An evening well spent...

I have new computer speakers :-)

I got a broken cheap chinese valve amplifier, fixed and tuned it. They didn't use high quality parts and I replaces the capacitors and the output transformer. A pair of broken active Quadral speakers I freed from their terrible digital amps. The subwoofer is an 20 years old Yamaha sub I had lying around and knew I would use it some day.

I don't know why people are satisfied with those infernal Bluetooth speakers where DSPs eat all the nuances when you can have this. One can literally find it in the trash and fix it for little money. Just check out you nearest recycling centre or flee market.

ultrasonic cleaner -- should I try to fix it?

ultrasonic cleaner -- should I try to fix it? - SLRPNK

My ultrasonic cleaner was in the middle of a job, started to get loud, then made a PFFFT sound. I know it was the sound of death. It still gets power and the timer still works but it does not vibrate anymore. So I guess the ultrasonic generator itself died. The most important component. I cannot think of a way to repurpose this thing. So I guess the question is, is it worth it to replace the ultrasonic generator? The answer to that likely depends on compatibility. What are the chances that another ultrasonic generator can be a drop-in replacement? Would they all generally take the same amount of DC or AC power, generally? I am tempted to say not worth it, because the tub is small. If I get my hands on the naked UG component, I wonder if it would make more sense to epoxy that to a bigger tub, like a spare metal sink that I have. BTW, it died under warranty and the vendor did not even want the dead unit back, so they apparently decided itโ€™s not worth it for them to repair, and they would likely have the correct parts on hand.

Fixing a 20-year-old bug in Enlightenment E16.

The editor in chief of this blog was born in 2004. She uses the 1997 window manager, *Enlightenment E16*, daily. In this article, I describe the process of fixing a show-stopping, rare bug that dates back to 2006 in the codebase. Surprisingly, the issue has roots in a faulty implementation of Newton's algorithm!
