inI finally carry a respirator after what I found in an old food court
What model respirator did you end up getting? Some of the cheap ones don't seal right and let stuff in. A good fit matters more than people realize.

inWhy do people assume coding is magic? Had a coworker ask me to 'hack' the coffee machine.
Yeah, the printer thing is too real. I once spent an hour trying to write a script to auto-reply to boring emails, and it just sent "potato" to my boss. So much for coding magic.

inMy ethical issue with second-hand parts from online auctions
Ever notice how this caution with no-history sellers shows up in other places too? In my experience, it's the same with buying used cars or hiring a handyman, where no reviews means you're taking a big chance. @uma685 is right about trusting that doubt, because I once bought a cheap monitor from a similar seller and it had a huge crack down the middle. It's a pattern where avoiding the unknown saves you from real trouble later.
