@hungrier If fountain of youth makes me forget what I learned later in life I'll pass. Even if I would get out in time.

Yeah see that's the trick, you're not intended to bathe in it.

Ergo things that work are usable?
You need the logical dual: things that don't work aren't usable.

…in their original context.
A laptop that doesn’t work as a laptop is usable as a paperweight, usable as landfill and just about usable for smacking idiots over the head. YMMV of course.

@Mason_Wheeler Yeah? Incandescent lighting isn't exactly new…
(Now having a surface-mount incandescent light on a circuit board, I guess that might be less common.)

That's not new either. I've seen it before. On an East-European model-aircraft lithium battery charger. Seemed like it was being used as a constant-current supply.

My dad once used his laptop for hammering nails. A working laptop. And it was still working afterwards.

It's not surface-mount; it's through-hole.
Some of the other components are surface-mount, but that resistor isn't. It's pretty chonky, too. It looks like maybe 1/2 Watt. And probably dissipating at least 10x that.

More like 2 watts or more. A typical 1/2 W resistor is no larger (and usually smaller) than the diode that's at the bottom of the picture.

After doing a little research (more fun than working!), I'd guess that diode is probably a DO-41 package; if so, it's between 4 and 5.2 mm long. Comparing the resistor to it, it looks to be about 3x as long as the diode, making it about 12–15 mm long. Axial-lead resistor sizes aren't tightly standardized, but 12 mm would be a little bigger than a typical 1/2 W resistor, and 15 mm is the typical length of a 2 W resistor, so I'll accept your statement.
I deal with what's inside chips like this, not board level components, so I don't necessarily know their relative sizes off-hand.

I care way, way more than anyone should, so I reverse-GISed the image and turns out it's not a real CPU, but a drawing of an imaginary chip meant to illustrate the concept of pins. Source: Tu, Yuen & Gong (2012) DOI: 10.1080/01457632.2012.654445

@acrow The usual citation in a sign like that is

, which translates asCriminal Law
