@miki I’m just happy for you, that you can play games all night. I wish my PSU was alive.
BTW who is that Kirakishou? https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50465 -
@tijagi What the heck's a PSU.
This s Zero. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50469 -
@miki It's basically a battery for your desktop computer. It's for keeping the computer from burning out on a power surge, or turning off instantly in a power outage.

@nerthos Magic device.

@miki It’s computer power supply unit. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50471

@tijagi I don't know how magic works, you're on your own with that. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50472

@maiyannah Guess the translations back and forth I go through whenever I talk about computers in english makes it confusing for me regarding which is which in english.
-
@nerthos To be fair, PSU could actually refer to the computer's power supply internally, or an external power supply unit.
It's a sort of "blanket term", but usually, it is used to mean the internal unit. -
@miki I know how, but I don’t want to do it any more. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50474

@tijagi Did I give you permission to touch your superior officer. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50475

@nerthos @miki
> Oh, you guys call the built in power supply PSU?
Uh, on that part of the globe, yes. It’s even shorter in Slavic runes. I just don’t know the short term for the internal power supply in English. https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50476 -
@tijagi Well, apparently you got it right and I was mixing it up

@miki Gomennasai! When your badge submerges in your big chest, it’s out of sight, and I always forget your rank, s-senpai senior officer mam! https://gs.smuglo.li/attachment/50481

@nerthos So there isn’t a shorthand for the internal PSU? Cause I’ve seen that term applied mostly to external ones, too.

@tijagi As far as english goes, I couldn't tell if there is. I have enough trouble keeping up with their obsession with using loose letters instead of words to name evertyhing
