IR bottom heaters are usually not strong enough for reballing. They’re for boards that are hard to solder, because there’s a lot of copper or a heatsink for example.

The bottom heater preheats the whole board, not to soldering temperatures but enough to make soldering a lot easier.

The issue isn’t so much that I’m cutting myself, but that I end up with multiple very small wounds, roughly the size of a hair/hairsack. Like my shave is just a little too close?

I have an adjustable handle, Merkur 50C I believe. I set it to the least aggressive setting, and am trying all different brands of blades, but so far there’s little difference.

I’ve tried many things, but still getting many small wounds. With the grain doesn’t get as close a shave.

A car nudging you towards an accident is dangerous, even if it’s not forcing you into an accident.

An unnecessary distraction that needs active attention in a chaotic situation is a bad thing, bad driver or not. And yeah, there are many bad drivers out there. Cars should be designed to be driven by bad drivers, not armchair experts.

Yes, but not because of the oil. Pipes often clog due to a buildup of soap. Don’t use more soap than you need, which for most people is about 10 times less than what they use now.

If you really believe Google is about to go out of business, you’re out of your mind

As long as you are someplace and time where they use the Gregorian calendar

Taking out the high-pitch whine will make them much more bearable. It’s a student project, they did well. This isn’t groundbreaking Noble-prize stuff, but it doesn’t deserve all the hate it’s getting here either.

Why go to an online university if you don’t want an online education? There are plenty of places that have in-person classes, without being elite or elite priced.
