IIRC, the first model ate mosfets for breakfast because the photo resistor is way too slow going from illuminated to dark. That leaves the mosfet in a fairly high resistance state for an extended amount of time during which it dissipates a lot of power. You should add some kind of Schmitt trigger inverter that buffers the resistive divider and gives you a clean narrow edge to drive the mosfet gate. A 74HC14 together with a 7805 voltage regulator should give you enough output voltage to drive the mosfet. These chips cost less than a single replacement mosfet and you can drive 6 coils with them.

And all the gold for his grillz? And the NMR and FTIR machines? Those are at least more broadly useful. Still, looks like he has way too much money on his hands.

This was followed by Orandazuma wa Denki Unagi no Yume o Miru ka? (Do Dutch Wives Dream of Electric Eels?, Dec. 1984, PC-8801). Inspired by Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), players take on the role of a private investigator who has to track down a sex doll (called Dutch wives in Japan) that has become sentient and is murdering its lovers. The player tracks down the rogue doll by seducing all the women in Tokyo’s red-light district.

The concept sounds awesome. The porno parody “Blade Runner” needed.

IIRC from the “What we left behind” documentary, they were shot on film. They even had a few minutes of HD material scanned from the film reels. It’s the CGI that was baked only into the tape version that makes it so difficult to do a HD remaster. And why they went back to the tapes when producing the DVD release.

Sie haben Newag falsch geschrieben.

Wie schon ein altes hessisches Sprichwort sagt:

Was geht ab? Wasserfab. Was bleibt dran? Edding, mann.

Nach manchem Arbeitstag fühle ich mich, als ob mir mit dem Arbeitstag eins übergebraten wurde.

Sets of measure zero are unfair. But you’re right, the second line in the image is basically an eigenvector equation for Int and eigenvalue 1, where the whole point is that there is a subspace that is mapped to zero by the operator.

I’m still curious if one could make this work. This looks similar to problems encountered in perturbation theory, when you look for eigenvectors of an operator related to one where you have the spectrum.

What is meant here, I believe, is (1 - Int)^-1. Writing 1/(1 - Int) is an abuse of notation, especially when the numerator isn’t just 1 but another operator, which loses the distinction between a left and a right inverse. But for a bounded linear operator on a normed vector space, and I think Int over an appropriately chosen space of functions qualifies, (1 - Int)^-1 equals the Neumann series \sum_k=0^∞ Int^k, exactly as in the derivation.

Int is injective: Take Int f = Int g, apply the derivative, and the fundamental theorem gives you f = g. I think you can make it bijective by working with equivalence classes of functions that differ only by a constant.

Especially when you don’t have a US keyboard. How the fuck am I supposed to navigate through the info document when the key combination to follow links is Ctrl+] and ] itself is hidden behind some modifier combo?

Dude, 13000 deaths are approximately 28% of the total traffic death toll for 2021. Even if I take the data for 2014, with the all-time low of 1.17 fatalities per 100m mi driven, that 28% is more than the 0.12 total fatalities in Germany (1.9 per bn km, 2018). Maybe the government could start fixing driver’s ed and make sure vehicles are actually road safe.

With 43 kcal/100ml you need about 4.6 liters or 5 qts to satisfy your caloric needs (2000kcal/day). If you even out the intake over the whole day, alcohol levels should be low enough to keep you functioning. Beer also contains a bit of protein and low levels of sodium, potassium and magnesium.

Long term, you’ll get scurvy after a few months due to lack of vitamin C and liver cirrhosis from the sustained alcohol use.

Die INSM ist von Gesamtmetall gegründet und wird von BDI und BDA über das Institut der deutschen Wirtschaft betrieben. Bertelsmann taucht da nicht direkt auf. Wie sind die da involviert?

Bulletstorm for some over-the-top action. The setting and tone is similar to Borderlands but it’s a classic FPS, not a loot’n’shoot.

You know that CO2 concentration is at 421 ppm, (0.0421%) up from 280 ppm in 1850? That change is negligible compared to the 21% oxygen. Standing in a crowd or being inside causes a much higher variation of the oxygen concentration. Even moving up 2 meters changes the amount of oxygen molecules per volume by more than that.

It’s reverse: you get a board that has a floppy interface on one side and a USB socket on the other. You plug in a USB drive and the board uses a file on the drive as the floppy disk, pretending to be a floppy Drive connected to the interface. It’s a little less convenient because you have to deal with disk images but it works without moving parts.

It’s probably not a good idea for actual use, but if you’d like to experiment: looks like the 3-pin devices U4 and U5 on the upper right provide feedback through the optocouplers next to the class Y cap north of the transformer. I bet those are LM431 voltage references (or similar). The passives around them provide filtering, but two of the resistors should form a resistor divider for the Ref pin (lower right pin if the single pin is on top). That divider sets the voltage.
