    People really thought their routers running on 12V/2A would catch on fire at night?

      When raspis came out like 12 years ago, I was still in my teenage years, and I wanted to keep one on the network. My mother was fucking terrified because it generated heat.

      5V 1A means nothing to these people and no amount of facts will shut them up. Some people just inherently fear the unknown. Mixed with willful ignorance, it can be an infuriating combo.
