I build a lot of guitar effects, and that community is even worse when it comes to attachement to obsolete components. The discontinuation of J201 JFETs (in TO-92 through hole package at least) by Fairchild has caused a lot of upset. My per

No, but it raises the question of whether the lack of shielding causing this issue also causes the monitor to radiate excessive RF noise that may interfere with other devices. If it's sensitive to 2.4Ghz signals, there may be signals g

I have a 6x9cm medium format rangefinder, but it's kind of an apples to oranges comparison to digital cameras. A much more direct comparison would be between my Canon EOS 55 and something like an EOS 6D. But regardless, I have a decent

Photographers who still enjoy film do so for the same reason that a lot of guitarists still enjoy tube amplifiers: it's reproduction is less accurate, but it's inaccurate in an aesthetically pleasing way.

The factories in Rochester where they make the film never stopped making the film. Ektachrome took a 5 year break, sure, but they've been making Tri-X and Portra and Vision3 cinema film etc. the entire time. It might be technically a d

I'd build semi-custom vacuum tube guitar and bass amplifiers and effects. I've built a few for myself and it's fascinating and rewarding. I enjoy the technology, the theory, the process, and the finished product.

I've never had any issue with PC fan noise - I have a fish tank in the room where my desktop lives and the PC can't be heard over the sounds of the aquarium's filter and air pump, which sound quite pleasant to me.

You keep repeating this. It doesn't seem to make sense to me. I voted for Clinton, and I'm a registered Democrat who voted for Sanders in the primary. I'm not sure what we're being asked to take responsibility for here.

Carrying your phone in your pocket with the screen facing outwards seems like asking for a broken screen. I, and I suspect a great number of others, pocket my phone with the screen in towards my leg and the phone upside down. As soon as I p

When you put a nut on a machine screw it doesn't cease to be a machine screw, but it works and I do it frequently. However, the document accounts for this in section 3: "Because of basic design, it is possible to use certain types

Thanks! The sound quality of it depends mostly on the sample rate it is able to achieve, which is somewhere around 9.6khz if all it's doing is reading a sample and then outputting it to the DAC. At 6bit 9.6khz a guitar sounds surprisin

I wired my own custom board for it rather than using a commercial Arduino type board, but I built a guitar effects pedal that runs Arduino code to process a guitar signal using the built in ADC and a pretty basic passive DAC. It works grea

I have had heating issues on laptops in the past that were caused by a poor thermal interface between the CPU cooler and the CPU. Either the thermal interface material was insufficient, or just not there at all. I was able to solve it mysel

I think what Alupis was trying to say is that when Twitter screws over developers, they aren't actually successful at reaping the rewards. Twitter has basically been saying to developers, "if we can't make money off of the pl

In my limited understanding, this means that you can now pay twice as much as before to receive much less information than before. There must be a lab located outside the US (and with no US footprint or marketing) that will nonetheless prov

The experts in the field of squatting will tell you that skinny jeans are the wrong attire. You should be squatting in Adidas track pants. Flat caps are optional.

Not every dog can be rescued. There are some dogs that simply have a bad temperament and will never be completely safe. Temperament in dogs is a heritable trait, and selecting a dog from a conscientious breeder who has selected the parents

In some breeds you will still find breeders who, although they are breeding AKC registered dogs, are breeding for function rather than form. Retrievers are the obvious example - there are hunters who are using those dogs for their original

The sounds the drives produce are reminiscent of bowed strings, especially the one playing the bassline. It would be very cool to connect this to a midi controller and play it live.

Once you already have an Arduino (one with a DIP socketed AVR chip like an Uno), a great option is to just buy ATMEga 328 or similar ICs with the Arduino bootloader burned on them and build standalone circuits around those, which requires o

I got really lazy recently and uploaded a demo video of an amplifier I built without adjusting the audio level, and it made for a very quiet video. I wonder if it has been normalized for playback by youtube yet.
