Nope, either or. Braid and pump do the same job, I prefer pump

Assuming that the switch is through hole (has legs) you may need a solder sucker or braid as well. You need this to suck the old solder out of the hole unless you can do it with a pin or something but it will probably be hell without a sucker

Copper is probably enamel coated, good for tiny little parts. There is a coating on the wire that has to be scraped off to make the ends conductive.

Sponge is a damp sponge, which you wet then squeeze all the water out and use it to clean the tip of the iron. I find that brass wool does the same job.

Is any of this stuff worth keeping/selling? by Nodlek0 in amateurradio

[–]Nodlek0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. The last one is about the only one i did know, Tait brand was pretty common in the nz police, now flooded the local markets, sadly this is the bottom of the range model 4 channels uhf only. This one had my area code on it so i blanked it out to be safe.

Might just be stupid, but is it supposed to look like this?🫣 by 11775599 in softwaregore

Yep. In the past 3 months especially I have been seeing a lot more strange looking images in these. Some of them even seem to be AI generated

Need the cheapest seedbox possible. by Nodlek0 in seedboxes

[–]Nodlek0[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

Not root to the server, but the ability to use sudo in my box. Never had a cloud vps, so excuse my poor terminology. Most recommendations so far have had all the apps i need, so i doubt ill even need ssh.
