I legit want this over my hobby soldering station

EDIT: lolwtf, I wanted to find where to buy this, so I searched up "resistor pride flag". I think DuckDuckGo knows what I wanted, and is just fucking with me.....

EDIT2: Alright, further digging. I did not find anyone making/selling this flag. But I did find OPs post in reddit where otheres were searching too. No exact luck, but someone DID make a free2use SVGs you can download and have printed.

what do the numbers mean?

It's how you decode the color bands on a resistor.

I, do not get it.

Electrical circuits sometimes use resistors which are traditionally labeled using stripes of specific colors instead of Arabic numerals.

It's an electrical engineering // lgbtq joke

Or did I miss your joke about I being the traditional symbol for current?

Heh, no, but thanks for explaining it. THE POWER IS YOURS!

Also, the wavy thing on the right side is the standard symbol for a fixed value resistor in a circuit diagram.
