Taking a little break after ~6 hours of refurbishing/repairing datasettes. So far, 3 out of 3 1531s (the grey ones) work fine again and I even managed to load Cobra on the one that had a "Cobra" Dymo label on it… 😅 #InTheLabDoingStuff

Capacitorps. #InTheLabDoingStuff

Listening to #AngineDePoitrine (!) while soldering some cables for my Hifi. I’ve settled for Amphenol ACPR RCA plugs and Sommer Cable Onyx as my go-tos for non-audiophile-bs high quality. (Didn’t have any proper colored plugs left so red heatshrink tubing is going to have to do.) #InTheLabDoingStuff

Amiga 3000T power supply. Hefty.

The #Amiga3000T restoration continues. Successfully pulled the 68882 FPU and cleaned up the corrosion underneath. Still some traces to fix and vias to bridge but I have high hopes that it’s going to boot at some point. #InTheLabDoingStuff

SNEStoration going on. #InTheLabDoingStuff

Turned out to be one of the (kind of rare) cases where it actually sounds significantly clearer and more powerful after replacing the caps and adjusting it correctly! Nice. #NAD7020e #InTheLabDoingStuff

Recapped and readjusted the #NAD7020e today. Meditation Beta style. #InTheLabDoingStuff

Did some Amiga 600 updates and upgrades today and made it run more stable again (I hope). #InTheLabDoingStuff

Didn’t get much else done today, but I successfully modded and updated my (outdated) #OSSC. #InTheLabDoingStuff

VIC-20 repair going on in the lab tonight. #InTheLabDoingStuff

Gotta love how all professional grade equipment is designed to be easily serviced. (Well, at least audio gear from the 1990s). Very easy to get to everything major, top and bottom casing come off with a few screws (in proper brass inserts!), all important components and wires are labeled, driver chips are socketed. Neat. #InTheLabDoingStuff

My main repair project for today was my bicycle (the rear tire recently disintegrated completely, replaced it with a new one now). Next electronics project is this HH Electronic (now HH Audio) power amplifier from the mid 1990s. It’s likely still okay, just an inspection & clean. #InTheLabDoingStuff

Current status: having my butt kicked by this green screen #Amiga500 board. #InTheLabDoingStuff #Amiga #Commodore #RetroComputing #VintageComputing #Repair

Another #Commodore64 board appeared on the workbench. Quite a few obvious faults (apart from the missing chips). I’ll see what I can do. 😅 #InTheLabDoingStuff

Finished product. #InTheLabDoingStuff #RetroGaming #OSAStick

Progress so far. #InTheLabDoingStuff #RetroGaming #OSAStick

I‘m going to build an open source joystick today. Pretty excited about this project, the website for it is here: https://www.osa-stick.com #InTheLabDoingStuff #RetroGaming #OSAStick

Working on a replacement timer for my EPROM ERASER. Uses a TM1637 LED display, a little piezo buzzer for audible feedback, a 5V relay to switch the ERASER and a rotary encoder to set the countdown. It's going to have some fancy features in the end, like saving the last time set to the EEPROM in the Arduino and stuff. The code needs a lot of optimizations but I'm happy with how far I got. Also couldn't resist briefly displaying "bE7A" on startup... 😅 #InTheLabDoingStuff https://youtu.be/YX8TaoQqPpc

I built a C264 Magic Cart (which is a Magic Desk style cartridge for the C16/116/Plus4 which can access up to 2MB of software from EPROMs). It’s very cool indeed!

I heard Annihilation was about grief or relationships. I'm interested af in Scavenger's Reign.

I feel like we have a rough indentation / substructure of how we will process things from birth, but that every event thereon will shape it further.

As well, we know ourselves in reference to others: "I'm like A, not like B, but most like C. What lies beyond C? I might see myself reflected best over there."

"Rules do not exist to bind you; they exist so you may know your freedoms."
Parameters outline a given environment within which to experiment and explore. It's one antidote to Blank Page Syndrome, for example.

I have to disagree entirely about personifying the automated house in There Will Come Soft Rains (fantastic name), but otherwise yes. This is exactly my understanding.

It's also a good description of why I feel so confused by others.
People tend to feel more secure (than I do) in their identities as individuals, group members, and (neurotypical / neurodefault / neurorigid) humans.

Spontaneously decided to rip apart my shoddy EPROM eraser today and modify it a bit (the timer stopped working ages ago so I removed it completely for now). #InTheLabDoingStuff
