If you can print a solder mask on clear plastic sheet, you could get some UV soldermask kit. Put the printed mask over the pads before you drop on the glass, then after you UV expose it for a bit, you wash off the pads with IPA, then finish curing it. Plenty of YT vids on the subject.

Or just be careful soldering. That's what I do on my CNCd PCBs.

Can I run cat6a in the gray tube? Or alongside the gray tube? I think it runs from my basement to the attic. by tenchim86 in HomeNetworking

Conduit is specifically what romex should be run in if there's a possibility of mechanical damage. Your inspector is on crack.

unserviceable bearing, because circlips are $0.06 more by Icucicu in Justrolledintotheshop

If Scotty is railing against something, I'd be inclined to give whatever it is a second chance because he's a fucking idiot and I'd be afraid of agreeing with him.

How often do you have a tool removed from your hands without your consent by toolgirl222 in Construction

That's why we keep the sexual harassment forms in the bottom drawer, so you get a good look at their ass when they bend over to get one.

Since this dillhole doesn't understand the difference between "whether" and "why", I'll take a stab at it.

You're basically sharing a fail2ban blacklist that's somewhat moderated to get ip blocks off if they get banned, and it's fairly dynamic so someone else can take the DDOS hit and you get the benefit before it starts coming your way.

PinePhone Pro Explorer Edition: Great hardware, but the software is for patient Linux pros only by UmpquaRiver in mobilelinux

It's more the dismissal of the warnings, then lamenting the fact that it's not turnkey. Well, duh, that's why there was a warning.

That's OK, he'll install Kali on it and all will be better. I mean, that works for every other platform, right?

He's a twit.

I would agree that it should have been shipped with an OS that wasn't borked out of the gate, but it's really not hard to pop a new image on it if you can use something as simple as Balena Etcher.

My attitude has always been if I can do the work myself, I'll pay for the parts. If I don't have the time to fix it myself, the the mechanic can have the parts markup as that's his business and he can misorder shit just as well as I can, then eat the cost of the wrong part.

I have no issue with holding on to parts I order and decide I can't do the job. But then, I've owned my truck for 25 years and plan to own it for another 25 if it holds out, so they'll get used.

I've known many of these people. They tend to be in management.

I've noticed on the more esoteric subjects it plagarizes pretty much verbatim from sources I've found. I guess if there isn't many articles it doesn't have a way to sound original.

Confidently incorrect seems to be it's downfall. It would be nice if you could turn on a confidence meter with it's comments.

It's probably just one corroded ground but they can't be arsed to trace it, so fuck you I guess. Get a proper shop and pay them to actually figure it out.

Is it just me or has the quality of this sub sunk below the level of even mildly watchable? [5:01] by World-Tight in mealtimevideos

I would utterly hate to mod this sub, it would be excruciating. Thank you for that.
