That's what the crane is for. It's automated too!

We used it to yank the old bays out.

 

 

 

 

How I spent today:



The south-facing ENG microwave antenna (upper-left) is weird and scary. That's the 104 and a hafth floor of Sears Tower (yes, this is a thing), and you're leaning against the exterior glass of the building (coated in an opaque heat-rejecting rubberlike material) to access it.


The rest of the day was down on regular 104, transforming the Rack From Hell into the Rack from Heck, which is where all the cables from 104.5 terminate:








I have a "before" photo somewhere, months ago. Basically, it looked like a bomb went off inside a ware & cable plant run by bipolar dyslexics.

 

Got a chance to play with PCem today...

 

No idea what the picture of the house is.



Here's an actual photo of the World Wide Web, circa 1990, at CERN:



Ignore the terminal, the Web itself is in the background.

 

Earliest this photo could have been taken is 1992 because that's when Sun first shipped the sparc 10 that the terminal is sitting on.

Hence the word "circa."

 

Sure, but by 1992 there were multiple servers outside of CERN, so technically it's only a photo of PART of the world wide web at that time.

I asked the Corner Marshall how he stayed warm. He sent back this shot, of my econobox 1991 Ford Festiva, with 1.6 L turbo Miata engine, chasing down the 2019 Civic during the instructor's session. It was a chilly -19 C that day. He keeps interesting company!

That is one of the most commonly used default wallpapers used for windows ME which is what i'm running on my PCem virtual machine.

PCem emulates the hardware in real time.

 

 

Familiar with PCem, was trying to figure out how the house was relevant.

I don't believe I've ever used WinME. At that time, I was using NT4, 2000, and 98 SE. Skipped directly to XP after that.

I've never actually used PCem either. DOSbox and ScummVM are my go-tos. Roland MT-32 FTW.

 

 

And I thought MY welds were bad!
