    Blake’s 7: 70s BBC, cheesy FX, some great acting and a largely unprincipled crew which is fun.

    And one of the greatest villains ever.

    Yes, it is. Cherry writes about different topics in that universe. Some books are ship-and-crew like Merchanter's Luck and Heavy Time, some like Cyteen or Downbelow Station aren't. The Chanur books are as well, but they are a series.

    Also, Becky Chambers' Long Way To A Small Angry Planet.

    So people who insist on modifying the exhaust on their cars or bikes to make them louder and annoy everyone around them are Mufflermuffel.
    And when you tell a grouch to stop complaining you'll be a Muffelmuffler.

    No, it is not. Left-pad DID break the internet. That the break was contained before it could propagate and affect consumers does not negate the fact that it was still a serious break.

    You fail to understand that the reality was a massive industry-side problem that got taken care of before it could blow up. That the issue got miscommunicated to the consumers as somehow being an issue for them too doe not make it "blown out of proportion", it makes it a miscommunication.

    Did you actually do any of the work mitigating the issue? Did you see the starting point and what was put in to turn a problem into a non-issue or are you just getting all your viewpoints from local news?

    The threat was not blown out of proportion.

    Bought a Resonant Converter Accidentally
    Can't find a 7.4 x 5.08mm female chassis mount socket - am I using the wrong description?

    I guess you could check if it's a physical fit for an HP (or Dell or Samsung) one and then go to ebay or aliexpress and buy a corresponding "laptop charger socket". Though they're all board mount. I don't know if any panel mount ones even exist.

    The pin is recessed and about 1mm in diameter - which seems impossibly small for 6.67A.

    Because it doesn't carry 6.67A. What you have there is a laptop power supply, probably an HP or Dell one. The current is carried on the inner and outer sleeve of the barrel. The centre pin only carries communication signals.
