These days I mostly apply it to passives. Especially small ones. 0201 are a pain to work with, liable to blow away if you look at them wrong. 0402s are better, but still easy to lose. But if I'm trying to keep size & weight down I tend to need the tiny parts, so it's easier to design to use common values as much as possible and spend $30-40 for a reel of 10,000 of them. I doubt I'll ever run out of 10kΩ resistors!

Non-stick pans tend to be made of aluminum (660°C melting point), sometimes alloyed with some copper to improve thermal conductivity. Aluminum-copper alloys tend to melt in the 500-600°C range. Most aluminum alloys melt at a point which an electric stove can easily reach if left on high. The coils can glow cherry-red pretty easily, which is 815-870°C.

I'dv deleted the default, it's never come back.

Yes, it's a fancy way to save a tab. I just leave the tab open. Not a feature I want, so not something I want them to waste limited development time on. It'd be nice if it were through the bookmarks interface, so booarks could save state & history the way tabs do, but that's not what's proposed so I'd rather not have this. PWAs are a workaround to make up for the limitations of bookmarks.

PWAs were a feature I marked "want least". I don't like a cluttered home screen, I'd much rather just use bookmarks.

Surface Mount Technology, obviously!

Except Alpine & those based on it, which uses Linux but not GNU libc or GNU coreutils or GNU BASH... Just musl libc & Busybox. I.e. the entire subject of this thread is one of the non-GNU Linuxes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Yes, I listed sysvinit for that reason. And Musl instead of glibc. GNU is optional in a Linux distro, except for the kernel's use of a GNU license.

Sure, I should have gone further.

Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/GNU BASH/Linux/X11//GTK/GNOME
Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/GNU BASH/Linux/X11/GTK/LXDE
Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/Zsh/Linux/X11/GTK/GNOME
Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/Zsh/Linux/X11/GTK/LXDE
SysVInit/musl/Busybox/tcsh/Linux/csh
Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/Zsh/Linux/Wayland/QT/KDE Plasma
Systemd/GNU libc/GNU Coreutils/Zsh/Linux/Wayland/QT/LXQT

etc, etc.

There are thousands of combinations of the possible layers needed to make an OS.

Systemd/GNU/Linux/GTK or Systemd/GNU/Linux/QT, really…

It tastes like death and I love it.

It's often used as the name for ammonium chloride on black licorice. The ammonium chloride also makes a great soldering iron tip cleaner!
