[ot][spam][crazy] The Trials of Controlling a Programmer

[Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many]

Looks like the component i'm guessing is smoking is

-- a big diode intended for surge protection or something. Some of the
amperage columns in the datasheet mention low values, microamps and
milliamps.

This isn't really what I'm prepared to diagnose. I didn't learn a lot
of electronics before going crazy. I wish I had some idea what caused
it to fail.
