  It does feel like some teachers are a bit unimaginative in their method of assessment. If you have to write multiple opinion pieces, essays or portfolios every single week it becomes difficult not to reach for a chatbot. I don’t agree with your last point on indoctrination, but that is something that I would like to see changed.

  You could try that yeah, start at the AC input and try to find where the circuit fails. If you want to do that though I’d recommend that you take 2 good pictures of the front and the back, put them side to side and sketch out the circuit diagram. It’s no use trying to measure voltage nodes if you don’t know what they are supposed to be. Question is if that is worth your time, there is certainly some educational value but there is always a chance that you just won’t find the fault.

  If you do make a schematic then react to my post. I’ll try to help you with reading the circuit if you want.

  It depends on the definition I guess. I would consider driving a car to be multitasking. But doing three different office tasks on my laptop feels more like context switching as someone dubbed it here.

  I’ve just become a CAD hobo or squater you could say. There will always be one ““free”” piece of cad software that caters to the casual 3D printer and I’ve just accepted that they will inevitably raise the price and I’ll just have to jump ship again. But, at least I get to keep all the knowledge and that is what counts.

  I used to do a ton with Processing and P5. This guy www.youtube.com/@TheCodingTrain did wonders for my skill and enjoyment a few years ago. I owe him a lot

  I agree with the whole discussion thing so let’s engage. I don’t really think that we have a higher quality userbase than reddit honestly. You have to be a little more tech inclined to even find your way here. I feel like it’s the same thing that happens when you go to university where you will meet a lot of people who just have to be a certain way to even find their way there. I think that lemmy is just way more like minded than a place like reddit. I won’t drone on because I think you get it. So if you want to call that ‘higher quality’ then I agree. Discussion for the point of discussion I suppose

  Yeah I agree. Although decentralized servers also cost money so I make sure to pay the admins. I don’t mind paying for things that I use, but I just don’t think Youtube premium is a good deal :(

  Laser holography, it costs so fucking much :( :( :(
