1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Apologies for the apparently low volume and low tone of voice - I think someone might have been tired. This episode discusses ongoing PCB failures, oscilloscope overdrive recovery, a BT-enabled headphone that would just keep connecting, some local events (GLOW, Awesome Space repair day, and the HCC Retro quarterly meeting). Finally, an experiment gone out of control resulted in a small PCB for generating colour effects for 4 connected VGA monitors. Ruby is used as &quot;effect description language&quot;.
