    Use 2 E192 in parallel: a 6.19Ω resistor with a 4500Ω resistor. This gives 6.1846Ω which is close enough for rock and roll.

      I feel like this is one of those comments I want to hoard in the off chance that I ever get into this and start building shit but I know deep inside me that’s never gonna happen.

        For you and anybody else wondering, the GP is a joke and should not be taken seriously.

        The reason there isn’t a resistor with the value on the meme is because real resistors have error tolerances and are never the exact value on their marks. If you go assembling a card-castle of resistors with the wrong value so that the labels add up to the value you want, you will still have a resistor of the wrong value.
