@dog lol you had me thinking there was a preservation reason to store game cartridges in a fridge

@ninjawedding Everyone knows you bake the stuff you want to preserve, you don't refrigerate it

@dog holy crap, I thought that was an offhand comment but now I'm watching someone bake the insides of a Mega Drive cartridge to, uhh...fix solder joints? this is fascinating

@ninjawedding Haha, I was thinking of tape (you can temporarily improve tape with sticky shed syndrome that way) but that works too! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky

@dog neat, that's the first I've heard of sticky-shed syndrome -- those humidity recommendations I've seen from time to time make a lot more sense
