Nice XD

At the volume I have my games and music, I rather doubt it. :-/

No, really. It is very common for individuals on the autistic spectrum to have above average acuity of high frequency sound.

They were in his cereal.

Unless you’re autistic. We don’t lose the top end of our hearing for some reason. Those “mosquito” devices can trigger my migraines, at 43 years old.

“Coil whine”.

The inductors used in the power regulation circuitry physically vibrate due to the electromotive force the part relies on to function. Changes in the load on the power supply changes the characteristics of the vibration, allowing audible detection of the variation.

The physical vibration slightly alters the electrical characteristics too, which is why inductors are glued down or “potted” in some equipment to try and negate this effect.

Edit: The inductors on your graphics card can whine too. This generates noise on the ground line of the whole PC which is then amplified by cheap sound devices, which is why you can literally hear the mouse moving on the screen on some PCs.

Ah, the “Mosquito” device.

I have strong feelings on those things. Strong enough to drill holes in one while up a ladder wearing a visi-vest.

Side note: It’s amazing how invisible you become while wearing a high-vis vest and a hard hat.

Another one!

It’s a common autistic trait, FYI 💛

I can still hear the bats pinging for insects round the back gardens. I was 43 last week :-p

Diagnosed autistic?

It’s very common for us 'spergs to have a very high frequency cut off on our hearing, all the way to old age.

I’m 43 and can still hear the bats chirping when they’re hunting insects in the twilight round the gardens. People think I’m making it up, until I point the bats out, tracking them by sound until they flutter high enough to see their silhouette against the sky.

CRT TVs and monitors used to annoy the hell out of me. The high pitched whine of the flyback transformer that runs the motion of the electron beam makes a very distinctive hiss. Like someone else on here, I could tell what refresh rate your monitor was running in by the noise it made.

That, plus an abnormally high flicker fusion frequency meant I had migraines every other day when I was working. :-/

See, it was plausible until the price of oil started falling. Oil is one of the few things propping up Russia’s economy. If oil keeps falling, Russia is even more screwed than it is now.

It would appear that he’s just a brat who’s never been told no in his life, grown so far as to be going senile. It’s all ego. Every single stupid thing he does is because he thinks he’s right. He is the literal embodiment of the dunning-krueger effect, fed by a bubble of yes-men hoping for crumbs from the table.

Oh no. Anyway…

Someone needs to create plugins not to block data being sent, but to send inordinate amounts of trash data.

Make the whole system pointless.

“I’m too smart to deal with the likes of you.”

Riding that dunning-krueger curve like a pro fucking surfer.

“Lugenpresse”

Uh huh. Fucking Nazi.

Then “most people” need to drag their thoughts further afield than their own tiny selfish little world.

Ignorance is not innocence.

It just takes a bit of training and practice is all, it’s really not that hard.

Get a solid radio like a Radiomaster Boxer (or Pocket, if you’re broke AF) and a copy of Velocidrone. The radio plugs into your PC like a joypad, and you can crash as many simulated drones as you need to get the hang of it 💛

Truth.

I have a little 3.5" diameter propeller freestyle drone that runs on 4s LiPos.

It does 124mph and will pull 40G turns. It’s like being strapped to the front of a missile. More fun and orders of magnitude cheaper than civil aviation, that’s for sure. 😁

I know of a discord for helping people with FPV stuff, alas most forums are dead these days.

I know we hate on discord round these parts, but it’s the best I’ve got 💛
