No sooner did I post above and I get a phone call. It's my woman. (In case you don't know she's NYPD cop) She's in the ER again. Got knocked down again breaking up a fight. This time the injuries are more extensive including hitting her head. In a lot of pain. X-rays pending. She'll call me later with the results. They may keep her overnight.
I may be making a trip down to NYC tonight. Damn.
What, you're still here? Go, man! GO! You know she's worth it!
I had one when the ISA bus was a thing. After that I just google the beep codes or swear at it and throw it in the trash
I still have one. Mine has a flat ribbon cable with an extra 7 segment display on it so you can still see the codes when you can't see the display on the cards. I even have the book that tells me the error codes for various bioses. Biosi? It had its fair use back in the day and I keep it out of a bit of sentimentality.
Mine came with that; I never bothered to install it. I have actually used mine as recently as a couple years ago. I keep it against the day I need to resurrect some prehistoric machine to salvage data. And because I'm a fucking TEAnut, and it's TE.
From a few days ago; EDIT: I did not actually BUY and PAY for the meter until yesterday. I ended up going with eBay store "ValueTronics INT'L." Looks like it shipped today and I am hoping to have it by mid-week! Shout out to ValueTronics for hooking me up.
Congratulations man, that's an awesome bit of kit. And sorry for encouraging your bad habits.
You're not even the least bit sorry. Don't say it when it isn't true!
More Wera screwdriver pr0n, today I received the set with PZ#1 and PZ#2, which I desperately needed.
I'm sold on these screwdrivers. I used to swear by a set of Stanley "FatMax" branded screwdrivers that I keep in my portable tool bag, but these are better made and imo have better ergonomics.
Mmmokayyyy... but what do you need with PoziDriv screwdrivers, except to ruin perfectly good Philips head screws? Do you work in some benighted subterranean shophole on the slopes of Mordor where they still use those evil things?
At the risk of pissing off our English friends that's what you get for owning a Rover.
I’ve owned land rovers and rovers. It’s perfectly justified
Ditto. But hey, still beats a Hummer. Or worse yet, a H
2.
@bd, awesome job on the Racal, well done
Ditto there as well!
That also beats a Hummer... unless its the kind given by your favorite Redhead.

Definitely feeling the blood loss...
