A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).

Yeah but the PCB inside the paperless device would be as sharp as a paper, not to mention the component thin legs such as electrolytic capacitors (although the majority of electronic components are tiny blocks surface-mounted, there are components that need to be welded in a THT (through-hole) fashion because their electrical contents can't fit the small space of a SMD).
