As a kid on the C64 this load sequence meant top shelf, best of the best. It also meant uncopyable.

awesome ! With the meshtastic mesh you can retrieve messages and access bulletin boards. Reminds me of .... internet. With no service providers. Home-made net.
The state of search in 2024:
Google: "We threw away decades of search knowledge and Internet indexing and just made an answer up "
Bing: "Here's 100 tangentially related pages from 2010 that I only included because your query appears in a tag cloud in the website's footer"
DuckDuckGo: "Here are the Bing results, only with ✨privacy✨"
Reddit: (this user has deleted their entire post history using PowerDeleteMyShit. Fuck /u/Spez)
Yahoo: "Oh thank god, someone's actually using our search engine! No, we're not just Bing!" *frantically trying to cover up the giant Bing sticker* "NO DON'T GO TO GOOGLE!!!!"
Yandex: "Here are all of the Russian-owned resources on this topic. Only Russian sources are trustworthy. Everything else is fake ne—I MEAN, misinformation"
Kagi: "We'll give you what Google used to give you for free, for the low low price of $10/month!"
Ask.com: [hoarse screaming and clawing noises can be heard from the ground beneath a headstone that says "Here lies Jeeves: 1996-2006"]

So I feel like this should be obvious, in general, but it's a good, strong move to use your normal choice of cleaner (LA's, Simple Green, Super Clean, 99% IPA) to get most of the paint off, and reserve a special bottle of paint blitzer for the hard to clean bits.
On the other hand, I have cleaned like fifty minis in these two glass jars (using about 2/3 of my half liter supply) and they are still going super strong.
