Repair time.. Yep the 1965 Ford Falcon needed some help after 400523 miles. disassemble Well there's your problem... Head gasket said 'see ya' after 100,000 miles or so. So cylinders 3-4 were buddy breathing. So after a lot of cleaning and a trip to the local O'Reilly's, I was able to get it all put back together before the shop closed. drove home just fine.

I use a bureau to store some of my stereo cables. One drawer each for IC's, speaker cable, and power cords. Cleaned out my speaker cable drawer, as well as consolidated some cables I had in my closet.... This - plus 2 other sets not in pic - is extra....Jesuit Christmas, I'm a hoarder! 🙄😄

We're at Other Half for those keeping score at home.

Want to see a truly creepy UK car advert?

It was a real hootenanny

I'm a gay Carpenter. I'm virtually extinct already.

It happened!

Allegedly we will get some monkey time this evening

you need the inputs to ground or pot to zero. balance is o+ to o- offset is either to ground. repeat a couple of times.

I really need to list all of the cables I have acquired, that I no longer have need of. Lots of different adapters too. I might do that soon, and list them for shipping cost. Somebody could be putting them to good use. 90% of my currently used cabling is from Fitz. Love the quality, aesthetic and custom lengths!

Just finished working for the day. Now packing and drinking. Looking forward to see y’all tomorrow!

Lol pabbi1 started this thread.

2-3x is what I wrote in my email that must have been published on a Korean forum Yes..

Fuck off birthday boy!

We have landed.

We're going to get more beer at another Other Half. This one is a couple of blocks away across from Rockefeller Center https://otherhalfbrewing.com/location/rockefeller-center/

Any Monkey spottings?

Soon, we're heading to get some lunch at a restaurant JP picked because it sounds like a porn name. JP, Adrian, Marc a d I are heading out shortly if anyone wants to join. Silky Kitchen https://maps.app.goo.gl/Q6FSBpAosuAwFA4CA?g_st=ic

On the plane! See y’all later!

^ My preferred spot.

What's the phrase, "In California, Snow is what you drive to, not in" ?

FQPF8N80C is still available from radio spares: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/mosfets/1454316 and https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/mosfets/6715326 and https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/mosfets/6715326P KSC5027 might be an alternative to KSC5026 in the longer term - different package TO-220, higher current and wattage BUT different pinout

I watched the entire season of races, know everything that is coming, and yet this show still has me hooked with the unprecedented behind the scenes footage. Netflix does such a good job with this.

Tice just reminded me of this:

Are you saying there were shenanigans?

What a coincidence. I too have been in grease for weeks.

I got back a week ago (there for five weeks), but 7 hours time difference is tough 😴

I wish you have a lot of fun

Let's just meet at Court Street Grocers at 12:30. We can either take the sandwiches to Other Half or we can find a spot nearby to nosh.

I'm sorry to post such distasteful content:

RIP Mark Sandman Yeah, I know, it was 25 years ago...don't care, still miss him...

Feeling pretty awesome, and hoping I can do more..... I got the OK to take an old work laptop, as well as using one of my own. Wiped disks, refreshed OS (Windows 10 Pro OEM for ~$10!), and donated them via a local "Buy Nothing" FB group. One went to a woman who has no computer (does have a Smartphone but not always easy to do a lot on the small screen), and goes to the local library for computer work. Second went to a woman who's husband was just laid off, and they are keeping money tight - don't want to spend anything on even a used laptop right now. So this will help with his job search. I told the work folks who OK'd the one laptop how this turned out, and I'm trying to do more. We have some laptops that come in and are fully written off and removed from inventory. I'm now checking with the CIO and our Legal team, to see if I can do more of these refreshes and donations. Such a nice thing, I love doing this and hoping it can continue....

After several years layoff I have built a KGSShv Carbon which uses boards I had in and 4 Cree sicfets from several years back (luckily). The power supply is KGSShv v8 and the amps Carbon v6. It has been one of the easiest builds because of a different way of making the cases which I have described in Making diy cases, https://www.head-case.org/forums/topic/18892-making-diy-cases/ It is set for 400v supplies and 17mA output stage currents. It does not get particularly hot in a 20o C room, the heatsinks run a max of 40o at the centre. The power supply pass transistors are bolted to the bottom of the case and the case runs pleasantly warm to the touch. The size is 335 W x 314 D x 155 H inc feet. Weight 8.5Kg. (13in x 12.4in x 6.1in, 18.8lb.)

I’m still in Little Rock, seems valid 😢
