  • Ah, not to worry, even professionally it’s very common to buy your wafers. I am on mobile data right now so I’ll check out those videos later!

    Basically, every single machine that needs a vacuum chamber - so almost all non-wet processes, like physical/chemical vapor deposition, reactive ion etching, scanning electron microscopy (although a good optical microscope will do if you’re not at the nano scale… Which is almost certainly the case if you’re doing things at home).

    Honestly maybe I’m just too used to the lab setting and am underestimating how much you can actually do without vacuum processing. I’ll take a look later: this all looked so out of the reach of an ordinary person that I never even considered following content creators who do this. Thank you!





  • You’re a very good person!

    My mother’s dog was a dog we gave “temporary” shelter to… Five years ago. She’s 10 now and we couldn’t be happier. She came to us from a very difficult home situation (her previous owner had just escaped from a violent marriage, and we think the dog might have been a victim too, but nobody was ever able to prove anything). She’s still a little monster and she’s still very afraid of everything, but there’s no comparing how she was when we adopted her and how she is now.

    I had an ex who lived somewhere where people often went to to abandon their dogs once they grew too old, too big or too aggressive. Her family also took in as many as they could: when we broke up, they had something along the lines of 10 dogs. It was very rewarding, too, as she got a good friend in each and every one of them. But it really hurts my heart to imagine that someone could be so cruel as to just abandon a dog like that, even hurt them.

    I had appendicitis and barely noticed. I just felt like I had a mild case of gas for 3 days. I was lucky that I was with my ex at the time and she got worried, otherwise I might be dead and would barely have cared.

    But then the year after that I broke my back and also only cared to go to the doctor after one month, so maybe I’m not the best example
