hacker spaces are a waste of time

the overhead involved in letting any old idiot use your gear basically means you can't have any of the good things that "hacking" really requires in 2014, no fancy logic analyzers, no fancy board heaters

you are geared to cut holes in acrylic and maybe CNC a cut, solder some dead bug circuits and pray someone doesn't harvest what few decent components you have lying around

Well maybe you should have thought about these things before you pinned me down on a table and began unzipping my pants without any permission at all, refusing to stop even after I froze in fear asking what the gently caress you were doing. You seemed to be high on cocaine or something, which initially allowed me to excuse the behavior. It wasn't until other people made me realize this wasn't just a one off incident that I decided to report what had happened. I recall you making creepy sexual comments about others way before this incident too, so looking back now I don't find what happened surprising and I probably could have prevented being violated.

iawtp. i think they have /a/ logic analyzer there (but idk how decent it is or if they even have the fancy leads for it or anything) but aside from that i think i have a better lab setup in my bedroom, lol

yeah if I had a fancier iron and a nice board heater w/ heat gun I would be set

please expand on this story

okay im trying to remember much about it

we got there late like 9pm or something, my weird friend at the time was like "ayy lets check out this hacker space thing called noise bridges ITS REAL COOL". we come in and it's in an "eh" part of town for SF, we hop in the freight elevator and up we go. lots of peeling paint and project-esque low grade building antiquities. you walk into the space and at a glance it's pretty cool, there's couches and bins of random poo poo you can pull from to work on your dumb arduino fart detector, there's a doorway to an area with some work benchy tool things, a modest kitchen, hard wood floors and lots of peoples goofy little projects dangling all around the space, a crappy desk with some pcb-working stuff (poo poo rear end old logic analyzer, cutting mats, solder, irons, etc).

a man types furiously on the couch, sighing and pulling in harsh breaths on occasion, fake chortling to himself as he scans over some condescending battle he is fighting on the internet. an old man covers his eyes with a sleep mask which he has put some RGB leds into so that they slowly phase between colors, the man is adamant that this greatly changes how your brain waves work when you sleep (here's a hint: it doesn't). despite his banal invention he had a small cabal of interested, furrow browed groupies, trying it on and nodding enthusiastically when the man explained his notions.

we pulled apart a 12x80 led sign that we brought along with us as part of our mission to make it do something besides turn on and sit quietly. no model numbers on any pcbs lead us anywhere on the internet. it has a zilog z80 on it and two rj11 ports. the logic analyzer is busted and there's not a lot you can do at this point without a proper scope, a salae analyzer, some tools to dump the rom of the z80 and skim through the relatively simple assembly, we had no modem with us and the space had none either. our effort to be elite hackers was a wash.

everyone i talked to was stressed the gently caress out about something going on RIGHT NOW, or pestered me a little about my presence. "do you have a sponsor? who did you come here with?"

it was dumb

the only accept acceptable ways to reheat pizza is broiler oven or toaster oven. if you are in the wilderness or something I guess you can use cast iron pan over a burner

the last option is the only correct one

the heat dries out the crust again and also recooks the upper layers through the cheese, this will take the reheated za from "alright" to "nice!!"

Protip given to me from accomplished EEs:

keep a friend around when working around any power supplies that can readily kill you, especially DC because unlike AC; DC can make your muscles involuntarily grip tighter and leave you unable to disengage

AC shocks you but doesn't paralyze your body during the experience, you are given the opportunity to jump back
