      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?

      @paco
      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.

                    @paco @revk It's good you got to the bottom of this mystery. We've all made that same mistake before, more than once!
