That is horrifying but also very impressive soldering.

Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.
Bugs also are arthropods.
This. Arthropods are bugs
This isn’t exactly right, since it can’t be delivered from the original pair of statements
I was making 2 separate statements. 1. I agreed with the previous comment, 2. I opined that all Arthropods are bugs.
“Bug” is a colloquial term, so I was stating my personal, broader definition
All bugs are arthropods, not all arthropods are bugs.
We’ll have to agree to disagree there.
i know this is for the lols, but you’d be surprised how often stuff like this happens… bodge wires and dead bugging it are much cheaper than re-spinning a board/IC. anything to get the boss off your back, just make sure to give your technicians a case of beer/beverage of choice for the extra effort fixing your fuck up.
I’ve seen bodge wires but this dead bug looks like about 80 connections. Techs don’t ever have to do that do they?
not if you want to make it back to your car at the end of the day ;-)
The question here isn’t “will this work”.
The question is “what will it take to make this work”
TBF bugs are arthropods too, unless you’re the kind of person that includes snails and slugs and/or earth worms. Certainly, “true bugs” in the entomological sense are. Centipedes, along with millipedes and a couple less-known classes, are myriapods, which are a member of the arthropod phylum along with other subphylums like hexapods (insects and friends), arachnids, and the various crustaceans. Arthropods themselves are panarthropods, a group which includes a couple arthropod-looking phylums, namely the velvet worms and the tardigrades/water bears.
Anyway, dat solder job.

Insects (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum.
