USB-C is standard for Android devices, but Apple devices still use lightning.

Libel of this nature must not stand. They're blood emeralds.

Yeah, if the filament is loose that should be your first step, it may not be able to keep the switch closed consistently.

Really depends what you use it for. Being able to make a good beef chili on a weeknight is fantastic, but people certainly try to use them for things that aren't meant for pressure cooking.

I wouldn't rely on a strategy that requires cops to read.

Make sure both ends of the cable are seated firmly.

Open the sensor up and check for any debris that may interfere with the microswitch.

If both of those are ok, you'll want to check continuity of the cable with a multimeter, to make sure the cable hasn't broken internally somewhere. Once that's confirmed good, tape the switch closed and test continuity through the switch. Typically those sensors are made with really cheap microswitches, so you may need to just swap it out with a more reliable switch.

Good news is they're extremely simple, and so pretty easy to test.

This just makes me think of Kleiman v. Wright, where Craig Wright (among many, many other shenanigans) claimed that a printout of an email wasn't an email, it was a piece of paper. That didn't end up going the way he wanted.

Vornado Evap40 and the zigbee/zwave outlet controller of your choice. It's classic dumb tech; if you have it switched on but the power is off, it'll start just fine when you turn the power back on. The top of the central unit just lifts right off for cleaning. And it's a pure evaporative unit, so if something happens and it fails on, it's still self regulating.

Does anyone feel the grain going vertical on the second drawer make it stand out?

Sure, but for shop furniture I don't care. Can always paint it if you want more consistency.

The problem with procgen for variety is that it's almost always a few procedural changes layered onto a finite, typically small, set of "types". You can see this in games like No Man's Sky, where there are technically billions of different animals that you might encounter on a planet, but a lot of them are pretty similar. Even in DRG with their terrain gen, they're building on room templates that you'll start to recognize the more you play.

It's kind of like those ad campaigns about how many millions of ways you can make a burger. Sure, a 1/4 lb cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onions, and ketchup on a sesame seed bun is technically different from a 1/4 lb cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onions, and mustard on a sesame seed bun, but they're both still burgers. You might hit onto some unique combinations (e.g. meat, cheese, and toast on the bottom, with no top bun -> patty melt) but you're ultimately still just seeing burgers everywhere, and the system that generated the burger isn't ever going to generate aloo gobi.
