resistors should only have 4 color bands. 5-band resistors are cursed please unexist them thank you

we have a solution for needing 3sf resistor values!!!! putting multiple in series!!!!!!

@mynotaurus i will continue adding color bands to your resistors until morale improves.

@username9431 @mynotaurus hehe i got to teach her about zero ohm resistors the other week on a stream and boy was she displeased dragnsarc

@mynotaurus *hands you a small inductor*

Behold!, za most cursed one

@dragonminded @username9431 they suck!!! just build better circuits!!! dont just patch them afterwards with resistors hssss

@mynotaurus @username9431 oh creature, living in pure theory, blissfully ignorant to the constraints of the real world. bless your gay little rat soul.

@dragonminded as long as i dont have to work out the value of the resistor its all good. make your 123.465Ω ±1% resistors all you like

@dragonminded @username9431 i will concede the smd zero-ohm resistors make sense somewhat. i accept they have uses. but i refuse to accept the existence of through-hole ones, thats just a wire >:(

@mynotaurus you are learning why i standardized on 1K and 10K (and a few 0.1K) resistors for the MiniDragon, despite the fact that some things would be faster/more correct/less power hungry with different choices

@mynotaurus @username9431 i explained this to you creature! pick and place machines for through-hole exist too, but retooling for jumper wires would be expensive compared to just using the resistor form factor for jumpers and specifying 0 ohms!

@mynotaurus @username9431 but it has only one baaaaaaand! it meets your criteria for simpler bands, creature dragnsarc
