My neighbor and I had a heated talk about home solar panels

Wait, you said the making of the panels hurts the environment too and he just blew right past that? That's the whole debate. It takes a lot of energy and some nasty stuff to make them. To act like that part doesn't count is wild. Cutting down on use first is just common sense. It's weird he wouldn't even see that as a step.

Skipping whole-animal use is plain irresponsible for our trade

Man, I have to admit, I used to not care about using the whole animal. But learning how butchers make broth from bones and cooking fat from trimmings changed my view. Seeing all that waste piling up in landfills really drives the point home. Now I see why skipping parts is just adding to the problem.

Pro tip: I used to hate desoldering wick, but now I swear by it for clean PCB work.

Try skipping the extra solder step. Adding fresh solder can make the joint harder to clean (since you're just putting more stuff to remove). Just press the wick onto the old joint and heat it, and it'll work fine.

After a frizz fiasco, I'm rethinking my entire approach to humidity-proof styling

That greasy mess in humid weather thing is SO real. But here's an angle nobody considers: silicone can actually seal your hair so tight it blocks ALL moisture from getting in, which is bad news if your hair is already dry. @bailey.miles might be onto something with lighter serums, but the real issue is buildup over weeks, not just weight. You could switch products forever and still have dull hair if you don't wash it out properly. It's less about the serum and more about how it acts like a plastic wrap on your strands.
