The last point should be the first one - take something unique if you're going to. Don't just take more bland photos of fireworks

Interesting to see such old games getting any attention in terms of licensing

Even with your simplistic fossil fuel car in your example the alternator within can also be used as a motor.

Not by "simply reversing the flow" it can't. You'd need to remove and replace many components, just like the example of changing an Rx to Tx system

An LED (or photodiode used as one) is a fairly simplistic device compared to an assembled receiver / transmitter. Just like you can burn gasoline in a car but you can't push a car to turn the engine to make gasoline - it's a complex system that really only works one way.

if you invert the flow of electrons, a receiver becomes a transmitter

Ehh not really. That's kind of like saying if you invert the flow of photons, your eyes work as flashlights.

"It could be possible with some changes" the changes would amount to removing the receiver and replacing it with a transmitter. In this specific case I'm not sure if a transmitter already exists at this antenna and it's definitely possible one does, but that's not a guarantee at all

"RTFM" My irritation is that most recipes make a huge amount of assumptions - at least as many as code that assumes a certain version of library. You can get recipes that say things as vague as "prepare the chicken" and aren't at all clear what they mean, unless you've seen someone do it first, but it's published in a book like you should just know. I hate that. I also frequently see quantities like "1 can" which just drives me insane as though that's a standard unit.

There's also plenty of cooking specific jargon, so densely packed that beginners might spend the majority of the recipe looking up what the terms mean. "Chop" parsley - how finely? "Mix the ingredients" how long? What the fuck is Golden Brown actually?

It only ever starts at 18% now

Magnetic field strength is proportional to current * number of turns.

Using a resistor should work but so should using 20gauge copper if the number of turns is the same.

What does it say?

Not only that, but EVs purchase price is also frequently subsidized substantially. If you paid "50k" for a car but the government paid 25k of it, and you later sell it for 25k... You might not be that mad

Humors a valid coping mechanism, but normally not when the victim is the butt of the joke. The post just leaves the same bad taste in my mouth as rape jokes.

Sorry to ruin anyone's fun but it just comes across as gross to me and generally shows a lack of empathy

 

Just a small lasercut project after too many people were hitting me with "uwu"

 

I'm waiting for some different bases to ship so I can give Gengar a spookier color

My latest shopping nightmare has been trying to find 12x12" or 4x4" photo frames that are already backlit or that I can easily backlight so I can put etched mirrors (or etched acrylic or glass) and have it look SUPER COOL. I feel sure that these things exist somewhere but trying to search the current web marketplaces (amazon, ali*, etc) is super frustrating.
