- 10:5110:51, 16 May 2024 diff hist +477 N Glossary:Pig butchering scam Created page with "A "pig butchering" scam is a type of fraud in which a fraudster builds trust with the victim over a period of time, then persuades them to contribute increasing sums, typically to a fake cryptocurrency investment. Once a substantial sum has been collected or when the victim tries to withdraw their "investment", the fraudster becomes uncontactable. South-east Asian "fraud factories" have become a prolific source of such scams, manned by forced labour from human trafficking."

Without it, due to the inevitable variation between cells, some cells might be over-charged with potentially dangerous consequences before others have received their full charge, and some might be over-discharged causing permanent damage while others..." current

SOT-23 is a 3-pin package only 2.9mm long, very commonly used for transistors, voltage regulators and diodes. Other variants have up to 8 pins or have a tab instead of pins on one side, to help conduct heat away." current

There are several variants, including mini-SOIC, SSOP (Shrink SOP - still smaller than SOP), TSOP (Thin SOP - thinner than SOP) and TSSOP (both thinner and smaller)."

It originated in the Netherlands but has since gone global. It has much in common with The Restart Project but is a separate organisation with slightly different emphasis and aims."

It was started in London, offering "restart parties" at which skilled amateur fixers could help members of the public repair their broken electrical and electronic gadgets. It has since gone global and assumed a leading role in campaigning for Right to Repair and related issues. Whilst it shares many aims with Glossary:Repair..."

- 15:4215:42, 3 May 2024 diff hist +431 N Glossary:Downcycling Created page with "Downcycling is recycling where the recovered material is of lower quality than that obtained from primary sources and hence not suitable for more demanding applications. For example, recycled plastic may contain contamination from its previous use and hence cannot be used for food packaging, and steel from scap cars can be used to make steel girders but not high quality engineering steels. Most recycling is in fact downcycling."

It then remains conducting until the current falls below a small holding current. It is similar in operation to a DIAC except for the higher threshold voltage. It has a few niche applications..."
