I want to buy a soldering iron. Nothing fancy, just something that works, to solder a few wires here and there, maybe parts at some point. Should I avoid el cheapo brands, or any other good suggestions are welcome.

@mdione I'm really happy with my partner's TS100 (reflashed with open source firmware), but these days I think I'd buy a pinecil, which is basically the same kind of iron, but already comes with said firmware.
the cheap chinese one with analogue temperature regulation¹ we used earlier was also mostly fine, tbh, this one is just more portable, a bit more comfortable and not that expensive either
¹ i.e. an unmarked knob

@valhalla yeah, no, "reflashed with" is not something I expect from a soldering iron :-P

@mdione I mean, you don't buy your tools based on the availability of free software firmware to flash them with?
I thought that was everybody did these days
(ok, not really. that's what we tend to do, however :) )

@beach this appears to be unlisted (I think the new term is ”quiet public”?)

I started converting all my files with this open-source tool, and I’m not going back

@andre123 credo ci siano depositi pieni di case e alimentatori nuovi inutilizzati per qualsiasi tipologia di processori
poi puoi comprare container di hw usato e suddividere quel che funziona per tipo
però se è roba vecchia 10 anni max
per le ottimizzazioni è la cosa che mi preoccupa meno:
scegli un SO: Debian + xfce o NetBSD (con xfce) e fai scrivere driver (in c) dove ti servono
come hw poi sarebbe il caso di “battezzare” due o tre brand lenovo hp dell (?)

Them: now that you're #vegan, what do you eat? Salad?
My mind: yes, mfer, salad. I only eat fuckin' salad. Have you ever been to a vegan restaurant? They don't even have a menu. Just a strip of paper that says "salad". They don't even sell beverages. Just salad. In fact, they don't take your order, they just straight up bring you a plate of salad as soon as you sit down. They don't even ask you "would like anything else?" No. They bring you a side dish of salad with your salad.
Me: Not really.
