I need to find an "Android APK reversing for complete morons" guide.

Found a parcel the Amazon guy abandoned last night. Turns out he marked it as "handed to resident". Used the CCTV to find where he left it. What's stranger is the footage.

He rapped his knuckles gently on the door, read the sign saying "use the doorbell"... then wrote on the parcel:
"NO DOORBELL. NO CONSENT TO SPY CAMERA. MAGNA CARTA."

...seriously?!

I don't know whether it's being an engineer or being a sad old fart, but I've got a lot of respect for people who work in civil engineering with stuff this size.

@whitequark What kind of probes are you using for that? I've had trouble finding QFP probes which don't fall off.

@whitequark This is extremely cool and makes me want one of these...!

@whitequark Second-source of the Maxim part?

That phase of "Spring cleaning" where you think about putting the whole lot in the skip.

That phase of Spring cleaning where you look at the shelving and go: "well, this needs sanding back and a couple of cans of Hammerite"

Shelf sides look much better after a bit of attention from the angle grinder

I think I might be able to make a 3D printed bracket to go in here and take a plank of wood. But I also happen to know that timber comes in this size!

Shop-shelving feet painted (to hide the rust). One can of Hammerite gone, two THICC coats. It doesn't last long.

Two coats of Rustoleum DTR silver and these look like new

Reassembly in progress...

The classic BBC Micro monitor

I need to get these databooks scanned, but I also need to see if @bitsavers has beaten me to it

Old PC, also in need of Hammerite. I might get a can of the hammertone stuff and see how it looks.

This big pile of Teletext stuff needs sorting out.

One for @Sonic2k

I winced at the sight of this.

Oh no.
