    @paco @revk try black in COM, (bottom right) red in VΩ┥┝ (top right) and then in resistance mode, join the probe leads together. Should read 0 or very close to 0. Lemme know if that's what happens!

          Ok #electronics nerds. I must be doing something wrong.

          (Edit: Narrator: he was doing something wrong. As usual. Probes plugged into the wrong holes on the multimeter!)

          If I put my multimeter on resistance (that’s what I have done, isn’t it?) and I touch the 2 probes together, I expect to see basically 0 resistance. But I see 12.59. Then I touch the probes to the 2 terminals of my thermistor. I get basically the same reading. That makes no sense to me.

          I mean, I think the thermistor has gone bad, but I also don’t understand whether I’m doing this right. Is this actually a common failure mode for thermistors or am I doing something dumb with my multimeter?

          Disregard my post, @revk had the same idea as I did.

          Can you post a photo showing where your leads are plugged into the multimeter?

              @paco @dashrb This is a lovely example of *** 4 MINUTES *** on the Fediverse.

              A random person asks a deeply technical question.

              4 minutes later they have working answer.

              The fucking fediverse rocks.

              OK, I am no linguist, it may be "The fediverse fucking rocks" - someone tells me which.

              Glad to be a part of it.

              I may go to the pub now...

                  @revk @paco @dashrb it depends if your emphasis is on the excellence of the fediverse (it fucking rocks) or how different it is from a previously mentioned thing (the fucking Fediverse and no other)

                    @FritzAdalis @revk @paco @dashrb I read “fucking Fediverse rocks” as being about one who is fucking rocks from the Fediverse.

                    While “Fediverse fucking rocks” is about the entire Fediverse have sex with rocks.
