inMy guidance counselor in 2011 swore the bachelor's degree was the only ticket, and my community college diploma is why I have a job now
Guidance counselors were told that line for decades because it used to be true, but trades and tech jobs changed all that. Plenty of people do fine with a two year degree, and some four year grads end up underemployed with a mountain of debt. That said, it really depends on the field, since nursing or teaching still needs the bachelor's.

inI stopped flushing my chainsaw's bar oil holes with gas and started using a $4 pipe cleaner, and it fixed my oiling problems in a week
Gas makes everything worse, same as using it on a dirty carb.

inCyrious Plasma Tables vs Tracker CNC?
I looked at both when I was shopping. The Tracker has a nice Z-axis and is slightly cheaper base, but by the time you add the features that come standard on Cyrious, they're about the same. I went with Cyrious because of the crate shipping and included training. No regrets.

inI finally fixed the blinking red light on my NES
Actually, about using isopropyl alcohol on cartridge connectors, it's good but not always enough. Old consoles can have oxidation that just wiping won't fix. For a better clean, try gently rubbing the pins with a pencil eraser first to scrape off that gunk. Then use the alcohol to wipe away any leftover bits. Another simple fix is opening up cartridges to clean the contacts inside, which often get dirty too. Just take your time and use the right tools so you don't break anything lmao.
