I'm in the same boat. For the sake of simplicity find some good brands and stick to them. Where I live its simple, get all your bulbs at IKEA. Most of them are 90 CRI and other parameters are good too. There are better ones on the mark

Try to look for jobs in edtech. To be able to use a software in a US classroom its a hard requirement to be accessible, so edtech companies are always on the lookout for a11y engineers.

Heh I would not call them paranoid after all these crypto collapses. Say I'd have $100000 in a crypto wallet, I'd etch it too and keep it in a safe instead of giving it to a website with no state backed guarantees.

There are 2 issues: 1. They don't sell this coupler as a part. I could get one from abroad for like $7+postage and wait weeks for it. 2. This plastic crap is glued to the motor shaft. I might deform the shaft while trying to fix it.

Yep, its one of these, but 3D printing will not work here. The original part is some kind of injection molded, ABS or PC with 5-30% glass fiber content. In other words a very strong type of plastic, which was not strong enough for the job.
