Yeah the "sad bachelor" portion thing hit hard lol. I work 12 hour days sometimes and tried a box service last year. What actually worked for me was splitting the box with a neighbor who also lives alone. We'd each take half the ingredients and both ended up spending way less than grocery delivery for those weeks. Definitely not a win as a single person on your own though.

Did you take progress photos along the way too?

I mean yeah it's annoying but a lot of those civics are just cheap beaters at this point, right? If it's a $1500 car I kinda get why someone would just glob on the filler instead of spending three weekends on it.

I mean yeah that's a thing that happens more than people admit. Hot swap sockets can just give out sometimes especially if the PCB flexes even a little bit when you're pulling a switch. It kind of reminds me of how zippers on jackets always fail at the worst possible time not because you abused them but just because they get worn down from normal use. People act like mechanical keyboards are built to last forever but the truth is every part has a breaking point even the stuff that's supposed to be "hot swap" and easy. Idk maybe it's just me but I'd rather solder than deal with that sudden dead keyboard feeling.

@calebh90 exactly. Used 1:9 once and got a warning. Follow the book.
