My instant pot just gave up on me last night halfway through cooking a chicken stew. Do you stick with one appliance or keep a backup plan?

I fixed a stuck shutter on an old Nikon F3 by using a drop of lighter fluid on the pivot, which felt wrong but worked.

Consider the long game for your gear. A full suit traps heat and wears out faster from all that extra washing after you sweat through it. Letting fabric breathe sometimes beats a total seal.
