A hand-dithered pic of a chinchilla done in Deluxe Paint years back. It's a bluish purple pixeled image, probably about 8 colours, of a fluffy white chinchilla cat doing a thousand yard stare after being locked on a floppy disk somewhere for near forty years.

A posing woman is gazing to the right, lost in thought, hands crossed. She has long green hair, and is wearing a red dress. Around her neck is an hourglass pendant.

A Navajo weaving hanging on a wall. The pattern appears abstract: thick white lines in varying directions on a black background. There are some reddish-orange diamonds near the edges, as well as a few thin outlined rectangles. There are three larger squares with a double-H pattern inside. Overall, the pattern looks a bit like an aerial view of roads in a strange ancient city. Thanks to First American Art Magazine for this photo.

Celebrated Navajo (Dinรฉ) artist Marilou Schultz recently completed a striking weaving. Although this rug may appear abstract, it is a representation of the wiring inside an integrated circuit. It shows the 555 timer, said at one point to be the world's most popular IC. Let's take a closer look...

An LGBTQ+ pride flag formatted in the layout of the SMPTE "color bars" test pattern used for broadcast television. The first set of columns use the colors of the gay pride flag, with the addition of the original SMPTE color on the final column. The second set of columns contains two pride flags - the pansexual flag horizontally, and the asexual flag flipped and horizontal. The final set of columns contains the three colors of the transgender flag and the two POC-inclusive colors, followed by the original bar gradient from the SMPTE ECR-1-1978 pattern.

A pixel art piece featuring a van driving through a field below golden clouds. A string of text says "Where are we going?" A generic phone number is below it.

No way, I had a similar scene in a dream many years ago too! It was for a getaway retreat agency of sorts. Do you think they met

From the service manual of our CRT TV:

NOTE 1. Turn the unit on and let it warm up for at least 30
minutes before performing the following adjustments. 2. Place the CRT surface facing east or west to reduce the
terrestrial magnetism.
3. Turn ON the unit and demagnetize with a Degauss Coil.

Dialing in CRTs is basically satanic rituals

A photo with the caption "'Hands weaving magnetic-core memory, IBM, Poughkeepsie, New York', 1956. Photograph by Ansel Adams. This photograph was made on a commercial assignment for IBM."

This black-and-white photo shows a core memory plane being assembled. It consists of an 80 by 50 grid of wires in a frame with tiny toroids on the wire intersections. Each wire is attached to metal terminals on the frame. Someone is using tweezers to thread the tiny cores onto the wires. The plane is about 4/5 completed. One hand is below the plane, palm-up, visible through the wires. The other hand (with nail polish) is above the plane, holding tweezers.

This photo of magnetic core memory popped up, taken by Ansel Adams. I investigated a bit: this memory holds 4000 bits, each stored in a tiny magnetized ferrite ring. It may be from an IBM 705 vacuum-tube business computer. 1/N

How are you keeping track of the battery's voltage with PPK2? Or are you using a separate voltage logging tool (e.g. AD3)?
