@theru CLACK!

Yahoo finance just popped up a "We've updated our privacy terms" window.

I've never ever signed in! Oo

@timttmy Yes, I still do this. Although these days I Youtube for Band WholeAlbum. ;)

@timttmy Yep, I always liked Portishead. This just got me thinking to the early 90's. How was I listening to music then?

I had a CD deck in my car. And at home a 5 CD player I could load up and hit 'shuffle'. :P

Kids these days with there iThingys and Spotificationizer Apps!

@theru @timttmy The movie? I've seen it. But, its been years!

@timttmy Ha I expected some type of metal band with a name like that not some acid jazz/trip hop type stuff.

Ha, I was watching a youtube video that says its in my county. As soon as I heard the guy say, "off"... yep, he's from here.

I think I've tracked down the faulty chip in this wonky Fluke 87-3.

Now, who needs what so I can pad up the Digikey order to make it worth shipping one single IC. :P

What the heck has Reddit done. Oo

@xmanmonk Yep, I use them or Mouser for one off, specific, parts. But, I can't just buy one little thing... I fill the cart with stuff till the shipping charge makes sense. ;)

There is a video out there of one of their warehouses, the stock, and the automation.

I'm still working on the screwed up Fluke 87-3. I don't think its analog. So, I'm starting to identify the chips. I just came across the TrueRMS converter that adds $100 to to a Fluke's price. They are only $5.65 in bulk! :P
