/sqt/ stupid questions thread
Post your dumbass questions
Google it first.
Does it matter if a resistor's (or potentiometer's) wattage value is way over-rated for the task?
I'm building a simple passive volume mixer and I have two choices of potentiometer: one is rated for 0.2W and the other is rated for 12W. (Both are 10K ohm Stereo Logarithmic potentiometers.)
I was wondering if it being massively over rated in the wattage department would matter? Thanks.

First for Explorer 1
I need one, lads.
Does anyone own the Alpinist on a D3A7AB bracelet? Was wondering how they like it compared to other bracelets.
>>60496569
I like these explorers. Much more tastfull that the diver bezel ones. They still kind of suffer from being rather boring though.
damn it feels good to live in the future

As a Linux only user, I must admit that looks slick. If you can create a darker version of it, that would be even better. /s

The T60 is surprisingly decent as a main laptop in 2017, even without a RAM upgrade
So I AMD actually relevant again or is it still cheap knockoff shit for a teenagers first gaming pc?
>>60490474
R7 rekt Intel's HEDT CPUs
R5 rekt Intel's i5's
R3's and APUs aren't out yet but look pretty good
580 bested the 1060
460/560 is a good value too
Vega is pretty much the only sore point seeing as it should have been out months ago really
AMD has always been relevant for technological /g/urus, you retard. Take Jewtel shilling back to /v/.
>>60490474
AMD is the superior choice at this point in time for nearly every computational task. There are specific niche cases where an Intel will be faster, but not necessarily better depending on parameters requires.
Intel isn't even a premium product to buy with high heat, high power consumption, and blocked off access of features to artificially create product tiers. AKA milk even more money from consumers and industry alike.
