@tubetime had to read it three times because I really got stuck at thinking like what the hell is a “heaLthkit” calculator 😆 @tubetime I heard you like cards, so I put a card on your card so you can card while you card caution: radiation from polonium is dangerous if the said material is ingested or inhaled. do not @tubetime Might come in handy in the next decades! Just keep it generally below 2. extra long life battery. put in service before Feb 1943. think it's still good? @tubetime oh, DANG! A logarithmic current meter?! That’s amazing! I mean, 10k mA is … carry the two… 10A, so not too scary. But the log scale is AMAZING. @tubetime "Well, either the battery's good or we've got a problem, it's too soon to tell..." @tubetime My wife and I were discussing the other day that VLB is what truly killed 16-bit computers. @tubetime envious, that’s like a 3 episodes of YouTube videos hour long each ! @tubetime *sniff* Where they'll finally find the actual number for Pi and the square root of -1. @tubetime I think that says "solid material" not "said material". Although I wonder what distinction the word might be trying to make. Is it safe to inhale and eat the dust? Or should we vaporize it first? :-) Yikes. @tubetime @tubetime I also have bunch of such gauges. Not sure what to do with them, but maybe hook them up to Home Assistant to display some important data. @tubetime I wonder if there is some award if you can use all those plugs at once @tubetime that's an interesting time point. It both has inputs for multiple VCRs, and optical digital audio. @tubetime why have a floppy to store configuration for restoring connection after power outages when you can have a post it taped to the case instead @tubetime @tubetime After seeing this, I hopped on ebay and found one... it just arrived with its boot #floppy, so I dumped it, since I couldn't find any others online: https://archive.org/details/netblazer-pn2-uunet-boot Seems to be a standard FAT-formatted floppy, at least! Hopefully any credentials still on it are long expired in the past 30 years... the URLs aren't any good (and they seem to predate the Wayback Machine!) |
