Jokes are good. They cause great joy and lower one’s blood pressure. I find the excessive, pedantic rigidity of the perceived “engineer mindset” on here, claustrophobic and stifling at times.

There’s more to life than electronics. Have a laugh, it’s a good tonic and you’ll live longer.

The intent of this forum is to be electronics specific, the majority of us agree on that purpose.
If you want less engineering mindset, maybe check out arduino/adafruit/etc forum.
If you want something other than electronics, check out some of these forums, or go outside.

Hey, lick your wounds.  I got a "like" here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/renewable-energy/whats-wrong-with-smd-fets-on-pcb-lying-on-top-of-metal-plateheatsink/msg4546229/#msg4546229

There was a time when I really felt for Faringdon and spent hours trying to give him advice based on my experiences.  All of that was ignored, similar to another frequent poster from the UK here.  I don't think he cares and apparently the UK has enough support services that he isn't starving to death.  That's the one fear my mom instilled in me from a very early age, as ridiculous as it may seem today.*
