i used to break into my own house as a kid through a missing deadbolt hole like that, so watch out if your enemies have skinny children, or are skinny children

neat! yeah this thing is like 25 lbs. the CRT shows signs of life but i can't get a trace at all... but i only played with it for a few minutes

Can't exactly be sure, but my best guess is back in the mainframe days the IBM techs would use it to diagnose and repair faulty circuit boards. The building it was stored in (since the 80s lol) has always had a big data center space. Building is redundant now and my employer is trying to sell it.

the IBM-labeled teks seem to have descended from the facts that tek used to make a bunch of special accessories for IBM, and then (i had to check which model) they also made the 453 pretty much specifically because IBM would buy it.

i have a 465 that i got with rollystand for $10 from my university's asset disposal that i got the manual for (and a 2336 i later sold on) and calibrated it and refurbed the lighting and whatever. i got the 465 to service the 319 i got on craigslist.

465 doing the classic Dumb Scope Trick


and back when the 319 was awaiting some filtering caps


i used the 465 mobile a couple of times, then the 2336 mobile a couple of times, and then I spent the $600 to get a surplus Rigol 2072 and while I love using a cro, gently caress carrying them.

also re: adhd brain, I didn’t realise it until uni since secondary was something I never had to study for and then uni brutally destroyed me

I only got the basic highschool leaving certificate, and it took me 3 years of loving around to do that. left high school and went to welding school. worked in a factory for 6 and a half years before going to uni

lol I had NO idea how to study. thank gently caress, maybe much like most of us here, I got by on natural ability and a cees get degrees attitude

it appears to be a "session ale", so presumably something with a low ABV so you can drink like 20 of them in an afternoon

yeah session ales are like 3.5% ABV. all of the calories, two thirds the buzz

all the session ales here still have 5% or so, and as much as I like drinking beer (I drank a solid 4.5 litres last friday night lol) I don’t like hangovers


now I just drink diet lift. it’s got 5% real lemon juice so it’s actually a health drink

yup, poo poo really sucks, i'm jealous of the people that just get a headache or whatever

it gets loving debilitating too, like i get all shaky and people that know me well say they can tell because i apparently even act differently. in college i could polish off a fifth of whiskey and be just fine the next day
