Bad news: broke something near my laptop's hinge because something must have gone in the mechanism before I tried opening it
Good news: the damage is minor, i just had to glue back the plastic bit that has the screw hole inset thing (and had I not fixed it I'd just be missing a screw)
Good news 2: that means I finally get to put an ifixit "Fixed" sticker on my laptop :3

Hi, so I'm in the process of making a foraging guide and some other resources for a Solarpunk discord server I'm starting with the goal of teaching people DIY, sewing, repairs, gardening and foraging. My knowledge is largely in foraging and ecology, so I'm looking for people with knowledge in:
-sewing and fibre arts
-gardening
-electronics repair
-cooking
-any other solarpunk skills
If you'd like to be involved or know someone who would, please DM me, thankyou :D

3DS PSA
GUYS! Before you trash that broken 3DS/DS that wont turn on, or is otherwise nonfunctional, OPEN THAT THING UP AND CHECK ITS RIBBON CABLES!! The 3DS/DS family is NOTORIOUS for having fiddly ribbon cables that go loose so, so easily. It's something to do with the way the hinges function. And when a ribbon cable comes out, it can cause insane problems that make it seem like the entire thing is completely broken. Top signs your DS is fine but there's a loose ribbon cable:
When you press the power button the LED indicator flashes blue for a moment and then turns off One or both screens aren't turning on but sound is playing Certain buttons aren't reading, or are only reading occasionally
CHECK YOUR RIBBONS!! There are really good guides on how to open up and inspect your 3DS on the internet. My favorite guides are the ifixit ones. Be so careful opening up you console, though. Turn it off all the way, remove the battery, and then start getting into it's meat, slowly and gently.
This is one of my fun hobbies

Why a Good Rework Station Matters More Than Most Engineers Realize
In electronics development and repair, precision isn't just a convenience-it's a necessity.
Whether you're assembling prototypes, repairing damaged PCBs, replacing SMD components, reworking microcontrollers, or troubleshooting embedded systems, the quality of your tools directly impacts the quality of your work. A reliable rework station can mean the difference between a successful repair and a damaged board.
One of the biggest challenges faced by engineers and technicians today is working with increasingly compact electronics. Modern devices feature densely packed components, fine-pitch ICs, and multilayer PCBs that demand accurate temperature control and dependable performance. This is where a professional 2-in-1 soldering and hot air rework station becomes invaluable.
The Bakon BK602S is designed to address these challenges by combining a powerful 90W soldering iron with a 550W hot air rework station in a single compact unit. This setup allows users to seamlessly switch between precision soldering and hot air rework tasks without requiring multiple pieces of equipment on the workbench.
For makers and hobbyists, it offers the flexibility needed for projects involving development boards, sensors, displays, and communication modules. For repair professionals, it provides the control required for component replacement, IC removal, connector repairs, and PCB maintenance. Educational institutions and laboratories can also benefit from a versatile workstation that supports a wide range of practical electronics applications.
The digital display enables precise monitoring and adjustment of operating parameters, helping users maintain consistent temperatures throughout the soldering and desoldering process. This level of control is particularly important when working with temperature-sensitive components, ensuring reliable results while minimizing the risk of thermal damage.
As electronics continue to evolve, having dependable equipment is becoming just as important as having the right components. Investing in quality tools not only improves productivity but also enhances the accuracy, safety, and longevity of your work.
