I feel cheated. I have just learned that one of my favorite measurements of volume is not a SI unit. Turns out according to Wikipedia
"The litre (American spelling: liter; SI symbol L or l[1]) is a non-SI metric system unit of volume..."
"In the International System of Units (SI), the standard unit of volume is the cubic metre (m3)."
Luckily the liter as us Americans spell it can easily be converted to meter cubed. Still I have similar to how I imagine a . I was looking up measurements for volume after watching an episode of Archer, "Blood test" (Season 2, episode 3) where one of main antagonists references the unit of volume "gil".
So in order to take out my rage of finding this information out I am posting my three most hated subtle traits of women. Of course I am in no real position to criticize other people aesthetics, but come on people this is the internet!
1. Bad teeth
I feel like this may me the most recognized out of the terrible trio. I'm not even talking about missing teeth or yellowish / brown teeth. Those are obviously awful. What I am talking about is slightly less than perfect teeth. For instance I extremely dislike the square very small type of teeth.
I call them Chiclet teeth, after the chewing gum brand.
2. An Arab nose
For lack of a better name I have been calling this a layered nose.
See how the sides of the nose are not smooth and form a type of bulbous outcropping.
Often the girls will try to hide this type of nose by increasing the contrast by what I can only imagine is around 900% to hide any of the curvature of the nose.
3. Recessed chin
The picture on the left is a recessed chin.
This is especially damaging to a persons appearance if they are dual wielding large pointed nose with the chin. Then they look shockingly similar to rats.Hot Glue vs Soldering for connecting LEDs
Pros:
- Hot glue is cheaper
- Hot glue is safer (hot burning thermo plastic on your skin vs hot burning metal on your skin)
- You can hot glue inside while many soldering agents contain Lead and other materials that are less-than-great for your lungs
- Hot glue is very easy to reverse, just get a utility knife and pop off the dried hot glue and the LED stem comes right off
Cons:
- Sometimes the glue will go between the metal wire and metal stem. Hot glue is not conductive so this will open the circuit. When this happens I usually use my digital multimeter and find the connection destroying the continuity and re-glue that connection. Soldering does not have this problem because the intermediate "glue" is conductive metal
- It is significantly less badass
All in all I find using hot glue to cover the ends of the soldered connections effective to prevent two different circuit loops from interacting.
