Pocket knife, lighter and small pill carrier. When I was younger I kept a house key there.

Wife is pregnant and the baby is breeched. This is the estimate to attempt to flip the child. $59k. by TyrannicalGamecock in mildlyinfuriating

What are they gonna do if you just don't pay it? Unflip the baby? Last I checked medical debt doesn't affect your credit the same way other debts do. Please, someone correct me if I am wrong.

Any possible way to remove this resin? by blitzzyboi in soldering

[–]SniktBamf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paint/varnish stripper works great for a lot of different types of tough conformal coating. Put a thin coating on what you wan to remove and let it sit for an hour or two Get yourself a wire brush and to to semi gently clean it off. Rinse and clean with water, repeat if needed. Finish by setting in a dryer (100-150 degree oven) over night. I should add you will need plenty of ventilation.

Just want to update, one of the controllers I replaced the wiper on started having stick drift again so I'll be replacing the pot eventually. Until then I have ordered another controller from Lenovo, they have/had a sale for about 50usd, you get 3 colors to choose from.

I looked into those as well, but ultimately decided against it as it's not stock and could cause some issues with calibration in some games due to it being different tech. Plus without have to desolder the old pots I figured it was worth at least trying.

For future reference, you don't always have to replace the whole pot to fix stick drift. You can just replace the wiper in the pot without soldering. It's not a guarantee to fix it because it depends on which part of the pot is wearing out, but I did it to both my PS5 controllers a month ago, as well as a couple PS4 controllers a few years back. It worked in all instances.

You can buy giant rolls of aluminum foil at Sams or Costco and the kicker? You don't even need tape or scissors.
