Out of stock... I never had an ergonomic keyboard but, being left handed,
I loathe ergonomic mice. I think they exist but the basic symmetrical
three button mouse is all I need.

Jeff was weird, but everyone here liked him. Larry is just an idiot that
no one here likes. Unlike Jeff, if Larry stops posting, we won't be

But he has shown his laughable code, wherein he programs C in the same way

He's the kind of jerk that wears trendy GoreTex underwear and other
carcinogenic clothing and that pays a 15,000 percent markup on
bottled "Mountain Spring" water that is actually pumped from a sewer
in rural Indiana.

Coupled with his diet of "high end" fast food, it is more than likely
that his entire body could be classified as low level toxic waste.

It's funny that you should mention Ted. I was incarcerated for
a time at the same SuperMax. In fact, his cell, or cage actually,
was just down the hall.

They kept moving me around the federal system because I always managed
to start things on fire and do a lot of other damage.

I could not relate to Ted much, though. Even though we are both
mathematicians he was a specialist in combinatorics and I was a
topologist. We had nothing to discuss.

I was eventually released because my team of lawyers managed to
convince the judge that the search warrant was bogus. One day,
they just opened the doors and let me walk out free. They are
dumb bastards all.

Nah, I saw that PS in pic#6: the ramifications are that in addition to

Nah, "superb" stuff isn't present, as those breadboards with their

That circuit is quite innocuous compared to all of the switching power

for fire or damage.

Check any electronic supply house and you will find everything that can
duplicate the breadboard -- and everything is made within the "current

Not the point that 12v isn't particularly hazardous : the point was in
having good safety habits, because lab work isn't always going to be
just merely 12v at a few Amps.

FYI, even a +5v PSU can kick your ass when its got 500A behind it...and
if your procedural controls fail, its ample to kill you.

OMFG!

500 Amps is way beyond what even welding requires.

Aren't you aware that residential circuit breakers/fuses are designed
to trip/blow at a mere 15 Amps?

What a total phony dunce!

Those are not wooden perfboards, you supreme idiot. I just glued the
perfboard onto some wooden blocks that I had lying around. Their purpose
is to elevate the perfboard, and all of the soldered connections that
are located underneath. What you witness is a variable voltage, linear
power supply that can be adapted to any purpose (within its limits).

Again, please provide the name of the company that pays you so that
we may avoid that incompetent monstrosity.

15 Amps at 120 Volts, Genius. 1800 Watts.

How much does your system draw?

With 5V, and not accounting for losses in the conversion,
that would 360A, which would kick your butt.

A 5V power supply with that capacity could make a big spark and/or
melt some things, anyway.
