When you buy real estate, you should get a land survey and a map of the access roads. If it has no access roads, that's a you problem, not a government problem. This jerk wants to turn a national park into his private driveway. If the road is built, will we get do drive on that road to his house?

Fucking #Telegram. I asked the thing how to turn off AI features and ads. It said that I have to ask my question in English. If they go on hawking AI crap, I'll delete my account over there.

It would be a cyber-crime if someone aimed a DDOS against the service that streamed the military execution. Not only would it be a crime which I would have no way of reporting because I wouldn't know how to track that down, it would hurt some important people's feelings.

The US needs to get rid of the policy* that a sitting president is immune from indictment or prosecution for crimes committed while in office. * Policy apparently has a higher priority than the Constitution; ask any cop who wants your ID. Change that, too.

First light on the #Tektronix RM503! Right to Repair is inherent in these old devices. The companies often publish, for free, the manuals and circuit diagrams.
Two signal generators displayed on X and Y channels. (H trigger and sweep don't trigger or sweep yet.)New filament transformer for the CRT cathode heater. The one in the main transformer is apparently shorting to ground. New wiring for filament voltage (right in green and red), new HV capacitor (red), and new resistors (blue) for the HV circuit.

My ancient #Tektronix RM503 #oscilloscope is showing signs of life. It was missing its high-voltage diode, but with it installed it hisses and the power supply gets very unstable. That said, the CRT did show signs of life. I suspect leaky filter capacitors.
Bottom cover removed from a Tektronix RM503 oscilloscope from about 1960. It shows point-to-point wiring in the classic Tektronix ceramic terminal strips. A faint green line on the CRT shows that it is basically working.
