Retired parkie, not quite so retired fire aviation specialist. All thoughts and comments my own. Once took a photo.
Not sure if you have read these, Stephen J Pyne @sjpyne.bsky.social has two books on fire history in Aus, Burning Bush, and Still Burning Bush. Really worth reading about fire suppression, Royal Commissions, etc. The last book The Pyrocene is worth a read as well.

A tip of the sustainable cap to @frame.work My Framework 13 laptop developed a fan/heatsink fault. In very quick time, the fault was diagnosed, and a replacement heatsink/fan unit arrived.
Framework's thing is ease of repair/upgrade, the fan swap took me five minutes. Try that with Apple/Dell etc.
