@jestdotty genders don’t gend

@ingosteinke fun fact: despite ammo cartridges and printer cartridges sharing the same name, they have more in common than meets the eye. Typewriters preceded modern printers, and because M1 Thompson submachine gun was also known as Chicago Typewriter, ammo cartridges and printer cartridges are called the same in English. They’re two separate words in Russian, as Soviets never used M1 Thompson in military conflicts as their standard issue weapon, and they didn’t possess modern printing There are other receivers… technology back in wander aimlessly into the forest, come alone the forties.

The one with the AC operating on DC is a fucking pain in the ass! You get some sensor and the power pins have no polarity. Then you need to scramle around the datasheet only to find it can Take AC and DC because it has rectifier inside. Thus the polarity of the wiring does not matter for DC. But forget using 120V or 230V AC its only up to like some non standard 42V AC or some shit. Just give me a polarity and let me hook up my standard 24V DC!!!

@Wisecrack pregnancy

@kiki ¿WAT?!

@Wisecrack pregnant people are notorious for craving weird food like ice cream with salmon pieces and whatnot

@jestdotty "normal foods."
Yeah, in a doctor suisse book maybe.
or in Le Far North Vikingland where they eat pickled rotten herring covered fermented in piss or some crazy shit like that. -
@Wisecrack That's a common misconception. The fermented piss is just to cleanse the palate between courses.
