Counting to 1,000,000

Technically it does have an infinitly high ohms resistance, since the thing seems to be burnt trough somewhere in there, for whatever reason, but hence is just the exact reason why I need to get a new a one...

Technically it doesn't have to have infinitely high resistance, just higher than the device can measure.
But yea, I know how it works, just joking.

Well, if we're really getting into technical terms, I did say ohms resistance!

The meter itself can measure the resistance of ten human people standing in a circle, holding hands. Wich I know, because I've done that trick!

So, if the meter can't detect it, it simply means that the points aren't making contact with eachother anymore, and thus there's an infinetly high ohms resistance. Shure, you could pump a rediculously high current trough it such that it would arc over, or somehow become inductive, but that wouldn't be ohms resistance anymore...

And, yes I know that it's a joke! I just like taking them too far!

Can it actually detect that?
What was it?
With the holding hands I mean

Take 10 people and let them all stand in a circle, holding hands. Then break up the circle in one spot, and put the multimeter, on ohms resistance setting, between them, to complete the circle.

I kid you not. Provided you have a proper quality multimiter, the thing will actually pick up the signal, and calculate a resistance value, across then people put as resistors in serie...

I figure it probably has something to do with humans being just a little bit more conductive than you might think, given that they always have just a miniscule layer of moisture, with some salt in it, on top of their skin. But still, that's quite impressive...

Soo, yeah, for the meter to not pick it up, it really has to be burnt trough, and not just a really high resistance value that the meter doesn't pick up.

I think that, by the time a proper multimeter can't pick up the resistance value, you're not talking about ohms resistance anymore...

Ohaidere!

I have a habit of repeating the same song over and over again.

[Cheza]

159,882


I do that too.
Then I have specific songs/playlists/albums for stuff.


It's not real lasagna unless I listened through One Man Army or War Eternal while making it.
And it's gotten to the point that if I try to listen to either without making food, I get hungry.
Meh.

[Brisky]

159,883

Oh, hello there, y'all!

How are you doing?

[HellEye]

159,884

Hello!

I asked what was the specific number it showed when doing that though

[Cheza]

159,885


I'm playing MC.
Exciting and stuff.

I may hop on MC... but my repetitive moosics...

Currently just derping around off the server.




Also, speaking of music, I just realized MC currently has no sounds.
Already made me worry about my headset, but seems like those are fine and the game is just otherwise muted.
Strange.

@Hl

Woah...

When I just slightly grip it between my fingers, the meter hovers around 300 kilo ohms. (Soo, 300,000) But, what's funny, is that when I start really pinching into the probes, as hard as I can, the resistance actually goes down to about 0.80 kilo ohms.

When I really just slightly hold it between my fingers, it goes to about 1.2 mega ohms.

Hmmm, this is actually kinda interesting, almost... :i

But, yeah, I don't have the figures of when we did it with 10 people, unfortunately...



I could maybe pop up around the server aswell, if anyone's gonna be there...

Need a little something relaxing after playing TF2 in the evening, or I tend to have horribly bad rest, anyway...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm not really sure what to write here.
