Are there softwares to simulate enough electronics and microcontrollers to learn?
It depends on what you are looking for. For a quick simulation to get a very rough, and more ideal, visual, you can use something like Falstad. But for anything more practical and useful, I’d recommend using SPICE. There’s lot’s of software out there that implements SPICE [2]. KiCAD offers SPICE simulation [1].

I want to try learning microcontrollers afterwards but I can’t afford to buy any IRL atm
The perceived expensiveness of things is certainly relative, but I would still argue that the hardware for microcontrollers really doesn’t have to be that expensive [1][2][3][4].

Looks like a Fractal Node 304?
Yep! I’ve found that the case is possibly a little too cramped for my liking — I’m not overly fond of the placement of the drive bay hangars — but overall it’s been alright. It’s definitely a nice form factor.
- Comment on Post your setup. no matter how uggo 3 days ago:
It wasn’t a deliberate choice. It was simply hardware that I already had available at the time. I have had no performance issues of note as a result of the hardware’s age, so I’ve seen no reason to upgrade it just yet.

I don’t have any fundamental issue with emojis when they’re used to expand meaning or provide clarity. Eg you could use an emotive emoji to show/clarify the intent/emotion of something. Imo, using emojis in this way is no different than the practice of adding a “/s” to denote sarcasm. When they get annoying is when they’re used superfluously. If they serve no purpose, then it’s just clutter.

- Comment on Higgs Field 3 months ago:
The Higgs mechanism gives mass to elementary particles. That is not to say that the total of inertial mass of a non-elementary massive object is due to the Higgs.
- Comment on Higgs Field 3 months ago:
To make it as simple as possible
Too simple, imo. It simplifies to the point of becoming incorrect.
Higgs makes it hard to push something.
One is called inertial mass (what we feel due to the Higgs mechanism)
The Higgs mechanism has been found to give mass to elementary particles only (short of neutrinos) [3]. This is important to note, as the mass of hadrons is far larger than the sum of their constituent elementary particles [4]. The rest, and vast majority, is found in the bound energy (eg the Strong Interaction) of the elementary particles (eg quarks) [1][2].
Regarding “Inertial mass”, I want to note the following definition for clarity:
Inertial mass is a measure of an object’s resistance to acceleration when a force is applied. [5]

Higgs makes it hard to push something. Gravity makes it hard to lift something.
The Higgs interaction contributes to both. Mass due to the Higgs interaction is a component of inertial mass, given that the Higgs boson gives mass the elementary particles contained within [3]. Inertial mass is a measure of an objects inertia (ie its resistance to acceleration when a force is applied) [1][2].
Note that the concept of “lifting” only applies in a gravitational field when a force is able to be created by pushing off of a surface — the resistance to the “lift” being created by the objects weight. If one is in free-fall, for example, the effects of gravity are no longer apparent given that one has no reference to the fact that they are falling.

the other is called gravitational mass (what we feel due to gravitational attraction between two masses).
I’m not sure exactly what you are trying to say here, but I suspect you are perhaps referring to the following excerpt(s) from Wikipedia:
Active gravitational mass is a measure of the strength of an object’s gravitational flux [1]
Passive gravitational mass is a measure of the strength of an object’s interaction with a gravitational field. [1]
I’ve personally never heard the term “gravitational mass” before, but it could be found from the above two statements, or more succinctly stated:
Gravitational mass is the “m” in F = GmM/r2 (Newton’s law of universal gravitation) [2]

They are usually the same so the distinction is usually ignored.
This statement is rather dubious. Simply put, there has simply not been found any empirical difference between inertial mass and gravitational mass. [1]

- Comment on Higgs Field 3 months ago:
These terms get a little convoluted for me as my knowledge of them is far from well established. I don’t really want to get into what the actual “Higgs field” is, but, for the sake of the meme, the following excerpt from Wikipedia should suffice:
via the Higgs mechanism, [the Higgs boson] gives a rest mass to all massive elementary particles of the Standard Model, including the Higgs boson itself. [source]
- Comment on Higgs Field 3 months ago:
I was assuming that the image was confusing the term “weight” with “mass” (as both are equal on earth — give or take the variance in Earth’s gravitational field)). If weight was intended to be a separate term, then it’s just incorrect. Weight is the term given to the force that objects in a gravitational field impart on others when they are not accelerating (I mean not accelerating to mean the object is still with reference to the surface of the Earth) [1.1]. In SI, weight is measured in Newton’s [1.2] and mass is measured in kilograms [2].

- Comment on Higgs Field 3 months ago:
As far as my current understanding goes, the majority of mass derives from the binding energy between particles, and only a small amount is due to the higgs interaction.
