      IO shields are more or less built into the board these days

      LMAO, I was just digging in a box of parts leftover at my folk’s house the other day and got sliced on my fingertip, it felt so sharp I thought for sure somehow a razor blade had gotten in there.

      Nope, it was one of those fuckers

    Is it still possible to desolder and replace those connectors if needed? Like, did they just grind down the joints?
