i'm really really bad at making big purchases like this, tho honestly it's the same price as a nintendo switch and at least i think i feel a little better spending that amount on a lab tool over a console i'm not going to afford games for

Show thread

talked the iffy seller back down to $1850 and bought it😩 let's hope i don't get buyer's remorse...

it'll be good to have a scope for the lab finally, for troubleshooting retro hw & my own projects... i can already think of uses for it for the sms fm board & ps1 disc calibration

the worst part is that as far as 100mhz 1gsa/s scopes go $1950 is still the cheapest price! so i'm torn between spending a lot of money on a shitty seller or spending even more money on a lesser model like the hantek dso5102p or the rigol ds1102e

god ugh trying to search online auctions for oscilloscopes and there's a neat used owon sds7102 but the seller strung me along deactivating both listings he had for it for $1700 and $1850 only to later relist it for $1950 while i was asking him questions

1. Not all girls and women like cutesy, pink video games.

2. Cutesy, pink video games tell stories about girls and women in the history of gaming, and their historical preservation should extend beyond "This game SUCKS!" YouTube clickbait.

Both can be true. ✌ twitter.com/FemicomMuseum/stat

"It's a cool name" you think to yourself when creating your fursona. Then internally die when no one pronounces it correctly.

Equally wanting to greet someone, but have no idea how to say their name. Help each other out here!

reminder that nonhumanity is not an experience that is set in stone and everyone's path to discovering themselves varies greatly. anyone saying that there's "one true way" is probably someone you don't wanna chill with.

after 10 months employed at a large tech company making my first real salary i keep coming back to the thought that i really wish i could be consistently making even half as much by doing nothing other than pixel art and music

cats are cute but the loud wet noises when they lick themselves in my room is super squick triggering

not even 10am and already getting "happy women's day" from male coworkers like

Episode 5 of Oldie but Moldie Gaming is up. The 90s were a strange strange time, and the Panasonic 3DO was there to document it all.

"the sapphic lesbian flag is bad because the colors clash!" yeah? then why did the queer villain flag crib them

@skirri@twitter.com @jamieson@twitter.com @RWDSU@twitter.com Only workers can call a picket line. This was not called by the workers. It’s not part of the workers strategy. I avoid Amazon anyway but it’s important to listen to the workers demands and not go off of random tweets from unfailingly people

The pro-union Amazon workers are not trying to inflict economic pain on their employer. They’re trying to win a union election. Big difference. An outside boycott could muddy the messaging and open up a bunch of unknowns. If I were part of the union effort I wouldn’t like this.
