Somehow, I doubt Amazon has fields in its database for Praenomen, Gens, and Cognomen.

You're right - they'd just be "name1", "name2", "name3", and so on!

I just got a job doing it. I didn't expect it, I wasn't looking for it. It happened because I posted an article on Arduinos here.
I wasn't sure I should take it for reasons having to do with me working in the field in general, but I've decided to go for it. It would be silly for me to turn down an opportunity that fell in my lap, and I figure maybe the universe is telling me I've had my break from professional development and it's time. Besides, coding adafruits, ESP32s and all that mess sounds like fun.

And if you are stuck, can ask in QA
Best of luck, and have fun!

Why not?
some interesting questions would be welcome... and a damned needed distraction from the usual ones

That's fair. It's just if I'm stuck asking in the QA forum it's anyone's guess whether anyone would be able to answer. That's like not even plan C for me. More like plan Q.

I know exactly what you mean
Not only if anyone will be able to answer (which of course there will be people who probably knows what you need), but if they will see the question

I don't know if you have noticed but Tom's Hardware has a quite a bit of stuff on R-Pis and related things : Raspberry Pi Articles | Tom's Hardware[^]. They might prove useful.

Not only with RasPi... that web has proven very useful in other topics too

I did a stupid thing just an hour ago...cleaning the pool with my phone (a newer LG) tucked loosely in a hoodie pocket, doing some deep knee bends to get exercise from a boring chore, when 'bloop!'. Luckily it was the shallow end. It took about a second for it to hit the bottom, a second to register wte just happened, and around 2 seconds to jump in jeans, shoes, hoodie and all and go dunking, hoping for a miracle...maybe it's not hosed! 
Anyhow, I managed to get it out pretty quickly and it seems just fine. It was needing a charge before it went swimming, but I'm holding off plugging anything into it for awhile. Currently it's sitting ports down over the top of a server exhaust fan.
The weird thing is that I actually saw this event take place before it happened but thought, 'nah, it won't fall out...you're crazy'.
I've used the 'bowl of rice' trick on a previous phone which had suffered the fate of being secured in a hoodie worn by an idiot working on a pressurized hot water tank. Maybe hoodies and cell phones are just a bad idea! That said, I'm still not sold on the back pocket as a safe place for a phone either. It's probably just a matter of time before the whole thing (phone, communicator, whatever) is a wearable, waterproof chip or for those more adventurous types an implant. 
After a half-hour I finally plugged it in and it is taking juice. I just got really lucky.
Oh, and to keep the comedy going, I slogged my way through the house to the master bathroom to get out of the soaking wet clothes. At that very time, the dog started going crazy as the maid crew made their way in. The wife is away attending to a brand new grandson and forgot to tell me they were coming. Well at least I've given them a head start on mopping the floors!

I think most phones have been vetted via the toilet test (from what I hear).

I also have both a maid and a wife. That makes two of us!
