SMD is way less scary than I thought! It’s best if you spin your own board though. Passives and SOICs are piss easy just with a hot poker and tin.

This sounds really expensive. 5G as a backup makes sense, but 30 bucks is actual primary service money, not just in case money.

Make it 5 and I would consider it.

Nuclear technologies missed their window. The use cases where they are the best technical solution now are extremely limited, and that means you can get the investment going to improve them.

It’s a curiosity now.

There’s an alternative timeline where Chernobyl doesn’t happen and we decarbonize by leaning on nuclear in the nineties, then transition to renewables about now. But that’s not our timeline. And if it were, it would be in the past now.
