Paraglider's land into the wind so he was down wind. Of course delivering SBD's could be a violation of the Geneva Convention.

That was done to Karl Rove's car in the White House parking lot.

GOOD.

Wow:

(Needed a 3000uf cap. Only had 1000uf. Put 3 in parallel to get close enough to 3000uf. Nice).

Not sure why, but I'm sure my EE friend just got a cold shiver down her spine.

Nothing actually wrong with doing that, assuming it's done neatly and professionally (and the capacitors used exceed the minimum voltage rating and ESR). I've created similar looking bodges myself many times, but only during development or diagnostic steps. For the final fix I would normally source the correct capacitor. But if the correct capacitor is not readily available or the repair is urgent, I'll join a few capacitors together neatly to form an insulated capacitor 'pack'.

What the problem? A little dust on the fan?

True story: just got this computer from a customer and she had this on her palm rest lol

Got this in my email today and got a chuckle out of it. There's been references on the forum to a colloquial term we use here in the USA - pizza tech. As in the pizza delivery kid who does computer repair between deliveries.

Wait, you attended Pizza Expo 2019 Mark?

I didn't even know there was such a thing. Who knew making round Cheese On Toast would become so popular.

Yep. Squeezed it in between the large pepperoni delivery and the Lyft pickup........

This is how you make friends with sci-fi fans.

I personally prefer Stargate though.... and Dune.

 

[hjelpio]

Pretty much.
