<bofh> SnoopJeDi: ^
* UmbralRaptor is now very confused -- all the relevant chargers say 100-240 V, and 50-60 Hz, despite having US style prongs.
<iximeow> bofh: that's a good gem - "spellcheck" is the next logical extension of computer languages after "typecheck"
<iximeow> personally i would expect "spellcheck" to have come before "typecheck" but hey
<bofh> UmbralRaptor: so you use a prong changer on them to plug them into UK/EU/Asia/etc power outlets.
<UmbralRaptor> Yeah
<bofh> They're switching PSUs, they rectify then step-up to high-freq AC anyway, you can run those off 100-240V DC even.
<SnoopJeDi> bofh, accessibility [of eldritch planes] is important in computing
<SnoopJeDi> "okay, cool app, but what if your user only speaks the terrible language of eternal yearning"

<UmbralRaptor> …is it bad to look at https://twitter.com/whitequark/status/1011475155628019712 and get momentarily confused because whitequark means 180 as hot, but 180 K is almost cold enough for superconductivity?
<kmath> <whitequark> @FioraAeterna amused at the amount of people answering "sugar" to this ⏎ i mean, i thought about this too, and looked… https://t.co/K9v7AEkdg4
* SnoopJeDi sniffs
<bofh> UmbralRaptor: ehh, no, 180K is still by my standards hot.
<SnoopJeDi> it's within punching distance of Tc for H2S, but still hot by the standards of, say, BSCCO
<bofh> Yep.
* UmbralRaptor is probably a bit fuzzy on cooling between ~250-255 K, and 70-90 K. >_>;;
<bofh> anything > ~100K is what I'd consider a bit warm
<bofh> 77-90 is balmy however
<kmath> <bofh453> > implying I'm not already just a chunk of YBCO that gained sentience. https://t.co/ynrcgH7ych
<SnoopJeDi> yea ~70 K is "wow, that's surprisingly comfortable"
<SnoopJeDi> at least by accelerator cryo systems standards
<SnoopJeDi> mostly people are just happy not to spend extra $$/effort on a much more finicky cryo system >_>
<SnoopJeDi> one of the first completed LCLS-II cryomodules just had to be sent back for a disassembly :|
<SnoopJeDi> cryo at RF-usefuls levels (~2 K) is *really* hard
<SnoopJeDi> at least as part of a closed-loop system where you're not pissing away your LHe and planning to use it for years
<SnoopJeDi> (which is part of why FCC's scale makes LHC look unambitious)
<bofh> yeeeeeeeeeeeeep I am *so* glad I don't need to work at LHe or lower temps often.
