Sniff sniff fall in love

(to the tune of the Ouran High School Host Club opening theme)

…. Look who just fixed this transmitter by sniffing it.

Previously, on site, it just wasn’t happy – the power supply wasn’t coming up and it’d report 4500 watts forward and reflect, or it’d start boot looping. Updating the firmware fixed the boot loop, but I still wasn’t getting a proper power on sequence and couldn’t get out of RF mute.

I brought it home, hooked up a dummy load, and Cassie eventually came along and sniffed it.

*click*

It sprung to life.

All hail the tortie tushie!

Silly felines

Oh, you wanna know what happens when you totally spoil an adorable little kitty with all the love and scritchies?

Why hello there

Surprise, it’s never enough. You get yelled at for mooooooore. MOOOOORE!

My butt. It has no hand on it.

Thunderbolts and lightning, very very frightening!

(Won’t you scritch my butt?)

I love this silly little baby so much.

Time to open up the Crayola box again

Heck the rules. Post colorful nonsense.

I’m really pleased with this edit of the KOVR / KMAX STL stick.
Bench top at work

The print up there is by Amara Goldwalker and has a kitty looking out on a neat neon cityscape in it. I have another print of one of her paintings that’ll probably go near my bench at home which has some neon jellyfish action going on in it. I may or may not have gotten her up to this by sending along photos of the jellies doing their thing at the San Francisco aquarium…

Mighty need.

This is probably in Akihabara but would be 100% right at home in any maker/hacker space!!

The following cat is absolute bebby:

Welcome to the Vaporwave Suites

If you look carefully at the texture you can entirely see what I got the colors from. Extra hint: it is…. everywhere throughout this site. :3

I’m gonna have to elaborate more on how utterly cool this old Leader oscilloscope is in a post that’ll require a little more brain foam than I have available right now
very useful feature of the NanoVNA

That’s Fry’s Electronics right before it imploded completely. Even in that sad state it still had more useful products in store than anything in Florida.

Finally… I just randomly scored two Ergotron keyboard/monitor arms. These were $600 new and are just fine aside from some dust and a couple missing screws, washers, and nuts lost when they were removed from service. Guess I now have a solution to the computer taking up too much space on the home workbench!

Peace, Love, Shitposting

Better get in while the $600 general admission tickets last

Neat old drinking fountain in the Coloma Community Center
Cool architectural design, but miss me with that colonizer scum.
Happy marmalade colored bebby

I have yet to get a picture of this because they just both get up, but lately Gingy and Scrappy have been curling up there like a little yin – yang of floofle. So precious.

The SNG truck that wants to try our patience— it just doesn’t wanna finish running all the emissions monitors so it can get a smog check. Supposedly it *only* needs to be driven 400 more miles. Uhhhhhhhhh.
