You found my personal account! If you know me from formal or irl spaces, you probably shouldn't look in here. Proceed at your own risk.

Clichéd transfem. Poly cuddle slut. Nonsexual little. Frequent meower. Kinky pervert. I pee myself a lot. I reject my own dignity.

I contribute code somewhere, but I forgot where.

I like to be referred to as "kitten" or "little one". You can do that if you want and it'll make me happy but it's not a requirement (also don't use the latter in adult contexts)

I just saw an old man very intentionally, neck movement included, look into someone else's phone in the metro

dude???

@masukomi oh btw another thing, although this is not really about the soldering part: from what I've read, soldering cables directly to PCBs makes for fragile joints. usually it's preferable to just solder headers to the PCBs and then connect them with jumper wires (plus that way you can swap parts easily)

@masukomi (it also leaves a brown-ish burnt residue but it's not harmful to the electronics and goes away easily with IPA)

@masukomi I have a liquid one that has a small "brush" in the lid (kinda like a nail polish bottle). you put it in the pieces you want to solder, in the spots to solder. it makes tin flow a lot smoother.

pathetic piss kitten @kitten@elizabeth.cat

@masukomi oh this is literally your first time soldering?

then yes, you'd probably thank practicing with a stripboard, if anything just to get used to how the tin flows, or how to fix the different fuck-ups that always happen (too much tin, too little tin, too cold iron, etc)

@masukomi
- D4 on the ESP32 looks perfect, it should be your target. GND similarly.
- the pins on the sensor feel like they could use a little bit more tin
- 3V3 in the board could use a touch-up (no more tin, just touching what it's already there with the iron for it to shape and bond better)
- I don't see any flux on your workspace, it makes things a lot easier

also, if you want to just practice, you can get some stripboards and some cheap components (capacitors, resistors, etc)
