Oh for sure. I’m not knocking those that can do it, just that my regular soldering skills are shit enough that I’d probably be hesitant to reball something more complicated even with the right gear :-)

Ah. Other than fixing the old Xbox360 RROD , I’ve never needed to do any BGA work, just circuit soldering
What’s the IR bottom heater for?
Strange, the words i think of are more like: “narcissistic” “obnoxious” & “asshole” with a side of “moron” thrown in
“She makes some good points. I might vote for her if she wasn’t a Democrat” - Republicans
Or a voting scam
“Hmm, it says here that Sir Barkinwoof IV is a registered Republican. If there is some discrepancy out must be the fault of the former owner”
“sink Twitter and we’ll give you some preferential deals”
Yeah, a lot of the stuff that the “Left” fails on seems to be because it hits “well it’s not exactly perfect and good for absolutely anybody do we’re not gonna do it”
Whereas the “Right” is basically ‘well it came from my guy so… seems good’
Does M365 not run on Linux?
Yeah, there’s a reason people prefer Kindle e-ink type e-readers to just using a tablet like a Kindle Fire, even if the latter can do more stuff
If there’s evidence of the crime,I don’t think they actually need the victim to press charges themselves?
Yeah, the whole “Dems cheated by pulling a switcheroo with candidates” line seemed to feed into that, but I also feel like there was a bit of slack-jawed “well we didn’t see this coming” panic in the Republican party as well
Yeah, don’t be so sure of winning that you get too lazy to fricking vote. And also watch out because I’m sure there will be some dirty tricks around polling stations as certain Republican areas get desperate
Which worked with physical stores but with Amazon where you have 100+ sellers hawking the same defective PoS under 100+ unpronouncable brand-names
Yeah, it seems many didn’t have an issue with the evil shit just that they weren’t on the top and/or were poor
Given that there appear to be plenty of overseas sellers that will happily counterfeit a UL stamp, or copy an entire product - including UL stamp - but with different innards, how would we even know at this point?
“Biden may have accidentally called Zelenskyy Putin. At an open meeting, but Trump likely calls Putin ‘boss’ in hidden ones”
I think a factor would also be post-way medical/life improvements that led to decreased infant mortality as well as longer “boomer” lifespans.
More of them lived, and for longer
Security products of this nature need to be tight with the kernel in order to actually be effective (and prevent actual rootkits).
That said, the old mantra of “with great power” comes to mind…
Yeah, I’m generally ok if somebody is charging a reasonable rent which covers their reasonable mortgage, so long as they’re still taking care of all the other stuff (repairs, city taxes, etc).
What burns me is people who either a) knowingly buy in a hot, excessively priced market with full intent to charge excessive rents while providing absolutely minimal service or support
b) bought 10+ years ago but have pumped up rents to the same as those who bought at mortgages 2-3x the rate, citing “market rates” and often doing sketchy things to raise rents including renovictions etc, while being shitty - often absentee - slumlords
Maybe I’m showing my age, but there did used to be quite a good number of mom & pop type landlords who weren’t shit, and while the commercial ones cost a bit more there was a decent mix.
Now, the commercial ones are actually mostly a safer bet in small cities. They’ll raise rent every year but consistently, and the decent ones are pretty prompt about repairs and not fucking people over deposits etc. There are bad ones but it’s pretty easy to tell which are which. The problem is of course that availability at the good ones is lower and they do cost more.
Good private landlords are increasingly hard to come by, as the best ones generally end up quitting after either getting too old or after a bad tenant experience, while the slumlords have leveraged their existing properties to finance buying more and more, leading to a market full of increasingly overpriced mould-monsters.
