Any of y'all know what's going on with this resistor? Brown black gold gold black is a bit unusual. From what I've found I'm pretty sure it's a 1 ohm resistor (±5%), but I'm unsure about that last black band. From what I've found, it's either the temp. coefficient, the reliability, or it's telling me it's a wirewound resistor. Given this is a generic 5V power supply, I *think* it's the last one, but can anyone confirm?
Like, here's the circuit board and the case. It could totally take a USB outlet, but didn't. I wonder why? Cost, perhaps? I mean, it was a cheap phone. But this seems a little much. I don't know. But, I'll see if I can't fix it up later

I'd also like to remind you of this thing I made a few months ago
So, earlier, I had the idea to try putting mouthwash in an Rx bottle. Lo and behold, it was brilliant. Then, I thought it might be a good idea to put that in a bigger bottle, to prevent spills. Unfortunately, the bigger bottle was just a bit too small. I forced it, and now it's stuck.
Folx, I have an IQ of 135 (WISC-IV), high enough to almost be classed "genius". Don't ever let anyone convince you IQ is a meaningful measure of intellect. It's not.
Inspired by mavi, I figured I'd do this year retrospective in selfies!
...
Unfortunately, I'm not much of one for selfies. I cannot find any selfies from the first half of the year, and I really only have four I can find for the year total. So, You'll have to settle for the past 5 months.
July, August, October (31st!), November
