Shoutout to the old guy at the supply house who called me out on my multimeter habits
I was checking a compressor in a Sub-Zero fridge and he saw me using the continuity beep without checking actual resistance first. He said 'Kid, that beep lies more than a politician' and showed me a 2 ohm reading on a part I thought was fine. How many of you trust the beep versus always looking at the numbers?

My buddy toasted a board trusting that beep.

Two ohms? That's basically a short!

Tell that to my old amp, @avery_jackson. It thought two ohms was a polite suggestion. Let out the magic smoke during a bass drop. Good times.
