Dang. That sucks, especially with it all clearing away as soon as the show was over.

I was pleasantly surprised down here in Dallas. Sky got progressively cloudier until about ten minutes before the main event, when it suddenly cleared up. That said, as frustrating as it was not knowing in advance, "partly sunny" was a hilarious forecast for a solar eclipse.

Don Quixote did a final debug pass after the manual was written.

So am I supposed to bet it all or the 49ers or Taylor Swift? How is Taylor Swift even going to win the Super Bowl without a team of clones? Is she even supposed to play? Are there really 49 of the 49ers? I'm so confused!

I tried to be an optimist, but I misheard and turned into a red truck.

Well, there's the lawyer that had ChatGPT do his legal research. He got in a lot of trouble for citing made-up cases.

They will experience more than zero zaps.

So you're saying I should use Zero Zap to test?

The Geneve is now an accelerator card!

Reminder: ChatGPT is not a search engine, nor is it a reliable source of information. To my knowledge, there are no "accelerator cards" for the 99/4a. And I'm reasonably sure the "300 kilohertz" thing is equally bullcrap(though there is truth in the 4a's architecture restricting performance)

In before an entire warehouse of 'em shows up in an estate sale!

TI did build a very robust system. The problem, as I understand it, with the RIFA capacitors is they were manufactured with a plastic shell. Over time that plastic has gotten brittle and developed microfractures, and there's no way to tell if those fractures have exposed the interior of the capacitor to the exterior environment yet. If they have, humidity from the air can short out the capacitor and the capacitor goes bang and catches fire.

You will still need cartridges.

That's how it used to be in Texas. Shortly before "the tollway" paid itself off, they changed the rules to allow the operators to, I believe, engage in creative bookkeeping to hide the tollroad being paid off. Shortly afterwards, a metric buttload of toll projects all started. I hate it. DEATH TO THE TOLL ROADS! A POX UPON THE NTTA!
