A high contrast, black and white photograph framed within a thin white border. Centered in the midground, a modern glass paneled bus shelter stands brightly illuminated by low angle sunlight, making its translucent frosted panes glow against the shadows. Faint graffiti tag lettering is visible on the central rear panel of the shelter. The background is dominated by the dark silhouettes of residential buildings and trees against a clear sky. In the deep shadow of the foreground, a paved road stretches horizontally, fronted by grass and three dark wooden bollards.

And it's kaput. Parts needed to repair are not available anymore (too old and not made any more). And it needs the big expensive parts. New one ordered, just means further delays in printer acquisition 😞

So the washer is not working right. And my back is still not 100% and now I get to see if I can diagnose it without straining it all over again. This is what started the whole saga. Replacements are not inexpensive 😞

And so far almost no rain here. Just windy AF (screen door spring/damper is bent) Is that because I cleaned the gutters? Or just poor forecasting because NOAA has been eviscerated?

It is kind of funny, there are times when people start some damn funny shit, I jump in but have absolutely no clue what the fuck is going on and why it started. And honestly? I don't care. Because usually it is just a pile of the smartest people here slinging scathing one liners and jokes on my TL.

TIL something new on the SEM kind of by accident. And it's something that isn't supposed to work. But it works. Using ETD in Optiplan mode = no charging but there's still good SE imaging. The SNR is much worse than in Standard mode but still good enough to get excellent images.
