Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Electronics release all sorts of non-cool chemicals... plastic related, and flame retardants.
That’s actually really funny.
This is not a helpful feature.
But where were the ants removed to?
That's Lemmy.ml for you. Could swap to an instance like .world that doesn't use the profanity removal feature.
What a removeded feature.
Solder and flux, too.
Does solder actually emit fumes below melting point? I did not know about that.
depends on the solder, honestly. I doubt it would be an issue with consumer/mass produced electronics, but there's a possibility. But if you're doing your own with rosin-core solder (which is most solders,) the rosin/flux can. (you can remove it with stuff meant to remove it. which you should do because flux is freaking nasty.)
Oh, interesting. I did not know about that. Thanks for the info. I will be looking into some cleaning stuff for my personal soldering projects.
