It actually refers to his head. Like the one on his shoulders, not the the other kind... French likes to have the letter "s" silent and modifying how other letters are pronounced, mostly the "e". In modern French, the word for head is tête. Most words with ê now used to have es in them. Fête = feste = festival. Arrêt = Arrest, etc.
Depending on the machine, the BASIC could be awful. On a Commodore 64, there were no commands for sounds and graphics. You had to get elbow-deep into peeks and pokes. Might as well go to assembler in that case. The C128 had BASIC 7.0, which had a much improved set of commands for graphics and sound.
I think you're mistaking the back of his chair as being part of his torso. It's just a really skinny young guy with unkempt hair. I used to be skinny like that as well until middle age hit me like a freight train. Now I look like a freight train.
Another problem with your posts is that you often misuse simple technical terms, which suggests you are either completely ignorant or refuse to use the proper terminology. See, I think you meant SLIDER POTS when you said "linear" because you mentioned a musical instrument.
Also, when you say "older", are you implying that newer ones AREN'T soldered (not that they ever were?) Here's a look inside a slider pot:
You see any solder, micronuts? The graphite paste is printed right on the trace of the substrate. Right along with the impurities that let the manufacturer reach the desired resistance value.
Which incidentally for audio, is almost never LINEAR taper, but LOG or SEMI-LOG, which you would know if you had half the knowledge you claim to have.
The motion of the wiper might be linear, as in a straight line, but no one refers to the motion of the slider, no one calls regular pots CIRCULAR resistors, do they?
Another sad thing with your posts is that sometimes you would appear to have something to contribute, but it's buried in so much bullshit it doesn't show.
I strongly suspect you have a bad case of Asperger's. I recommend you read some books written by Asperger's people, like these:
Look me in the eye, by Robison Journal of best practices, by Finch
You might then realize how you sound to other people, and hopefully calm the fuck down. You'll realize that no one really gives a shit if you're a walking encyclopedia (of wrong information), and you'll see how you present yourself to others.
They were printed on the board copper after. There is no soldering. I don't know what "linear variable resistors from the '80s" have to do with anything, since they aren't soldered either, usually they're glued or crimped to. Much like pots are still today, or keypads, etc. You think those things used "pure" graphite? Then how, pray tell, did they get the different resistance values in the same package size?
Anyways, like I said, I've read your posts, and you seem like either a violent lunatic, or a serious case of Asperger's with absolutely no insight whatsoever.
"so far" and "are now working on", means that the article isn't showing that particular conductor, unless time travel is involved. Does no one fucking read anymore?
No one mentioned graphite, not in the article, not in the parent post. You can't solder to graphite. You use carbon-filled glue for that. Your posts read like the violent ravings of a lunatic.
In the link I provided it states ""Herp" is a vernacular term for reptiles and amphibians. It is derived from the old term "herpetile", with roots back to Linnaeus' classification of animals"

Here in Quebec we have several "dynasties" of rich people who got tons of money from their parents. Like Pierre Karl Peladeau. The guy's a billionaire but does sweet fuck all with his money as far as I can tell. At least Elon is doing something with his money. I have no idea why his electric car brings up so much animosity with people though. The point is that here in Quebec we have surplus electricity, we have universities, we have electrical engineers, we have research into electric cars.
And we did fuck all with it. I wish we had one Quebecker with the vision of an Elon Musk. All we have is Guy Laliberte putting on a clown nose in space, and Pierre Karl going "full loon" in political mode. What a waste.

Just dig around in there.

That wasn't as cool as you thought it would be...

You're completely bonkers, Khyber.

Yeah, and what's your MOQ for that price?
The open architecture of the IBM PC was what made it a success. Virtually everything else was more closed.
Say what? Every micro of the era came with schematics!
eBay?
"3D printers are at the same stage laser printers were at around 1995"
You mean a decades-old well-established mature technology with a clear use scenario? I still have my HP 5L from 1996.

Uh, fine, you can still contribute to FOSS by working on less futile things.
if it were applied to actually useful things? We'd have the green leisure society figured out for the entire planet.
Too bad you don't get the "fixed that for ya" meme. And in what universe is "too spell" correct?
>I know what you mean. It drives me nut's. It's defiantly not that hard too spell.
Fixed that for ya.
Why do people have such a hard time spelling "definitely"? Is it that hard?
That's the kind of guts you don't see in Quebec. All a bunch of pussy crybabies here.
Seriously. Just put .LOG on the first line of the file and every time you open it Notepad puts the date and time.
