Nothing is more permanent than a temporary electrical fix

Especially if sacred seal of blue electrical tape is stamped there.

Nothing is more permanent than a temporary fix in most other contexts as well.

Order the parts, get told they're on backorder for 3 months, finally get told they don't make the part anymore.

My bass had a completely unused pickup for like a year because I can't be arsed to figure out how to wire it in a way that makes any sense. Good thumbrest though.

Being in a state of having a currently working machine with replacement parts on hand for the most likely failure isn't what I would consider rake in face, unless the "fix" adds a safety liability.

Nah, it's partially working and the parts I ordered was to bring it back into full functionality.

There are 2 fuse circuits in my microwave, one for if you run just the microwave and a high load one for if you run the microwave AND the vent fan on high

The fuse for the first blew, so the work around is needing to turn the fan on before microwaving anything lmao

Having just replaced one, it's honestly not that bad, but it is nice to have a second pair of hands cause it's so heavy. There's a couple bolts on top, then you just tilt it forward and pick it up off the bracket
