00:49:48 <Kuschelpony> interested in an interesting observation about IGBT linear mode?
00:50:11 <rust_collector> sure
00:51:00 <Kuschelpony> IGW40N65F5 datasheet at https://www.pollin.de/media/b8/5e/e4/1701701236/D131155-D.pdf?ts=1720749934
00:51:52 <Kuschelpony> page 7 has a quite impressive DC FBSOA, with the footnote of "Recommanded use at VGE >7,5V"
00:52:54 <Kuschelpony> page 8 has a DC transfer characteristic, where 7,5V VGE is the crossover from negative to positive temperature coefficient
00:53:22 <Kuschelpony> they have obviously really tested for spirito effect
00:55:17 <Kuschelpony> i have a temptation to buy some and do my own SOA testing
01:26:06 <electrohead> speaking of interesting things, just got off the phone with mouser. y'all will get a kick out of this
01:26:08 <electrohead> Dear <insert full name here>,
01:26:10 <electrohead> Due to restrictions imposed by the manufacturer, we are unable to ship the following products to your location. The following products are cancelled. If any other products remain on your order, they will be shipped when available.
01:55:09 <K> aren't you like in USA ?
01:55:15 <K> what restrictions
01:55:51 <K> also - what did you order?
02:02:01 <arch> giant tentacle pleasure device

02:09:02 <electrohead> Just this one got denied
02:09:04 <electrohead> lol
02:09:13 <electrohead> and yeah, I'm in north carolina
02:09:20 <electrohead> I called them and talked to someone
02:09:34 <electrohead> it's not about location apparently, it's just "restricted"
02:10:10 <electrohead> asked her why and what's the reason, and now I'm forwarded off to other people just for an answer
02:16:08 <rc-garage> tell them you work for the president of the universe
02:16:47 <rc-garage> oh, I think they delivered my vibrator...
02:18:28 <rc-garage> nice plain box. that is nice of them
02:18:36 <arch> mouser can eat a bag of stinky socks. those bastards wanted too much info for me to be able to place an order for a bluetooth dmm transmitter
02:33:27 <electrohead> they still have my old phone number, and I use a virtual card when paying (via privacy.com, super nice)
02:33:49 <electrohead> ordered from digikey, hopefully this goes through
02:40:38 <K> arch, i have picked up "eat a bag of dicks" from some uk associates, and use it frequently
02:42:05 <rc-garage> someone used "a bowl of hot dicks" I wonder if it was ice-t.
02:43:33 <K> bowl of stinky socks
02:43:38 <K> why not.
02:47:05 <arch> mmmm... stinky socks

08:33:06 <MrMobodies> No longer available in United Kingdom
08:33:54 <MrMobodies> They don't seem to say why but I think it has something to do with that "Online Safety Bill" they passed a month ago.
08:34:28 <MrMobodies> Police state Britain as someone told me early this year.
