  • Those aren't really accents. In many Slavic languages, the declination of verbs is gender-specific in the past tense and conditionals. The form is -l for masculine and -la for feminine. You can pronounce it -lǝ (emphasize the schwa that comes at the end of -l) to be vague about it, use the -lo neutrum (dehumanizing), or, to also sound sassy, one of the plural forms -li (default), -ly (all female or neutral, pronounced the same as -li) or -la (all neutral). Yeah, no good gender-neutral options yet.

    It's nothing but mistakes

  • Piezo buzzers have a resonant frequency they're strongest at. Two-pin piezo disks need driving at the desired frequency. Usually only a GPIO pin (PWM-capable if possible) and a resistor is needed. Three-pin disks provide a phase-shifted feedback to the driving transistor to keep oscillating at the resonant frequency. Some include that whole circuit inside their housing so they have just 2 pins but those are for DC power, only the volume can be somewhat adjusted by changing the input voltage.

  • Which way is the rear? I tell that by the tag. (Yes, I add tags to clothing that doesn't have them, except socks)

  • With mods, it has been approved in the Czech Republic. Yes, our DOT is a joke and now even run by the Motorist party. A guy is offering to import one, apply the mods (front licence plate holder, amber rear blinkers, slight smoothing of edges) and get it registered.

  • Even to people who know nothing about EV charging, it should be obvious that a high voltage source will not use exposed pins like that.

  • They're not really enemies. It would be unprofitable for both if one destroyed the other for good.

  • It's a classic cartoonish exaggeration. Nobody has that nose shape either.

  • ML or LM?

  • Tracker? No, this is a copy of MATLAB '96 + Signal Processing Toolbox. It's a bit of a waste to use the N64'sGPU for a CLI though. The PS3 version that came out a few years later was better: you could connect a 1080p monitor and the GPU was tailor-made for scientific calculations, processing 200 MiB (most of its VRAM) of samples in seconds.

  • A Czech reporter's name is Jan Tuna. Please keep saying "tuna fish" for his sake.

    he/him, Jan is a common male name here derived from John, the female counterpart is Jana

  • When a public service gets privatized:

  • I'll be assuming the pole is not grounded (electrically isolated from Earth, the earth pin of sockets, radiators, plumbing etc.)

    The difference is not DC vs AC but between it being connected across two screws, for which a high current source (hundreds of amps at negligible voltage) will heat the metal up - as opposed to connecting a voltage (like 120V mains for AC or 170V single-diode-rectified & smoothed mains for DC) referenced to ground to the pole. The former will draw a lot of current from the source through the screws and metal between them, heating it up. A car battery could briefly deliver hundreds of amps and several kW, making them glow red hot. The latter will create a potential between the pole and ground, which will only draw current when a load is connected between the pole and the ground. For AC, a person's body's capacitance to ground, even with insulating shoes, is enough to feel a tingle. For AC or DC of sufficient voltage (above 60 V), they will get a shock if they touch ground and the pole, completing the circuit.
