Well, it looks like a plugpack, thus low cost is the norm.
Nothing wrong with that - if it passes Hi-Pot, then all should be alright.  :-+

Oh, the "whys" of the datasheets... The information is there not to be an axiomatic truth, but instead each speck of data must be slowly inhaled while carefully performing a deep search inside oneself to find the true metaphysical sense...

'Electronic' (other!) Jokes!!
« Reply #181 on: December 27, 2020, 12:41:57 pm »
Ok, I expect it to be mostly in the 'other' category, but hopefully not crapped on too early!!   ;D
So here's an actual 'electronic' one, to validate the post...


Understandably, different jokes are understood/received differently around the World, due to local politics or regional
understanding etc. There was a world wide competition years ago, to find the 'joke' that the most countries understood,
and thought that it was funny!  The WINNER was actually this...

A man rang his emergency number and said... "Help!  I think my friend is dead!!"
The operator said... "OK, first we need to make sure he is dead..."
The man said.. "Hang on..", and a few secs later the Operator heard a gun-shot in the background...
The man came back on line, and said... "OK... now what!!"
TRUE xoxox

Here in Australia, we have a lot of... 'someone' walks into a bar  jokes...

A Dung Beetle walks into a Bar... and says... "Is this Stool taken?"
A horse walks into a Bar... the barman says...  "So, why the long face!"
 :palm:
Diagonal of 1x1 square = Root-2. Ok.
Diagonal of 1x1x1 cube = Root-3 !!!  Beautiful !!

A man walks into a bar. Turns out it was a gay bar. The man says, Christ! I'm in the wrong joke!

A priest, a rabbi and an imam walk into a bar.

The bartender says, "What is this, some kind of joke?"

ST Leaked internal document shows the process of laying out pins. It's the only reasonable explanation for having 3 pins of a 3 pin programming interface on 3 sides of a TQFP package.

Possibly NSFW,



(Hey, I just wrote the link, it's literally not my fault it's embedded for all to see.  Actually, I don't even know how to avoid it doing that...)

I don't like that auto-embed for Imgur, if you write it as a link then I think it should stay a link.

It's not very accessible.  Nothing appears whatsoever if you have javascript disabled.  I had to enable 3rd party scripts to see the image. 

It's also a bit of a weird privacy tradeoff just to see the single <img> tag.  From a quick check in my browser debugger: about 72k of javascript, HTML and CSS get loaded from imgur.com; but it also loads a pile of other social and facebook stuff ontop of that.

If you are concerned about tracking on the Internet, you should be taking active steps to protect your privacy, such as:
You can't rely on the contents of sites to be benign.

Here's a video meme (with complimentary Google tracking) to help get the taste out of your mouth.

Devices with built-in USB-to-serial adapters be like...



Yep just bought a cheap programable PSU today and plugging it into USB guess what it shown up as.... COM3

More like COM84 on my machine.

Which is a Good Thing.

Same thing to me. My signal processing theory professor was asked by some students what they could bring with them at the exams. His answer: Anything that you can drag in by yourself. 70% failed.

It may be a myth, but didn't a student bring Richard Feynman into one of his exams, because he fit (stood) on a single sheet of A4 paper?  (You can bring anything in that fits on a single sheet of A4.)

The version I heard was closer to basinstreetdesign's.  Professor: "This will be an open-book test." CalTech freshman: "Can I use Feynman?"  Professor, assuming the student is referring to the well-known lecture volumes: "Sure, why not."
