inFinally got my moka pot to stop sputtering by preheating the water to 140F
Wait, you preheated the water to 140 degrees? That is wild to me because I always heard you are supposed to start with cold water so the grounds heat up slowly. You are basically flipping the whole method on its head and it worked three times in a row. I have been dealing with that sputtering noise for years and just assumed it was part of the deal with a moka pot. Now I am wondering if all those burnt pots I tossed were my own fault for using cold water this whole time.

in6 hours to sync one drone map in Phoenix, I'm losing my mind
Started out thinking firmware issues were rare, like once in a blue moon. But after three separate projects where the RTK base station just ignored my GCPs, I totally get your pain now. Turns out half the time it was a hidden setting or an old app version, not even the hardware. Spent a whole weekend re-flying a small site because I trusted the first sync and didn't double check the map. Ever since then I verify every georeferenced layer against at least two known points before I pack up the drone.

inWas team 'cold butter for pie crust' until last Saturday
Cold butter is the whole point though. I get the flakes are nice but a pie crust that falls apart the second you cut it is just as bad, if not worse. It sounds like your dough was overworked, not that the butter was the problem.
