Ah, yes, the IBM PC's grand entrance into the chaotic '80s tech bazaar—like a monocle-wearing gentleman waltzing into a mosh pit. 🤓💻 Apparently, the article was published in 2026, suggesting technology historians are now time travelers. 🚀 Ready your flux capacitors, folks!

So with my recent #disastrous experience with #Uber #Eats, it looks like I have to file a #chargeback with my credit card company to get my refund. If you missed the previous episode of Support Disasters: purchase through website, but refunds only through the app, which I can't use, because I don't have a cell phone.

I thought you used to be able to dispute a merchant charge on the phone, but I don't seem to have that option today. I have to submit a dispute by postal mail - or by fax 🤣 .

I'm guessing the procedure for "submit a dispute by fax" goes like this:

1. Time-travel back to 1994 when fax was relevant.
2. Submit form by fax.

Fun.

Most of the time I can avoid insects. I even plan for them when I can. I have fly screens to keep the flying ones out of the house and sticky stuff to catch them if they sneak in. I regularly clean floors and bedding, and I use extendable dusters to clear corners and ledges of spider webs.

Today, though, I encountered two unfamiliar bugs. The first revealed itself when I was on my patio. I noticed that one of my potted plants was housing lots of small white bugs, or nests, or cocoons on the underside of lots of leaves. I didn’t know what they were, so I took a couple of pictures.

A Google search suggested mealybugs, but I wasn’t convinced. The mealybug pictures weren’t quite the same as the thing I was looking at, but they were pretty close. Given my doubts and lack of insect-awareness, I decided the bugs had to go. I donned some of the latex disposable gloves that I had bought during the pandemic and went out to strip that plant of infested leaves. Once I started turning branches upside down, though, I realized the problem was bigger than I had thought. Stripping leaves would not be sufficient. I had to prune whole branches.

I clipped away at that plant (which I inherited from the previous owner and still cannot identify) and I removed most of the lower branches. Once I had filled a large Ziplog bag with bugs and branches, I thought my work was done.

What I had not anticipated, however, was the hour-long cringing spine-chilling that comes with bug-association. The shivers stayed with me much longer than I would have thought. Then, just as I thought I was over it, I looked out of the living room window and realized I had missed some bugs. As the sun shone on that darned plant, I saw that I had missed a few.

By this time, though, I was mad. Bug-shivers be damned. I was going to annihilate those beasts. I took up my garden hose, turned the dial to an insect-defying jet, and sprayed it on the undersides of those renegade leaves. I had to hold my ungloved fingers under the leaves to reach my goal, but ultimately all the white bugs were gone.

Then, as I sat in my recliner revelling in my glory, I saw a centipede crawl out from under the couch. How dare it! I am ready for you, centipede! No creepy-crawly shivers going on now. I am getting you out of here!

I pulled a file folder off my shelf and scooped that creepy thing up faster than a centipede can crawl. It actually paused in shock for a moment, but then I flung it out of my living room onto my patio so fast it thought it had entered a new dimension.

It hasn’t experienced Back to the Future, exactly, but that bug has now joined the same universe as the remains of those insects I ejected from my patio plant. I hope they find a bug DeLorean to take them away from here. Otherwise I may have to take more drastic measures. I’m working on the flux capacitor as we speak.

Current bench project: converting this old RCA Victor into a web radio/DLNA renderer (ie. Chromecast-type streaming receiver). #DLNA already works.

The little dingi in front of it are test prints to hold rotary encoders, and they need to fit snugly into the holes in the radio.

The three knobs will control on/vol, radio tuning, and #FluxCapacitor (low-pass filter for year of music's release)

An interesting design. As we all know, that's the most important thing about time machines! Who wants to travel in a pear shape? 🍐

I would also need a zipper machine like that. lol

My #timemachine has too little air in the tires and the MOT* has expired. But I saved money back then because I simply installed a cool #bucket instead of an outdated #fluxcapacitor or something like that.
