I love that the transcription has the correct labels for those of us who aren’t sparkies.
Not sure that this transcription is useful for person with vision disabilities unfortunately, would need some description of the symbols I think
That is a cool diode.
Wow, if all xkcd comics could have transcripts like this one, my uninformed ass might actually get half the jokes. :D
Check out explain xkcd then
It’s been a while since I had electronics in Uni but this seems accurate.
Don’t worry, someone will eventually come and tell you that it isn’t.
I’m getting the urge to listen to Metallica
This is hilarious.
I’m sorry but the symbol labelled as a wave pool is not an oscillator, it’s an AC voltage source.
Isn’t AC an oscillated DC?
