on the other hand, my 3b1 (and my vcr) both went crasy during a very
cold period during which i wore a lot of synthetics and generated a
lot of static electricity. i got kernel parity errors just from
brushing the keyboard (and my vcr clock stopped several times just
from touching the case.)

is this common in dry climates (near 0% humidity.)
