silly me for expecting quality control on a 300 gbp piece of professional equipment

my oscilloscope stopped working inexplicably today showing no signs of life whatsoever

i decided to ignore the "no operator serviceable parts inside" warning and went to look over the power supply board

the AC in header was not at all soldered to the board. i have no idea how this scope worked for years until now

society if the amiga and the dreamcast hadn't languished and died

panasonic rk-p400c #plottermastodon #plottertwitter

yeah i have one. no it's not good

i wanted a more permanent solution to the true RS232 to USB adapter my panasonic RK-P400C typewriter plotter needed so i shoved everything as best as i could into a DB25 shell

"i bet it doesn't even work"

ok here's my proof of work. i didn't want to bother with cradles for my #handspring #visor #pda so i put a factory-looking #miniusb #port on it for #hotsync

ok here's my proof of work. stealth modchip installed in PS1 that isn't one of the any motherboards that's properly documented (that i've found). the modchip is custom burnt on an attiny

ok here's my proof of work. i converted a PAL-M 2600 clone to NTSC composite with scrap parts

ok here's my proof of work. i serviced my amiga 600 featuring a previous owner's exploded badly replaced capacitor with several keyboard controller traces destroyed

i recovered some old files

i made this a while ago following a fairly specific conversation/mocking of what a metaverse is. i'm still proud of it

cradles are for losers #handspring #visor #pda

not my finest work by a long shot but i'm getting stuff done again

hey whyd you take a picture of them like this

properly defined guides and standards like these are why not only floss but any graphic-design-is-my-passion "material" "design" UI will never beat windows 95
