Dad calls:
D: Hai, so, um, my pc's not booting up.
Me: So?
D: What do I do now?
M: You tried fixin' it?
D: That's why I'm calling you.
M: I'm 400km away from you. Does it do anything by pressing a power-on button?
D: No. But I touched it, it's really hot.
M: When was the last time you cleaned that shit up?
D: I have to clean it?
*PC is located at dusty environment at work. 5 years old and is being turned on 6 days a week*
Clean. Your. Pc.
Oh, and yeah, it overheated, burned the mbo, power suply, and cpu cooler stopped spinning.
It's like Satan threw a curse on a pc, and took a piss on it.
The best part? He's mad because I "never help him nor have time when he needs something to be fixed".
He can fix the PC in a pc shop that is across the street.
So, you doin' any better this week?6 -

Eletronics question.
Hey guys.
Question here.
How do I calculate the cost of a machine in power consumed?
Like, my 3D printer has a 40A power suply, how could I calculate to get a € value from it?
Thanks22 -
#eletrónics, #power suply
Hey guys, I have a question about power.
I converted a 400w power suply into a power suply for my projects.
With more than 10amps per wire can I use the 5 volts to power stuff like my phone or Will it burn?
Also it gives 5.3v is that a problem?3 -
Electronics question:
Potentiometers
Hey guys. I'm searching for potentiometer calculators but I have a problem...
Where do I get the R1 and R2 for a given pot?
I wanted to know what pot should I use to regulate 0-12V and 0-5V.
Also, can this potentiometer handle a 400w power supply current?:

I'm designing the box for my power supply and I want to regulate the voltage on one of the exits.9
