Isn't that the one thing that bottlenecks N64 most? :D

Can’t believe Jane Austen wrote Pride and Prejudice in the 2000s
And in 2015 Emily Brontë released literary clsssic Wuthering Heights
Thank God someone paved the way for them…

hold on it sux. i figured out a remix of this circuit that makes it better, more stable, opens up even higher frequencies and costs almost the same. coming soon
I made a VCO that covers <0.03Hz through >13KHz out of crap and sticks!
6 generic op-amps, 3 generic transistors, 3 generic diodes, 1 capacitor and 20 resistors - and you, too, can have one TODAY, since my article on Ultra-Widerange Micro VCO is now out!
It's not a very precise VCO - it tracks exponentially and CV inputs can be tuned to track 1V/Oct over 2-3 octaves, but not more than that. But it requires no fancy or obsolete parts like a VCO chip or an OTA - just the most bread-n-butter parts ever. It's also a simple circuit and an easy build. If you were meaning to build an oscillator that is something more than an atari punk console, but all designs online are too complicated and have uncommon parts, this design just might be suitable for you!
Here's a basic sweep:
And here's some gross noise it and another VCO make in tandem!
As always, all the info, including schematics, circuit notes, more sound demos and module photos, veroboard layouts, etc, are in the article on my site. I'll drop the schem here, though, because for once i really like how it looks, despite in fact being a kinda hacky design.
(i actually think the only reason it doesn't heat up is because TL07x are too slow for that to happen lmfao)

More dudes rock moments like this, please - very nice.
On a more "general case" note, i always said it's beneficial for cis ppl to listen to us trans ppl and pay a bit of even mundane passerby attention to what we say and feel, because suddenly they may find themselves more comfortable in their own body as well.
Other example off the top of my head - that one cis woman who learned about transfems and cried and felt better because she grew up in a hyper conservative situation & never thought being a woman is something one could even want or not be ashamed of.

As a teen back home (more east than the EU) i remember seeing in some american cartoon, i think south park? that the two basic skiing leg positions were called pizza and french fries. The fuck? We call them plow and parallel... i thought most places had something similar
remember when teachers would tell you to fold paper hamburger or hotdog style. kind of sounds like some fake shit but just another example of burger centric american thinking

i was singing buddy holly in meows to myself as i was tracing a pcb right now and i did such a tiny meow for the last four notes that finish the main lead (you know the ones) it was. tinier than those kitten videos
coincidentially i noticed at the work canteen today that my voice was a bit higher than usual without me even trying
#rumors are#micro-meowing voice trains you upwards#kinda sorta#that would explain a lot tbh#anyways#i proceeded to laugh my ass off#at the micromeow i emitted#in my usual heavy tf2 laughter#so versatile
