Nope, you are right, I was not familiar with the resistance of the human body and I was wrong.

Hahaha. Ok, I thought you were a young child because you spelled battery differently and your take on everything I said the first time seemed childish. I told you not to touch a car battery because I thought you were a child. I still wouldn’t personally touch it, but that’s not what’s funny. You are NOT an electrical engineer. YOU ARE A STUDENT, lmao, I thought you might be a child and I wasn’t far off.
Your German, correct? I fixed aircraft in Germany, and you are only a student. Ever work on 115 VAC @ 400Hz 3 Phase? Ever work on C-130 avionic systems? What about B-1’s?
There is actually a lot of stuff I miss about Germany, too. Döner Kabob… God I miss those, they were my favorite. Oh and the German ice cream. Also the beer… I miss a good Dunkel. Keep studying you’ll be an electrical engineer soon.

Do yourself a favor, don’t ever touch a car battery. It will hurt and you will feel it. They show that in movies as torture for a reason. It’s not the voltage in this case, it’s the current. Those batteries are capable of 550 CCA (cold cranking amps). Warm that battery is 685 CA. In fact I think I would consider the car battery more dangerous.

In alternating current the electrons move back and forth across the material similar to a wave striking the shore of a tropical beach… No one said anything about reflecting. Have you never been shocked by an outlet? Shoot, I grew up in a trailer with a short on the front door. If you touched the metal, it wouldn’t even hurt, but you’d certainly know.

Theoretically, the building is ground and you only need to connect one cable.
- Comment on Home renovations 2 weeks ago:
Disagree. DC current will seek the path of least resistance, and will not go down the pole.
I’m unsure if this is an apartment, but I would start by reaching out to the landlord and say your lights have been acting up whenever they are using it. Maybe say your electric bill has been higher, maybe stage that a little bit by simply leaving a light on for a month. Have them inspect the floor damage too.
Once they leave, I would install cannibalize a power cable, plug it into the wall and hook the hot wire up to one of the screws.
The benefit of using AC, is that it is less likely to take the path of least resistance and travels as waves back and forth, doesn’t necessarily matter if they are grounded or not, they will feel it, likely marginally lower since it is also going into everything their 8ft pole is touching.
…I don’t know why I’m on a villain arc this morning.

Love it. I love that you went to Lemmy for tips. A side note, while I love it, I’m curious to see what it would look like with a bushy unibrow now that you’ve added the bushier mustache.

- Comment on How to decide what kind of controller one should purchase? 1 year ago:
That is a totally fair question and one that I simply overlooked. Technically you can buy Gulikit through Amazon. I personally appreciate that the cost of it doesn’t go up over like a regular controller. Scuf did me dirty, I had a scuf for all of two months before the lb button fell apart and they refused to repair it. That thing cost me $185. This controller cost me $70.90 and has lasted me about two years. Here is a link to the Gulikit store on Amazon. I do recommend making sure it is from that store. I don’t know anything about it, but there is a AKNES store which sells gulikt controllers. amazon.com/…/BCC8C06B-7BF5-4D6C-A9A0-6290B8091F02…

For PC, I would personally suggest looking for a controller with two things. Number 1, Hall effect sensors. Eliminate stick drift entirely with that alone. Number 2, replaceable joysticks. If the sticks last a long time, then the controller is expected to last longer. I just think having a way to replace work rubber is a good thing. Personally, I have loved Gulikit. My controller also happens to work on switch as well. Here is a link of you are interested in checking it out.
