Terry Davis, creator of TempleOS and HolyC has, apparently, died- aged 49.
yep
tis a sad day indeed
Authentic Uno does not have these nice little testing pinholes
The mega does.

:D
@meratrix can you even get templeOS on your comp?
probably not
I am newfagging
**FAIL**
because solder wont stick to this fancy white Hori PCB
I seemed to have burned some holes in my soldering tip
but how?
ive worked with different soldering irons and have not encountered this phenomenom<:thronk:441701565607444482>
a bad tip maybe or some kind of cemical reaction is my bet
acid resin core?
no idea. its a crap soldering iron and pack-in solder
i have a backup iron, so it would be nice to figure out what im doing wrong before i start using that one
@M4Gunner you've never had a tip go bad? @Nordhand is basically correct - you probably have been scraping it on metal wool? You get a little scratch going and then it reacts with the flux - that tip is going to melt from the inside out now once you get enough flux and tin in that hole.
Buy a new tip or just go for a new iron. The Goot adjustbale irons are cheap but super awesome
close, i tried cleaning it with a soft towel 🤣
good to know now, thank you
this right here is something quite a few people who do a lot of soldering never use
