Do Americans use the word "niggle"?

I recently posted on a car forum about some niggles with my wife's Fiat.

I received a response from a USA forum member that sort of suggested that the word "niggle" could be misinterpreted.

So my question is, do Americans use the word "niggle" to describe small, annoying, persistent problems, or do they avoid this word due to its vaguely similar phonetics to the "n word"?

The possibility of some confusion between these two words has never crossed my mind before.

My Swap on Yoroi Wallet is Stuck - What happens if I cancel, do I lose a bunch of ADA?

If I cancel this swap on my Yoroi wallet, will I lose 298ADA?

I've started the cancel procedure on my Ledger, but I am asked to sign the transfer of 298 ADA for some reason.

I was originally trying to swap 1396 NIGHT tokens into ADA.

Edit: So ChatGPT came to the rescue. I was able to cancel the swap, and I wasn't hit with a 292ADA fee. The 292ADA figure came up due to the way Cardano works with UTxOs.

Seems a little confusing to me, but hey ho, all sorted now.

Every day is a school day.

I'm thinking of dipping my toe into the world of solar, and thought I'd start with an 800W plugin set-up.

From what I can gather, I'll be lucky to pay for the system in less than three years if I buy an EcoFlow bundle, so I thought I'd try and find teh parts separately and save on the initial outlay.

I really like the EcoFlow App, so I will buy one of their micro-inverters. I might even buy one when I'm in France in a few weeks to save a few quid there.

My question is, can I plug other brands' panels into the EcoFlow micro inverter?

Do all panels connect to the micro-inverter with the same cables/connectors?

And, I've heard of people finding heavily discounted panels from installation firms that have slight cosmetic damage. Is this true, and if so, can anyone advise me on how to go about exploring this possible avenue?

Many thanks in advance.
