Thanks, I'll have a look. It's an universal mains power supply with no voltage switch.
How were you measuring the current in the power cable? Is this with a Kill-o-watt device or perhaps with a clamp meter and a line splitter?
For the current both with a line-splitter+clamp and checked with an in-line meter. For the power factor, since I don't have any actual instrument to measure It, and I just needed a ball-park figure to discern actual consumption from a capacitor, I used this diy method: https://www.giangrandi.org/electronics/cosphi/cosphi.shtml , which measured 0.04 ( with great approximation ).
As for why there is a capacitor across the mains input [...]
I have the basic on how a switching power supply work, but I was asking because it seemed weird to me that commercial appliances didn't take any stand-by meaures to avoid "keeping the wires warm"... is this the norm?
Bought a new PC, and I was measuring its consumption out of curiosity. I noticed something weird (to me): when the PC is off (in fact, I completely disconnected the PSU and did the same test), there is quite some current running in the power cable to the PSU (0.15A).
Further measures showed a power factor of (almost) zero, and I can actually measure a capacity of 2uF across the PSU ac input.
I did the same thing on an older PC I have, and there is no current / capacity. So what would the reason of a capacitor across the mains on the input be in a PSU?
PS: the PSU is a Thermaltake Toughpower GF A3 1050W
Edit: I found some official measurements for this specific PSU: https://www.cybenetics.com/evaluations/psus/2249/ that have 40W standby apparent-power by design
Which bridge do you use? do you self-host it?
Exactly, even when applied correctly, many projects will just not work with scrum. Managers that sponsor ONE approach have already failed....
The point is just differentiating your behavior between what you call a "bad" or a "good" junior.
And from experience the difference is whether they want to learn (regardless of their skill!!) or not (i.e are they passionate or it's just a job?).
Passionate seniors get frustrated when they try to teach bad juniors, but there is no point on doing that, the problem was just that the senior was not involved in the hiring process...
I get what you mean, I think in a realistic scenario this only work to circumvent some laws. if you are tortured by someone who know about this and don't care about your life, then it's meaningless.
In effetti se anche una singola istituzione italiana iniziasse ad usarlo, sarebbe una bella pubblicita'
Does not "help protecting privacy", that is marketing. It's a system for ads that track you in a more privacy-friendly way then other alternatives.
Peoples are mostly angry at the fact that they just silently slipped this system in without asking for consent.
you’d almost certainly notice the change in gravity.
Really? can you actually percieve the sun gravity? Do you mean that we would get like a tsunami beause of the tidal effect? Now I kinda want a documentary about this.
I'm currently on a TLK, and mostly because I want to learn to stop moving my hands away from the home row. It's not even only about arrows, but also home/end page up/down etc. and combinations with them which I use a lot and it just get slow and weird since I have to reposition my hands every time... mine is currently quite limited in what I can program it to do unfortunately.
QMK looks good, also because I'm familiar with C. I'll probably go with a prebuild to start out since I'm mainly interested in customizing the setup for now, thanks!
Hi! I'm relatively new to mechanical keyboards and I need some help.
I need a 60% that will allow to toggle between two mode, one for writing and one for cursor movement with arrows (possibly on IJKL).
From what I found most of the 60% use the Fn button for arrows, but you have to keep it pressed, which will not work for me... I need to actually toggle the alternative layout. Some 60% have a "Fn lock" to support this, but it's hard to tell by just looking at their specs...
Do you know any model with a similar feature?
Lo uso anche io! Funziona bene sia su desktop che android, anche se per Invidious è un brutto periodo, causa nuove contromisure di google...
Dovrei documentarmi su questa cosa in effetti, al momento sto usando Librewolf (finche' dura) che per fortuna l'ha gia' disattivato sulla (s)fiducia con questa pull request 😉
Ma infatti non dico che non abbia ragione, ma che usarlo come scusa in quel contesto è un po' imbarazzante...
A livello di comunicazione, a mio parere, non è una bellissima mossa.
ahah non c'e' dubbio, soprattutto il punto 3 se lo poteva risparmiare. Però dai, in linea di massima sono d'accordo con il punto 1... l'importante è che mantengano sicure le comunicazioni end-to-end
Non lo so, su questa questione sono in parte d'accordo con Signal...proteggerre dati locali su una macchina compromessa è impossibile... chiaramente rendere il rubare i messaggi "banale" non è mai una buona idea, ma qualsiasi cosa facciano ( compresa l'ultima proposta) è facilmente aggirabile da codice malevolo...
In Italy it's required by your contract, but you no longer need HR fortunately, there's a dedicated website, and yes employer notice MUST be the same as the employee one...
I'll add something which is not mentioned: Unreal Engine, one of the most popular game engines, is source available, but not open source. Many games modify it but its then impossible to release those sources. I'm guessing that it's the same with many other engines...
