I've been away, but I skim lemmy every now and then. I noticed the uptick in start trek shit posts. I actually really like them. I don't really watch the show, but my friends are fans so I get some of the jokes. I even went to a con with my brother in law for his birthday. Besides something about Picards flute I had no clue what was happening, but the excitement was infectious.

I've been on the fringe of a few communities for quite some time, so I know how it feels to be constantly looking for a place you fit in. I'm glad you found yours op. Not going to say the thing, but all the best.

I feel like we should probably alert the academic community about this. You may have something here.

Oh wow, it's been awhile. They had a child? I'm so happy for them!

We all need a former lord of the underworld by our side. Nibbles just doesn't want to admit he loves the cuddles.

Nothing can justify this.

Edit: You guys aren't getting this, so I'll explain it. This was senseless murder. Period. This wasn't some he said she said left versus right bullshit. Go ahead and say "actually" and go fuck yourself. I'm tired of this ridiculous nerd baiting bullshit. You're not funny. You're not witty. You're not scoring points. Life isn't reducible to the whims of some shitty sorting hat that rewards you points because you're not a cunt. This was senseless murder and should be treated as such without stupid fucking dry sarcasm.

I'm guessing snakey boy is copper clad aluminum though.

It's an x2 capacitor to supress emi. He eventually linked it to me down below as well.

Oh lord, I thought op meant beeper as in the radio device. I'm an idiot.

Here's what those buzzers can sometimes look like:

They just make sound to indicate the state of things when used as part of a circuit. Like your kettle being finished boiling water.
