It's completely crazy that being for the working class and poor and making that your political identity seems to be viewed as a radical position.

The worst part about this is how caustic American politics has become. We are being propogandized to want to murder each other over stuff that can be solved by earnest dialogue and good faith cooperation. I'm trying to stay optimistic in thinking most people would be willing to do that if we...

Man, I want to unload on this but I don't want to be the one that turns this into a shitshow. I'll just say that even seemingly brilliant people can make bad choices for themselves.

I do like the Merman and it's a unique take on the Klon. But, I'll be the first to agree that VFE are generally not easy builds, and I've built probably 40 of them, haha. Some are much easier than others, though.

You should visit my home page since it hasn't changed in the last 7 years. I'm a veteran and I can see forever.

Sorry, I only engage in Psychic Wars.

Oh FFS. Pardon me, I'm going to go scream into a pillow.

I'm loyal too due to the convenience, quality and price. I'd happily give that business to an American manufacturer if they could compete, but they simply can't. I don't expect this trade war crap to change that one bit because there is no plan at all to protect and preserve small businesses...

I think this is my plan at this point. The de minimis is surely gone maybe forever but the current tariff rate is not going to last. We're just a couple months from empty shelves.

Rumor mill is saying there will be some scaling back on the 145% soon. BigBox CEOs are giving the admin a riot act.

I took my last delivery today before the tariff bomb goes off. Wait...wtf? Legume Liaison I only just noticed this, LOL.

DHL is suspending delivery of packages over $800. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1jx9ep5l63o.amp

The B is mid-gain, it appears. That tracks with other NPN that use A,B and C suffix. https://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=40871.0

I use it for soldering resistor/cap sockets and toggle switches in place. But, I remove it after soldering one joint. That's usually plenty enough to hold a part in place while soldering the remaining contacts.

It isn't. Unless I'm in the PedalPCB multiverse.

Yeah, it turns out the 125% is on top of the existing 20%, I guess. Join tomorrow for another edition of dipshit bingo. I'm getting in a last minute order tomorrow to avoid the May 2nd tarriff bomb.

Now it's 125%...

So good news/bad news. Good news is that (after replacing the chips I took off this build and doing a quick recalibrate) is that I've got no detectable clock noise at the delay output (after the compander) as was demonstrated in the sound clip earlier in the thread. So, this may come down to a...

Yeah, I tend to agree. It doesn't have to have to get unnecessarily political other than maybe recognizing that this is a deliberate act of sabotage on the world economy (IMHO, anyway). It's not even unpredictable market forces. It's insidious. If that's going too far then I'll keep my mouth...
