Looking for open source software. I’d rather use Antenna Pod instead of Spotify for podcasts instead of paying for an app or subscription that may not be reliable.
Drinking water when tired. It kept my hands busy and helped me cut back on smoking.
Learning to solder helped me buy less replacement electronics.
Most recently it was the cable of a controller that was wrapped too tightly.
There’s also circuit boards if you need to replace an old capacitor for example. I know some people who can repair scratched traces but that’s above my skill level.
These might be kind of lame or obvious

Can you expand on the last one a little bit? What kind of electronics is still repairable by soldering these days?
