This is a normal post Do you often find yourself saying "Just try turning it on and off again"?

This is a normal post That lasts about 1 second,
Before the unobtanium custom 3000 ball FPGA releases the magic smoke.

This is a normal post Do you?
Can I get some free IT advice...

I'm hacking a ATX power supply to run a 3D printer and some bits.

If I take one of the 5 volt lines and wire it to a usb socket will that work?
Or will I 'spload my phone. USB's 5 volts right?

This is a normal post Not really IT-related, but yeah, that'll work OK
providing the voltage it outputs is within the USB range (4.75-5.6v), even with a low current draw.

Be aware that the 5v line of an ATX PSU can output 10s of amps, so could potentially seriously fry something connected to it (or at least trip its internal protection, which could be a pain to fix) if it has a fault -- you could stick a 2.5A fuse between the 5v line and the USB port to minimise the risk.

Also note that some devices will only charge if the USB port enumerates the device (which would require a USB driver circuit), but I think that tends to be older devices made before USB charging became mainstream.

This is a normal post I don't normally think remakes work as well as the original
That didn't seem too bad at all though. As long as they got someone who can play a good pennywise they may pull it off.

This is a normal post The original Mini Series had a lot wrong as well as right (Pennywise - good, Giant Spider thing - crap)
So there plenty of scope for this not to be just an imitation of the first version but with cgi.

Bet it doesn't have the sewer gang-bang from the book either.
