The only good news is that said readers are dying off due to old age.

I've been hearing this sentiment all of my 40ish years and yet here the world is.

No, but i do rub the folded up tissue around between my fingers to assess and admire the volume of my expulsion

I'm so glad I filtered the orange man and his rich bat-monkey out of my feed so I only hear about this stupid shit in meme form.

I've started rinsing my coffee cup out after I'm done to prevent dried on coffee that the dishwasher can't get. in c/dull_mens_club

I wash mine every few months. In between washes I sometimes pick off the lip gunk. I know The navy takes it a little more seriously though.

My wife uses approximately eleventy mugs a day for who knows what purpose, and fills up the top dishwasher rack.

Do you often dumb-down what you say on social media? in c/[email protected]

I do when I'm arguing with conservatives on Reddit. Otherwise I strive for clarity and simplicity but not dumbness

Pneumonia or something (self.dull_mens_club)

My oldest kid was out of school a whole week with pneumonia a couple weeks ago. I got very little work done (no work = no $ but that's OK in the short term).

On Friday I got a fever, chills, headache, lots of coughing, and massive massive fatigue. Now getting very little work done again. I'm probably going to be at like 40% typical income for the month. Again, OK in the short term but I got goals and this isn't helping you know?

By Tuesday it was about the same level so I did a "telehealth" visit thing and they said, yeah suck it up and take some robitussin.

Last night I started hearing the sound of rice krispies coming from my throat after a breath. I think that's a pretty tell tale sign of fluid in the lungs.

So today I went to urgent care. They did a chest x ray but the radiologist was out and the doctor found the imaging inconclusive but put me on antibiotics anyway.

Hopefully I will start feeling better in a day or two. This sucks.

Why did my PLA crumble after 6 weeks idle in my printer? (self.3dprinting)
submitted 9 months ago by lemmyman to c/3dprinting

I left a spool of eSun PLA+ beige in my Prusa MK4 with Prusa enclosure, which has sat idle since my last print about 6 weeks ago. The enclosure has a PTFE filament feed tube that runs the filament from the spool to the extruder.

Today I went to change the filament, and it broke apart in several pieces, right at the ends of the ptfe filament feed tube. The filament on the spool itself - within an inch of where it simply separated from the broken bits - I can fold over 180° tight without breaking it. Even the several ~1" lengths of broken bits are similarly ductile.

Ambient humidity is something like 15% (per my filament dryer) to 30% (per my dehumidifier, which is idle because it's winter).

Any idea why this happened? I'm curious about maybe interactions with the PETG parts that the broken pieces were close to (that's the only thing I can come up with, anyway).

Benchtop current sense amplifier? (self.ece)
submitted 1 year ago by lemmyman to c/ece

Anyone have a recommendation for a benchtop current sense amplifier?

Sure, there are current sense breakout boards and whatnot. But what I'd like is a convenient device that I can use to instrument a circuit and then monitor its current with my oscilloscope or logic analyzer (Saleae with analog input) along with other signals in the circuit.

Ideal features might be:

  • Banana jack inputs and outputs
  • Selectable range / sensitivity / sense resistor
  • Isolated measurement, so I can measure high-side or low-side currents without worrying too much about the common connection on my scope
  • Selectable or automatic power source selection, between circuit-powered and externally-powered

I haven't seen anything like this in a few targeted searches, and just wondering if someone has any suggestions I might have missed.
