parcels from Mouser in 2-3 days shipped over the Atlantic. RS is even faster.

Fair enough, but I do not understand why people seem to put so much trust in Amazon. Ali et. al. is of course a crapshoot every time, based on the threads that pop up here every few weeks Amazon seems to be an endless supply of poor quality goods, counterfeits and whatnot as well.

I find this amazon obsession with people on the internet (I assume Americans) to be baffling and disturbing, it's always amazon this, prime that every time the concept of purchasing something online comes up.

Mouser has the Zero for 15$, 16$ if you want presoldered GPIO headers. 4$ for a Pico. RS Online has them for 4.25$. There are probably hundreds of vendors that offer them for the same price if you plop the term into your favorite search engine. Amazon is the last place I'd look, but then again I absolutely do not understand this mindset that online shopping == amazon that some people seem to have.

It's one of my favorite websites. Complete madness. It's been like this for something like 20 years.

A friend of mine told me that he apparently has a physical store as well, which has exactly the same vibe as the website.

Yeah I find this very strange as well. Isn't this more or less exactly what Apple did 6-7 years ago which was almost universally hated?

The executables and source code are sadly not freely available any more, allegedly for ITAR reasons.

This day holds a specific significance to me, as it's ten years since my first psychedelic experience - with LSD.

Opium, cannabis et. al. would like a word with you...

It involves flammable and toxic gas at 200 bar pressure and 500 degrees C, so not something for the faint of heart.

>wouldn't the code and its comments become documentation that would otherwise be in the well-drawn schematic?

Technically, yes, but 99% of EEs would not approve of code in some weird new DSL as documentation for a circuit. While it may contain the same information as a drawn schematic, it is much more inscrutable and introduces mental overhead when you actually need to read it.

There's also a huge difference between a poorly laid out schematic and an excellent one; the latter makes it easier to follow the flow of signals and power through relevant parts of the circuit and allows you to easily pick out the different parts/modules and how they play their part in the circuit as a whole, all with a quick glance at a drawing.

I guess a (poor) software analogy would be that you could surely implement a function as a bunch of GOTOs and/or BRANCH commands, but just making a nested for loop would make the logic much clearer.

You are aware that leaded solder is in use in many industries to this day?

I'm soldering with SN62 now as we speak.

Could it just be due to lack of hardware video decoding? The Pi3 has x264 HW acceleration and youtube started using other codecs a while ago.

I don't work in this field (just adjacent to it), but I would start looking at Digi-Key, RS, Mouser, Farnell. It might be that people working in power electronics have other go-to suppliers but I'm not familiar with them.

Amazon is definitely the wrong place to look for products in this category.

Frankly it seems more like an "SWE take" more than a regular armchair take.

I don't think anyone here can imagine my bewilderment, confusion, and ultimately anger, the day I discovered that in the web interface for Outlook, Ctrl+V is the default shortcut for... send email.

I would very much like to know what went through their heads when they decided on that. On further thought, maybe I don't.
