@squirrel I love all the crazy things they used to add to their watches

For a start they basically invented the smart watch, they had watches that could pick up when your phone was going to ring and vibrate on your wrist, they had some with touch screens, some could control your tv and vcr, some you could play games on, some would work as a pedometer and count calories burned

All well before 2000

This looks neat

alert: @squirrel

@squirrel that's a very fair point, I'd be using it for "hey, is that a signally thing coming out of there? OOOH WAVY LINES! IT'S A SIGNAL!" because quite frankly I don't understand electronics any deeper than that

And oh, a grand for a good one... yeah, I'll add that to the list of reasons I don't have one

@squirrel ah, shame

probably be better than nothing though and sod paying hundreds of pounds for a fancy one I'm going to use for 20 minutes once in a blue moon

@squirrel I'd say give it a try anyway, if it works with the new caps then you've saved a lot of effort, if it doesn't then you're out a few caps at most

@squirrel speaking of oscilloscopes, I've seen these around https://www.banggood.com/DSO138-DIY-Digital-Oscilloscope-Kit-SMD-Soldered-13803K-Version-With-Transparent-Acrylic-Housing-p-1051616.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN

No idea if they're any good but might be worth a punt if you're ever in massive need of an oscilloscope

@squirrel I'd give it a shot if you've got the capacitors easily available

@squirrel MAPLE THIS IS MAIN!

@catgirl *offers substitute octo-pats*

@catgirl @noelle yeah, unfortunately I, like most cephalopods, have resting bitch face

@noelle @catgirl when I'm angry the tank is a Challenger 2

@catgirl not in the slightest and I'm sorry if I've ever given that impression

@Jo do they still have the bus?

@Miffy@awoo.space @cassolotl@dev.glitch.social Personally I just think NT people are weird as hell

People can be all kinds of bizarre from an NT's point of view and I don't think of them as any weirder than the NTs are

@squirrel *imitates beepy noises*

It's always fun learning new languages
