electronic hairball

When an electronic device inexplicably stops working and, after multiple and different attempts to get it to work again, i.e., unplugging, plugging back in, re-booting etc., it starts working again.

It had an electronic version of a hairball.

After resetting the DIP switches and software configurations, the jimsonator started working again. I guess that cleared the EHB (electronic hairball).

What's the size of an electron

I guess that's a good way of saying there isn't actually a way to do something right?

Hym "So they were asked 'What's the size of an electron?' And I guess the guy was saying it's not like a size thing but it's a 'field' or something. But whatever, what you are doing is worse than what I'm doing so what I'm going to do crank it up another order of magnitude if you don't stop, let it go, and leave me alone with the preceeds of my own labor."

electronic undergrowth

The morass of irrelevant and confusing messages transmitted by electronic media that conceal important information hidden in their midst. For example, receiving 70+ e-mails a day of which five are actually relevant, three are essential and one is absolutely vital. Unfortunately that single crucial message is overlooked whilst you plough through the other totally unnecessary communications and you therefore get a bollocking for doing 65 unnecessary things and 4 sensible things that could have waited whilst you could have done the one career-saving thing that you didn't become aware of until it was too late.

I'm sorry I didn't attend that vital meeting; your e-mail was lost in my electronic undergrowth.

electronics

Electronics:
One of multiple creatives done at GCSE, and A level.
A dumbass subject you can do, but really shouldn’t. You think it’s just welding and soldering wires together, until a 100 page report comes outta nowhere and ruins the rest of the week
Just know you will regret it if you choose it: do product design instead

Person1: what creative do you do?
Person 2: Electronics

Person 1: BAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
