What's Wrong With This Picture?

[NickC]

Ouch!

[xtian]

I think the burning skin is only the most obvious wrong thing about this image.

[LeeMo]

Robot soldering. She can't feel it.

[Leo_Gnardo]

It's a soldering pencil. So you hold it like a pencil, right?

Obviously posed, the iron's not on. Or we would be seeing smoke. And she wouldn't look so concentrated. Nice blouse! Probably not a line worker, more likely from the front office or central casting.

That's Natalie Portman (or Kiera Knightley, I can't tell the difference ) in the new thriller "PCBmageddon".

In this scene, she is using a highly classified data probe to extract the nuclear codes from this ICBM launch control computer.

Or maybe not...

Stupid question from someone who doesn't work on PCB really...wouldn't you use your iron on the other side of the board? This seems like a recipe for roasted components...aside from the aforementioned roasted fingers.

I'm concerned her laser-safe goggles won't protect her from solder radiation.

Also, it looks like she's soldering in the bio lab, which is strictly forbidden. Gonna have to write this up, sorry.

[Teleguy61]

I think we need to refer this one to HR.

ESD protection? Pretty fancy board to not have your smock and wrist strap.

[JazzGuitarGimp]

No to mention, that iron looks a little overpowered for the task at hand. NPI...

[Structo]

Look out for green lasers!

[67plexi]

Think she can cook.....

[TUBEDUDE]

No flesh damage, she's obviously a repurposed sex robot.

[strelok]

Hmm don't see anything wrong....oh wait! Wheres her solder?

[stelligan]

She has a wedding ring on. Soldering chicks don't get the guys.....
