The continent hosted a war between gods that destroyed a continent, who knows how that affected the geography of the neighbouring lands.
The One Ring also didn’t have unlimited power. Gothmog, Sauron’s master, did something similar with his own spirit, except he was so powerful he used the entirety of Middle-Earth as his “ring” instead. It’s why the elves can’t stay on Middle-Earth without waning.
Edit: I just realised the question was recognising the name of the city, not recognising city based on a picture…
Probably Svolvær/Lofoten with a population of ~4700. It doesn’t have the official status of “City” in Norway though.
Edit: For those interested it’s Van Gogh - The Scream.
Is this some Swedish psyop meant to trigger Norwegians? The Scream was painted by Edvard Munch.
You also didn’t link to the actual painting.
One of a kind hobby project. I want to experiment with time of day controlled LEDs, and see how they work as a light based wake up alarm.
I’d rather not break the bank for needlessly overkill connectors, the total for the project so far is only ~220$, and I only sporadically work on it.
portability isn’t all that important, but the chassis the connectors would connect to should preferably be as small as possible. The PWM circuitry without connectors are ~8cmx3cm.
I wouldn’t mind using connectors with more pins. The primary challenge is just finding a connector with both male and female socket plugs that seems to easy to plug in and out, within specs.
The connectors needs to be gendered so that input and output can’t be mixed up by mistake.
Sorry, my original comment was poorly written. While they do lead to earth, there is a mosfet in between each that receives a unique PWM signal. See the edit for more details.
By soldering the ends of the LED, do you mean the 4 earth connections? I should probably have clarified that the 4 “earth” connections only lead to earth when the mosfets connected to the LED is open. Each connection leading to earth is for either, R, G, B or W so they can’t be soldered together.
I haven’t noticed any difference in brightness between the first and last LED. Since the power is sent via PWM controlled mosfets, splitting the power wouldn’t work all that well since it inevitably have to connect the box (with the connectors) with the PWM circuitry.
I don’t know how aging affects the LED power draw, according to the manufacturer I shouldn’t expect more than 7.5A. When measuring peak power output, I get only get ~6A total though.
4 pins are for earth with each (measured) having ~1.5A going through them at peak brightness. The fifth pin must bear the total load of the four other pins.
Having 5 pins is of course not a strict requirement, it’s just the LED strip that has 5 connections.
Edit: I should have clarified that the 4 pins “leading to earth” are connected to mosfets controlled by PWM signals, so they aren’t directly connected to earth. Each of the 4 pins carries a unique amount of current. Their total current is flowing through the fifth pin. Sorry for missing out on that detail in the original statement.
A few meters LED strips.
According to the spec sheet only 7.5A should be necessary with a recommended 25% margin for a total 9.4A for the power supply. I rounded up to 10 for simplicity, and that’s the spec of the power supply I have.
Measuring max current at peak brightness is only at ~6A though, so 10A isn’t strictly necessary.
IP rating isn’t necessary, it should all fit into a small box with some circuitry for PWM signaling used inside a normal room.
I get it. My parents/hometown is a days travel away so I only visit ~two times a year. It’s hard to stay in touch with all your old friends when you rarely see them. If you’re just an hour away it’s much easier to keep touch with your old circle.
Seems reasonable if you don’t move to another city
I’m sure Norway has a higher density of various dialects to the factors you mentioned, but Maghreb is vastly greater in size, so you’d think there would be more than 5 dialects. It’s fascinating if there aren’t.
I’ll never forget the first time I went on holiday to Greece and jumped into the water. Saltiest water I’ve ever felt, ended up just swimming in the pool instead. Much better water up here in the north, even if it’s a bit cold.
It’s a genuine concern though. If you want one centralised server hosting all the content, just use reddit.
That’s possible, but that doesn’t really answer my question which was if the dialect is the same/similar for each group internally on the map, or just a very rough generalisation. The map covers some incredible distances so it would surprise me if they managed to keep a consistent language across it all that space. Didn’t mean to dunk on the map if that’s how you interpreted it.
Those are surprisingly large zones, I would have thought it would be much more fractured. Is it just a rough generalisation, or would someone in Mauritania speak similar to someone in Algeria?
Even this map of Norway doesn’t really represent all the dialects in our tiny country.
but I don’t like the indentation crap
Do you not use indentation in other languages?
“EU’s largest national park is in South America” is a fun fact.
Copilot makes for a great autocomplete while programming. Saves me a ton of typing.
