11:36 katsmeow-afk 10GiB source file; indexing will require roughly 8GiB RAM. <<== that's what i fond too, the index can be as big as, or bigger, than the source file

19:59 katsmeow-afk CBS charges to download it from them
20:00 katsmeow-afk so twill be 2 hrs before i know it's new and uploaded
20:10 katsmeow-afk i know when they gave the actores a raise to $million per episode, they reduced the number of episodes this yr, and then decided to skip weeks to spread them out

20:50 rue_house gate is 16V
20:50 rue_house source is ground

20:51 rue_house gate is rated atleast 20V
20:51 katsmeow-afk see, if the output is shorted to gnd, and the switcher goes into foldback, before the gate canbe discharged....... what happens?
20:51 rue_house its reverse polarity
20:51 rue_house the P channel is on when the gate is low
20:51 rue_house the gate must be more than -2 from the source
20:52 rue_house ish
