I've had the same happen with a production run, except the crystals were from the same manufacturer and the same part number, just different batch. It was fun to track down.
Surprisingly effective solution:

There is research correlating autism and mothers taking certain medications (painkillers, antidepressants). Since autism is hereditary, there is a significant chance that these mothers are autistic too. Autistic people have a vastly high risk of depression, and often have unusual pain thresholds, requiring more painkillers. I would not be surprised of the correlation was real, but the direction of action was reversed; after all, it's plausible that autism causes the need for taking more medication.

I've made Caffenol in the past. It stinks.
The company was a bit too much in bed with the government to begin with...
That voltage spike only applies to flyback converter. Your typical buck/boost converter doesn't do that - the current waveform is a sawtooth, and voltage ripple is designed to be in the mV range.
Seconded. NLP is well worth the money - not just in results, quality, and time saved, but also in finding joy in shooting and scanning color.
They use the code without respecting the license terms. Just because the code is out in the open doesn't mean you can use it however you wish.
Hold onto it, these things are incredibly rare.
The nature of surges is not simple like that - a lightning strike can easily blow MOVs and inrush limiting resistors in multiple devices. I come from a rural area and coming to someone's house with a bag of fresh MOVs and resistors is not an uncommon thing after a big storm.
It's not very different from daisy chaining normal extension cords - safe if you know what you're doing (not exceeding the current rating on any of them). Most surge protectors are fused, making them safer to daisy-chain than normal extension cords.
Note that bstats only tracks Bukkit-compatible servers. It doesn't track Vanilla/Fabric/Forge/etc. installations, so take these numbers with a grain of salt.
There are several primary ways to run a Java Edition server:
1. Pure vanilla server.jar. Has horrible performance, little flexibility, but in the end, it Just Works. This is the server that Realms (Mojang's paid hosting service) uses. In recent versions, some modding is possible via datapacks.
2. Fabric Loader and some vanilla-compatible mods like Carpet etc. Here, "vanilla-compatible" means that a vanilla client can still connect. This is the preferred way of playing for the TMC (Technical Minecraft) community since the underlying server stays mostly vanilla, down to the smallest details and bugs, and no behaviors are changed. The TMC community becomes very agitated when someone tries to "fix" some bugs - they rely on those bugs.
3. Forge/Fabric with mods that change the gameplay, and require the mods to be present on both client and server. This is the traditional "modded" experience, as seen on TV.
4. Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Purpur, various generations of server software that heavily patches the vanilla server, fixing bugs, adding new functionalities, and presenting a very comprehensive Plugin API, while still allowing vanilla clients to connect. This is the software used by servers that implement custom gamemodes, public servers that need griefing/duping/exploit protection. Many high tech farms don't work on Paper because of how many things it "fixes".
5. Folia - a fork of Paper that has multithreading support. It comes with its own can of worms.
Performance-wise, Fabric+Lithium is probably the most performant in the default configuration, though if you're willing to remove functionality, you can probably get better performance out of Paper (at the cost of losing gameplay features).
As for Bugrock Edition: well... there is Geyser that lets you connect to a Java Edition server with a Bedrock client. ;)
I've had Windows updates brick the motherboard by installing a faulty BIOS update. Multiple times.
You won't have it, as it doesn't align with the manufacturers' incentive to sell you a new one every two years.
Digikey also ships DDP, they do the customs for you.
...and good flux carries you the rest of the way.
Let's not forget about unusual char sizes. The popular DSP platform TMS320 has sizeof(char) == sizeof(int), and both are 1. How? Because both are 16-bit, and by definition sizeof(char) == 1.
An organization grows to a size where decisions are made by committee, bikeshedding is rampart, and one idiot in marketing can dismiss and derail the naming suggestions of an entire engineering team.
Welcome to the real world. We don't have cookies, they were cut as a part of a cost saving package signed by the corporate.
Funny how Germany is obsessed with privacy, yet the cookie consent prompt requires extra clicks to decline the consent.
You just described my joy of doing hardware better than I would have been able to describe it myself. Thank you.
It's such a disappointment that they chose to continue the weird custom layout of MX Keys - merged function row with two extra buttons and missing PrintSc/Pause/ScrollLk. I also had to import my MX Keys from the US because the European layout is a joke. In the end, no matter how good things are, they are already spoiled from the design stage. Why, Logitech, why?
Side note also - I bought an MX Master 3 and within a year the rubber coating is ruined. I'm trying to get a warranty replacement but I'm pretty sure the replacement will share the same fate. I guess my hands just are acidic?
Did he lose because of the added weight destroying the performance? ;)
A side question, does anyone know of a good source of some high-quality, old-looking drawing templates (say, DIN A4 frame+information in the bottom right), or a way to make a new template look "old"? I'm absolutely loving the blueprint aesthetics but I struggle to find good quality scans of the stuff to use in my own projects.
As a former alcoholic:
1. You need new friends. Sadly.
2. Having fun without alcohol is very very different. There's not much of that mad frantic whirl of everything, things are much more clear... it feels a lot like social media withdrawal.
3. My biggest challenge after quitting alcohol was finding new, healthier ways of emotional regulation. It's a lot of work, but worth it.
I find it the most bizarre that I had my Minecraft server patched before the news even hit HN.
I've done this very thing to amuse our assembly guys. For extra style points, make sure to use Verdana (Fusion 360 allows that) and add bunch of picture instructions stolen from a legit IKEA assembly manual ("when in doubt, call IKEA", etc.)
