Surprised no one mentioned cost. When I moved to a city it got real expensive to buy a new tree each year. When I lived in a place where pine trees grew it was a lot cheaper.
Bought a tree about 7 years ago that fits in my place and spent $45 once.
It’s way nicer to have a real tree but I saved hundreds at this point.
Man are artificial trees a TON of work to keep nice.
Not usually… I mean please do read up/watch some youtube videos on electronic repair safety, but for the most part the power supply of a ps1 lives in the unpleasant shock realm of zapping power.
Talk like this scares people away from doing their own repairs.
Looking at cost of ownership. Spending maybe $100-200 every 20 years is really good. Repair is an option
I’m no expert either but a first step would be to take the case off and listen for which part the whine is coming from. That may clue you in.
You can also touch parts and see if any are extra warm/hot soon after start up.
That can help direct your trouble shooting.
Don’t buy parts until you have a clue as to what might be happening. It’ll save you money.
That’s a funny way to say that this place is not full of bots.
Classic
It’s a parents job to love the child. The child didn’t ask to born. If they love the parent back it makes it MUCH easier. But the fundamental job doesn’t change if the kid has a bad day/week/month or year.
Depends on the reason you are eating it. A baby spinach salad is the healthy way I like best it’s easy enough to eat a 1/2 to 1 pound at a time.
My favorite spinach dish is a Stouffer’s Spinach Soufflé. It’s the opposite of healthy. I used to cook it to a soft set and use it as a chip dip. It became my go to dip to replace artichoke dip
I haven’t seen that same willingness. China is willing to profit from Russia and wants a non-western aligned source of raw materials.
They seem to be giving just enough support to stop Russia from collapsing.
It’s possible for china to give Russia enough aid to basically cause Ukraine to capitulate. I just haven’t seen much to indicate anything near that support.
the price of oil is low and Russian refineries can’t refine and deliver vast amounts of oil due to attacks.
Though Russia has in the past found effective ways to get around what would have truly been crippling financial situations. They have been very resourceful in the past. It just gets harder and harder each time . They are just in a worse situation in all ways year on year.
This time they will get past it, but they are getting depleted. I just don’t see them ending the war until the choice is out their hands.

Hell yea! Gotta go big to get a real effect. Put the filters in rooms that are 1/2 or less the rates size .
I have Honeywell filters in each bedroom . So much less dust. the pre filters catch most of the dust and they can be cleaned and reused.
You got 2 sandwiches for $10 or just one?
It’s hard for a normal person to comprehend. He takes it because it can be taken.
In this case people understand money, so they think he wants more money. He wants to TAKE and that money exists so he should take it. He may not want it or have any plans for it. The sheer fact it can be taken is why he is taking it.
That is the true way of the .001%
If it can be taken it should be taken by them.
Want, need , enough, not enough are all more advanced thoughts . It’s only ‘Me Take’
By all means try a tooth pick and pure alcohol, if that doesn’t work a professional might get you set straight.
Repair shops can do a better job cleaning than a home option. I had a data and charge problem, bought a kit and tried 3x times; it didn’t work . Bought new cables just in case that was the issue. Brought it in for repair fully expecting to pay for a port repair. Repair shop did a through cleaning charged me $15 and sent me on my way with everything working.
Thanks kind stranger. That was nearly 20 years ago for me, but still neat.
It pads out the runtime, making theaters take longer to get the next showing in. That is the reason why everyone doesn’t get a credit. That said studios still seem to squeeze a few credits on screen that are not required.
The easiest way to prove this is to see who on a film DOESN’T get a credit. It’s going to be non-union positions to go uncredited. For as many credits as you see there are hundreds of unlisted ones. Just about anytime you see a company credited for vfx and you see only 10 names, an easy 20 were left off.
It cost money to add credits to a movie. Studios don’t do much more than they have to.
I got a credit once. It was cool and made my mom happy.
When trouble shooting sometimes chips, caps or resistors can get much hotter than surrounds parts. It can let you know to inspect that part for replacement.
Sure don’t grab leads with your fingers but sometimes you can tell something like a voltage regulator is malfunctioning because it just gets really hot.
I mean you can just use an IR camera but most people don’t have one.
