Code Project is media and we're socializing on it (sharing ideas, information, content in the form of articles, and sometimes even our day).
I've got some bad news for you...

Smokers will do this and other dumb stuff for their fix - many Darwin Awards have been delivered thanks to cigarettes.
Examples of typical smoker behavior include smoking in bed (the source of many house fires), at the fuel pump (even the fuel pump operators do that), while handling explosives or otherwise flammable objects.

Surprisingly, the "too hot coffee" thing was actually serious: Lawsuits That Actually Weren't Ridiculous - YouTube[^] have a look at 1:15 onwards. (He's a douche, and his voice is annoying, but ... ity's good content.)

No, it's not very smart. But sometimes even very smart people make mistakes.

I think he was referring to the Apollo 1 disaster as smart people making a mistake.

That has nothing to do with the original post - tighten up.
That fire happened because 1) systems engineering decided high oxygen was good - less weight and 2) there was an electrical short.
Completely different.
Now, if they were supplying pure oxygen to an airline cockpit, that's full retard.

Disagree,
1) systems engineering decided high oxygen was good - less weight
Yes, and ready to feed any type of fire.
2) there was an electrical short
With probably over 10 miles of wire in the capsule, the likelihood of a short
had to have been considered, then rejected.
Both events were the result of poor choices and never should of happened in my opinion.

At least the Apollo astronauts were not smoking in the cabin. That would also be full retard. According to Wikipedia the increase risk of fire in an oxygen rich environment was previously known w/ several such "mistakes" already having occurred prior. Also according to article providing a nitrogen mixture poses risks re/ bends and something to do w/ partial pressure and hull pressure which I did not quite follow. - Best

I am considering obtaining a proper development machine to replace my pig. I know nothing re/ hardware and have not found a preassembled unit to my liking re/ parts and cost so must rely on PC parts picker sites and self-assembly. May I please inquire if it is known if PC parts picker sites are reliable or if any in particular are recommended? I do not wish to debug after assembly. "Plug and Play Is The Way". Incidentally my preferences are CPU intel i7 preferably the one w/ 8 P core and 4 E core, 1TB SSD screaming fast, 16G RAM, no graphics card as I do not game only read/post here and edit under Visual Studio and stream TV shows Sci-Fi of course - Thank You Kindly
PS My pig[^] takes 15m to reboot. At least a calendar is not required to measure. I would be happy w/ a 10x speed up. Also I require ergo-keyboard so can not be laptop.

If you know little about hardware, I would not recommend self-assembly of a computer. You are too likely to burn out components by improper handling.
If no pre-assembled computer matches your price/performance constraints, I would recommend finding a local technician of good reputation. Have him/her order the parts for you, assemble the computer, and provide a warranty for the assembly. While this will cost you a bit more than self-assembly, you are more likely to end up with a reliable computer.
