Curtains drawn on another scale - #scale23x. Thanks again to all the awesome volunteers and speakers who make this happen every year. Y’all are awesome.
Pasadena, I am in you once more. #scale23x
T-minus 40 minutes before I make my way to the airport for #scale23x. Looking forward to this, as always. One of the best conferences, anywhere.
@jorge Fuck yeah. See ya then, buddy. I'll be in town Wed night -> Monday morning.

@jorge Amazing. I’ll buy that when it comes out. Thanks for sending it along. ;)

Hey, you gonna be at #scale23x next week?

Booked the trip to #scale23x. Already looking forward to it. 😃

@Sun_Ultra10 I've never attempted a recap project in my life. I haven't soldered anything in 30 years, either, though I used to be decent at one point.

Is there a service I can send these boards to, or should I attempt it myself? Thanks.

@Sun_Ultra10 Good luck. I’ve just resurrected an SE as well, and while it ran ok for a bit, the screen starts to 'shimmer' and there's a whine when it's been under load a bit. I think it needs an analog board recap, but haven't dug into it any further yet. I've worked on all manner of old systems, but the compact Macs eluded me til recently. Still learning.
@wklj Aw, I was over there at lunch today, but missed the "real" rainbow. That's a great shot!

This German meme was just brought to my attention and I feel obligated to reshare it here

Frohe Weihnachten
