DigitalSeahorse: now I wanna take apart my HP monitor and see if it has an internal contrast control that goes further than the external buttons
Thefluffiestguineapig: What machine is this and why is Alex involved?
pleonasticTautology: @Thefluffiestguineapig Alex bought it!
DandyGeek: @Texan_Reverend I helped a friend move a 36” trinitron once, and then told them NEVER AGAIN. Holy cats that tube is heavy
gsyhiap:
Moo4Boy: @Thefluffiestguineapig yep
DigitalSeahorse:
Texan_Reverend: @DandyGeek It is _very_ heavy. I just had to move it to swap out the stand. I was able to do so on my own, but only because they were at the same height. If I had to go from the ground up to the stand, it probably wouldn't be happening.
meddlingmage_: awwww yeaaah
SnackPak_: fancy
DigitalSeahorse: hinges!
DoodlestheGreat: @DandyGeek I had to move a 50-inch one for a company that supplied rental equipment to company marketing departments... Yeah, we did NOT enjoy getting that on the pallet.
DigitalSeahorse: neato!
pleonasticTautology: that's so cool
pleonasticTautology: like a car hood
RealGamerCow: good hinges
TheWriterAleph: mmm yellow
LadyAiluros: so cool
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Moo4Boy I never want to see a solution I would propose to stop us losing an essential machine at a veterinary hospital in this kind of setting because many hospitals either can't afford to replace or won't so
Nigouki: oh that plastic above the TV got BAKED
LadyAiluros: that's a lot of CRT
Thefluffiestguineapig: @pleonasticTautology More reliable than my car hood

pleonasticTautology: hate hate hate hate that
pleonasticTautology:
SkylerRingtail: Dare I ask...how is the smell in the room?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh It's an eastern European machine? Explains why Alex bought it
sentientwaffle_: @Thefluffiestguineapig Asian, he misspoke
Thefluffiestguineapig:
@SkylerRingtail Good question 
ErynTzun: oh hai!
LadyAiluros:
CRT not working? It's caps. It's ALWAYS caps. 
Nigouki: did not expect us to get yoked on TTSF
DoodlestheGreat: There's a few dozen packs of tar & nicotine inside that cabinet.
Mai_Andra: <throws an egg at the screen>
DigitalSeahorse: can the smoke be cleaned off the plastic? is that why the outside looks better than the inside?
ErynTzun: Have we entered a Like A Dragon arcade?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Nigouki Get them gains!!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ErynTzun Basically in a way
LadyAiluros: that pot tool is amazing
LadyAiluros: @DigitalSeahorse Probably with Retrobrite
Moo4Boy: the other option is turn it off, tweak, turn it on again
DoodlestheGreat: @DigitalSeahorse Yeah, it can be cleaned. Had to clean a few computers from smokers. DIS-GUS-TING!
Nigouki: I really hope "House of Danger" is a board game and not some euphemistically titled office thingi
gsyhiap: "The House of Danger" seems oddly appropriate for this task
pleonasticTautology: oh we can hear the hum

RealGamerCow: does that say Baby on Board
Thefluffiestguineapig: What are the labels on that board?
DigitalSeahorse: how useful would an antistatic wristband be with this unit?
Juliamon: OK Baby on Board
OldUncleDan: As complex as this all seems; it's fairly simple compared to your average pinball machine.
MWGNZ: do not supply mains voltage to the coin slot
Thefluffiestguineapig: It says "Ok Baby on Board" why does that say that
7gorobei: arcade san
emilevitt: @LoadingReadyRun for sure, my dad was teaching me how to work on a crt tv when i was younger. i touched the tube while walking by and it sent me FLYING
Juliamon: the cabinet is an OK Baby
emilevitt:
not fun 
GrathXVI: I mean, that looks like just a wooden board to me, Paul
SquareDotCube: GDI Alex with that name
TheNerdWonder: Can confirm pinball machines are an order more janky and complex
Wrexadecimal: Hardware accurate emulation
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon What makes it an OK baby as opposed to a Bad Baby or Good, or dare we dream Great Baby
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TheNerdWonder They do have infinitely more springs it seems
Sethalidos: yep a CRT can carry a lethal charge for years after it has been unplugged, gotta be careful with them
Juliamon: Thefluffiestguineapig IDK ask the manu

TehAmelie: protip: don't give any new parents any item that says "OK Baby" on it
DigitalSeahorse: on a boat?
DandyGeek: sorry lads, on a plane
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TehAmelie Unless they are in on the joke
OldUncleDan: Riding a goat?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @RealGamerCow I mean, did we ever have any doubt?
BlueElectivire: @TehAmelie but then how would they know i find their baby acceptable?
Sethalidos: @Thefluffiestguineapig it's Ian who said it so who knows?
TehAmelie: see if you find their baby any less than the best baby ever you might not get any christmas cards
RealGamerCow:
DandyGeek: still gotta find a SF the Movie arcade board
DigitalSeahorse: time to turn it around?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TehAmelie I mean, I don't want Christmas cards from people who won't get humor and also I'm not going to buy them things for their baby
OldUncleDan: Background radiation originating from the Big Bang, no less.
Moo4Boy: The flyback is also a speaker
DandyGeek: likely a busted pot or blown cap like @ladyailuros mentioned

TomatoKigu: Time to bring out the oscilloscope
DigitalSeahorse: cool technology!
7gorobei: is it possible to hook up the mister to a known working monitor?
ErynTzun: I used to have customers, usually the younger sort, come in with a dead PSU and ask me if they can crack it open and fix it easily. That's a whole lot of nope, please Do Not. Usually always someone who had never even opened their computer in their life So many dusty PSUs.
Drasvin: Time to work with high voltage?
DigitalSeahorse: the one time it's not folded on the end
OldUncleDan: @Drasvin Danger, Danger... High Voltage!
DigitalSeahorse: oh no
Moo4Boy: @7gorobei mister has lights on it that are working
Wrexadecimal: das blinkenlights
Thefluffiestguineapig: I cannot imagine the amount of dawn that will be required to scrub this clean
DigitalSeahorse: my old office chair had a stripped bolt head and thankfully the other 3 were not so I could jimmy the 3/4ths of it apart despite the 1 refusing to budge
ErynTzun: @Thefluffiestguineapig 15 dawn ducks worth
LoadingReadyRun: @ErynTzun I took a computer tech course in college and they made it clear in no uncertain terms that our work stops at the PSU case. PSUs aren't too expensive and shouldn't be opened unless you really know what you're doing
7gorobei: @Moo4Boy for certainty sake you want to eliminate as many variables. just the leds on the mister does get 100% certain. if they can get to boot, that cuts out 50% of the equation.
Drasvin: My computer tech course advised against working on CRTs and laser printers
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ErynTzun I'm thinking in terms of gastrointestinal distress dog and cat exam rooms to scrub worth
pleonasticTautology: oh hey the mount has handles
Bearudite: nothing like ignoring the handles
ErynTzun: @LoadingReadyRun The average PSU at the time was between 600-850 Watts, just don't even true. Save up for a new one do not risk life.
Texan_Reverend: I agree, Paul. I've always treated them like sealed units to be replaced if broken.
Costar_s: Did they discharge it? :s
ErynTzun: err don't even try
RealGamerCow:
TheNerdWonder: not only handles, but handles designed for ONE PERSON to lift in and out....good lord
LoadingReadyRun: pickup--we made a mistake
DeM0nFiRe:
Thefluffiestguineapig: @LoadingReadyRun Good to know
GasCityGaming: This kind of reminds me of taking apart like 2010 iMacs lol
Nigouki: i believe trailing wires on a very heavy thing is where "Uh-oh, spaghetti-O's!" phrase came from
TehAmelie: i think the PSU is what thing i had replaced on my PC once. cost twice as much in cab fares to the repair store as the unit cost, but no regrets
Sethalidos: CRT's are heavy bastichs
Toxxick: My knowledge of electricity is not great, partially because I cant wrap my head around anything I cant hold in my hand, but how can a PSU be dangerous if its not plugged in? It doesn't /generate/ electricity out of noting?
DigitalSeahorse: woo!
Thefluffiestguineapig: So much smoke crud
e_bloc:
ThrinagaBattleheart: My understanding is, capacitors
SkylerRingtail: *Sweats* Oh my
ArdCollider: @Toxxick capacitors *store* electricity. so you can fuck up and complete a circuit.
Moo4Boy: @Toxxick capacitors still hold charge
Bearudite: please tell me they discharged it
SandwichKed: if it's been plugged in recent-ish there can be charge left in various components
lamina5432: nerds were built different back in the day
Moo4Boy: @Bearudite they just pulled it out
Drasvin: @Bearudite Not yet
ArdCollider: or throw your screwdriver across the room smoking a touch, etc.
LadyAiluros: discharge the anode?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @LadyAiluros RUBBER FLOOR MAT
SandwichKed: if it's not been for years... it's not too likely tho
Bearudite: yay death potential!
LadyAiluros: clip a driver to the chassis and poke the rubber cup
TomatoKigu: They can also be used to build charge pumps and voltage doublers.
DigitalSeahorse: wear lots of rubber
LordZarano: And the entire CRT tube is one GIANT capacitor
Eltanin73: I remember the first time I had to work on a CRT based Mac (PowerMac 500-series) and everyone in the shop being concerned over the Service Guide reminder to have a staff member trained in CPR available before discharging the CRT.
Ned_Flandalorian: this is why the anode (that plug on the top of the CRT) is covered in rubber
OldUncleDan: Like a flywheel! But for electricity!
Thefluffiestguineapig: This is a moment of for real unless you are a professional DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME
SquareDotCube: like a water tank but for electricity
TehAmelie: many years, sometimes
Nigouki: the electron gun needs a LOT of energy
TomatoKigu: Hundreds? Try 50k if you touch the flyback transformer, lol
e_bloc: roughly anywhere
Fruan: It is full of electrons, and the electrons hate you.
Bearudite: and Mercury!
Dread_Pirate_Westley: If it becomes full of something, it will be bad.
RatherLargeToad: do not de-vacuum the tube
Toxxick: Dont want to put something in the nothing

niccus: nature hates this one trick
TehAmelie: glass
Veshnikard: good question paul
SquareDotCube: ground ground ground
DigitalSeahorse: the LESS DANGER way
Texan_Reverend: Discharge time! Wheeeeeee!
ContingentCat: And what's the ttsf way?
Toxxick: Yeah, how does one succ the capacitance out of a capacitor
RealGamerCow: yeah that's the only/best way to work it safely
LadyAiluros: yup that's the tool
7gorobei: to ease people's mind, good modern well designed electronics will have a bleed off resistor to deal with lingering charged capacitors
Drasvin: Later era CRTs have bleeders that will discharge the tube much faster. Not guaranteed, but safer. THough I don't know if this tube is new enough for one of those circuits.
DandyGeek: do not damage a crt. I did this once and took a hit from the glass when it blew
niccus: are we about to meet this "ground" i've heard so much about?
RatherLargeToad: beware of the blue smoke that makes the electronics work
LadyAiluros: yup
Driosenth: Plasma TVs from the 00's had massive dangerous DC capacitors, and massive filter capacitors on the AC input power . I nearly blow my hand off mistaking the two.
SandwichKed: some things are for shooting - probably at something like 50 yards
Thefluffiestguineapig: @SandwichKed Only 50?
SandwichKed: hard cover and safety goggles
Texan_Reverend: @Toxxick Kinda like the Demon Core: poke at the dangerous bit with a screwdriver....which is itself attached to a grounding cable to discharge all the leftover voltage.
coronax_cj: Some CRTs have a discharge circuit, but who knows if this is one of them...

TheNerdWonder: oh yeah, be glad it's there but always verify
Driosenth: Can you put a mic next to the caps?
calculated_uncertainties: Is the voltage too high to bleed off with a dmm?
Moo4Boy: happy beep
pleonasticTautology: or a stevenson?
Moo4Boy: @calculated_uncertainties yes, it is in the kV range
SandwichKed: waaaay back in the day I spent a summer working at a college and we disposed of second-story VT100s by chucking them out a window into a dumpster. NOT recommended.
SnackPak_: time to clench
TheNerdWonder: I wonder if the point of the phillips is easier to deal with if you accidentally weld it to something
Nigouki: Also reminder that this is Not a "How-to" program. It's a "Let's Try" so don't replicate without your own research.
DigitalSeahorse: maybe take some classes first
NimrodXIV: safety first (for once)
Driosenth: Consider you options
LadyAiluros: yeah I still beg people who know more than me to do this for me
ContingentCat: High difficulty rating for this one
ArdCollider: perhaps you have a friend in the trades who can be bribed to bring you an electrician friend, for instance.
DigitalSeahorse: metal rivets in the jeans
ghyllnox: Glasses?
DigitalSeahorse: and belt
e_bloc: more glasses?
7gorobei: do we have the fiberglass hook to yank ian away?
SnackPak_: what a kind friend
DigitalSeahorse: xD
MWGNZ: the safety plank
pleonasticTautology: no that's genuinely correct
NimrodXIV: phrasing
SandwichKed: that and not pulling the circuit through your chest
Veshnikard: the OSHA approved method
pleonasticTautology: no, it knocks him away from the shock
Drasvin: Safety plank
e_bloc: imagine those are your last words
TheNerdWonder: that's not a joke. the wood is non-conductive
kenry6: Is this a Crapshot now?
Thefluffiestguineapig: No I don't
DigitalSeahorse: wack him to safety
lamina5432: so notes lrr needs a rubber mat
emilevitt: mandatory bonk stick!
Nigouki: The professionals have fiberglass poles ususually
RurouniGeo:
DigitalSeahorse: this is how the pros do it too
Nigouki: wood can get wet and still conduct
Thefluffiestguineapig: @lamina5432 I have said so many times
DoctorHutch: What? Its a cap, not a powerline yall, any shock you get will not last long
Nigouki: but fiberglass is safe
DigitalSeahorse: cause Alex can't safely grabs someone being elecrocuted either
Ned_Flandalorian: something tells me that anode had been detached before
KWardJenx: Take no chances. Alex, hit him!
brainbosh: "where's the earth shattering kaboom?" lol
DigitalSeahorse: electrocuted*
GasCityGaming: You pry the person away with something non conductive or literally running tackle them as hard as you can so they come away from whatever the thing is.
pleonasticTautology: @GasCityGaming exactly
ArdCollider: or you run to the large red button and push it.
RealGamerCow: oh that whole thing used to be red?
ArdCollider: if you are in a facility thusly equipped.
Thefluffiestguineapig:
SquareDotCube: though we probably should see ankle grounding straps so we can ground without the inconvenience a wrist strap can have
ThrinagaBattleheart: Even with a capacitor, I wouldn't want to mess around with possibility of electric shock
Drasvin: High voltage has been confirmed discharged
gsyhiap: I'm glad that Ian appears unshocked
DigitalSeahorse: don't get the floor wet
ShaneLeeAtk: Take it from someone who has been electrocuted more than the average... Don't
e_bloc: 90 proof or more
LadyAiluros: yup
LadyAiluros: caps
Ned_Flandalorian: @RealGamerCow no, it's coated except at the anode point
LadyAiluros: so many bad caps on CRTs
GasCityGaming: yup, electrocuted myself on a sewing machine in 9th grade
SnackPak_: reseating is always a good idea
GasCityGaming: was luckily able to let go on my own
Sethalidos: why does this CRT look burnt?
Lazarenth: oh snap can we get a 3rd strike machine
7gorobei: how old is this tube? are we in the infamous discount leaking liquid electrolyte caps of the eraly 2000's?
Strebenherz: @Sethalidos cigarette smoke
GasCityGaming: we had to unplug the sewing machines when we were done and i reach down to grab the plug without looking and the cable cover had come away so i grabbed bare prongs for about a second.
SquareDotCube: it might have RGB output
LadyAiluros: the tube is the tube yeah
Bearudite: is this a RGB SCART?
coronax_cj: Heavily used CRTs tend to get like that. CRTs are consumables - they have a limited lifespan.
ApplicativeJones: 320x240 actually makes sense, though. 320x200 is nonsense
northos: uh oh
DigitalSeahorse: oh! oooo!

DigitalSeahorse: corner is bent and bork
LadyAiluros: YIKES
ErynTzun: Did something get dropped on it?
Thefluffiestguineapig: NONONONONONO
Wrexadecimal: ope
LadyAiluros: yeah that's no bueno
ArdCollider: uuuuughhhh
ErynTzun: Or did someone drop IT?
coronax_cj: "fixed"
ghyllnox: Hm.
TheAinMAP:
DigitalSeahorse:
Bearudite: raw bodge wire too
e_bloc: yeah "fixed"
LadyAiluros: you get to fix someone elses' fix!
Veshnikard: someone tried to use the handles by themselves
RatherLargeToad: as hoc circuitry
ErynTzun: Yeah a couple of bodge wires along with the wobble, no bueno.
pleonasticTautology:
@loadingreadyrun please tell alex chat says thank you for handling manual camera ops
DigitalSeahorse: everyone loved degauss
NimrodXIV: bwoooom
SandwichKed: I see a analog-to-digital converter in your future
ShaneLeeAtk: Those were the days
7gorobei: post QC fixes at the factory can still use bodge wires like that.
GasCityGaming: man, when you got a monitor that hadn't been done in a while *chef kiss
MacbethSeemsSus: even though I know they didn't, in my head degaussing made the Inception "bwaaaaaaaa"
ContingentCat: It made such a great sound that bwoooong
Thefluffiestguineapig: @MacbethSeemsSus Or the Jaws "dadun"
DoodlestheGreat: CRUNCHY GOODNESS
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh the smell of hat
Thefluffiestguineapig: the cigarette gunk
pleonasticTautology: @LoadingReadyRun can you go back to the board cam rq
DigitalSeahorse: got any compressed air?
Texan_Reverend: @MacbethSeemsSus On bigger TVs like mine, the power-on auto degauss often makes a big -thump- sound with a mild hum like that afterword.
ErynTzun: I didn't get the entire number in time
GasCityGaming: I found a German arcade forum post from 2014
aquinas_0: god the memory of so many components killed by my dad's second hand smoke
aquinas_0: compressed air isn't going to work
gsyhiap: @ErynTzun r-8700 23545154
aquinas_0: its gummy
pleonasticTautology: @LoadingReadyRun thank yooou
gsyhiap: @gsyhiap But I'm having difficulty finding anything relevant
SandwichKed: how original are they trying to keep this?
realbadatthis_: time for the Blue Shower/ Deoxit Gold
ErynTzun: Yeah thought I saw something but it's a laptop motherboard schematic
DigitalSeahorse: wooo
DigitalSeahorse: full unit!
pleonasticTautology: it seems "r-8700" relates to the pcb materials
BrightstormRising: the r 8700 seems to be the spec on the phenolic board itself.
DigitalSeahorse: sweet!
DigitalSeahorse:
ArdCollider: the only lead I have is that some guy on a German arcade board had a similar CRT setup he was asking around about
ArdCollider: he didn't get a lot of answers
Its_VeeBot: chube
ErynTzun: Boombox model number Rt-8700s
pleonasticTautology: @ArdCollider i can't even find that
ThrinagaBattleheart:
And it's less cigarette-stained
ErynTzun: Paper phenolic circuit board materials
aquinas_0 remembers carefully scrubbing circuit boards with isopropyl alcohol
Ned_Flandalorian: is that a so-called "universal" CRT driver? I got bad news...
DigitalSeahorse: so this is no longer as dangerous to touch
Fruan: Its a gun that shoots hate at you, and the front of the screen catches it.
Texan_Reverend: Yeah, we don't want to damage those electron guns.
DigitalSeahorse: the green bit
KWardJenx: Turns out it was the cigarette ash that was holding it together all along...
TomatoKigu: Good ol' vaccuum tubes.
7gorobei: breech
Fruan: That's the breech, surely?
pleonasticTautology: yeah
TehAmelie: remember, all electron guns are loaded
Texan_Reverend: @Fruan And if some part of that arrangement happens to be broken, you give yourself free x-rays while you game!
Athelgar: isnt that what the LHC does?
Its_VeeBot:
Drasvin: This end would be the breach of the guns, wouldn't it?
dreezebreeze: "spin" is a bit of a misnomer iirc
MTigress: i hear spinning's a good trick
e_bloc: when anything but no is a yes
ErynTzun: Does Heat Sink fit? If yes install here.
wedge_x: Mysterons
BlueElectivire: @dreezebreeze i mean the explanation i heard is "imagine a ball spinning, spin is like that except there is no ball and it doesn't spin" make of that what you will
pleonasticTautology: thank you Ian
RebekahWSD: We control them!
pleonasticTautology: Ian /pos
Juliamon: !control
LRRbot: Ben is in control.
MTigress: i think the corner came off
SandwichKed: do electrons dream of angular momentum?
Veshnikard: with a setup like this what could possibly go wrong
DigitalSeahorse: remember not to touch the danger bit indirectly
TehAmelie: @BlueElectivire subatomic physics are so zen
Bearudite: how about an air duster
Bearudite: lol true
aquinas_0: second hand smoke is, again, super gummy
TehAmelie: first there is a mountain, then there is a quark, then there is a mountain
Fruan: A CRT covered in nicotine is one of the most dangerous things I can imagine without getting nuclear.
Strebenherz: @TehAmelie There's a Quark? someone get Odo
wedge_x: electron guns out
Texan_Reverend: Nah, most of that cigarette junk is _gummy_ when it builds up like that. Which is even worse when handling.
MacbethSeemsSus: It's like asbestos, so long as it doesn't move you're fine

LoadingReadyRun: @Uniclonus progress!
Its_VeeBot: You know it's bad when Ian uses the term "goddamn"
pleonasticTautology: @Uniclonus okay sure but that's *fixable*
SandwichKed: one of the worst things I ever saw was a six-tray CD changer in a PC... which lived for 5 years in an auto repair bay
BlueElectivire: @Uniclonus you can always fix it by mounting it back the wrong way
BlueElectivire: instead of addressing the real issue
Bearudite: or just adjust settings on the MiSTer
ErynTzun: @Fruan That reminds me of the PS2 someone tried to trade in when I was a manager for EB Games. Entire front grill filled with tobacco. It was as though they had set it up on its side and rolled cigarettes on it.
OldUncleDan: I'm just waiting for Alex and Ian to successfully power this on fully and end up getting isekai'd into some sort of Tron situation.

ErynTzun: Now it's just a Reddit post with no answer and it's a locked post
Thefluffiestguineapig: 0.o
Its_VeeBot: Or you go to Reddit and the user's used that fucking Redact script
RatherLargeToad: “Who were you…what did you know?”
MacbethSeemsSus: Ah the XKCD problem
TomatoKigu: My favourite is "I have this issue" [post removed by user] "Solved it, thanks"
ErynTzun: Or worse yet, directions to a private Discord
Uniclonus: The worst is seeing a question, a deleted reply, and then another reply saying thanks that fixed it
iris_of_ether: "This link helped me!" Link is broken.
Athelgar: "anyone else having this problem?" | "Yep" | No further posts
Thefluffiestguineapig: Or google is directing you to a deleted post
Spades_Slicc: Insert hilarious reference to Cabinet Man by Lemon Demon that definitely has not been made already
flatluigi: nanao?
Its_VeeBot: Redact is a pox upon the Internet as a whole and I personally want to throw everyone who uses it to the dogs
DigitalSeahorse: NANAO
ErynTzun: I had a customer ask me if there was a book they could buy with all the Microsoft error codes. lol
TomatoKigu: The CRT tube itself was also branded Nanao.
gsyhiap: Ready
TomatoKigu: Nanao 05A00362G1
gualdhar: 05A00362G1
TehAmelie: i think the worst has to be a question and the answer is a link to letmegooglethatforyou, and now google is not a search engine

DigitalSeahorse: 05A005362G1 I heard an extra 5 the first time
e_bloc: can we have that one more time but in the Beej phonetic alphabet
NathanJay_GA: We need a recording of Ian speaking every digit so we can set up our own numbers station
TomatoKigu: Ian, you're very good at reading clearly, do you secretly have a ham ticket?
ErynTzun: First result in Duck Duck go
ErynTzun: disabled AI
gsyhiap: couple of unhelpful forum posts so far
ArdCollider: someone else has a Daytona USA with one and thinks the CRT is a Nanao MS8-29FSG
Ned_Flandalorian: can we get the tube brand/model number from the label?
TheMerricat:
"The part number 05A00362G1 is the main printed circuit board (PCB) identifier for the Nanao MS8-29FSG 29-inch arcade CRT monitor chassis, commonly found in Japanese arcade cabinets like the Sega Astro City." So at least we have that part locked in 
DoodlestheGreat: That monitor is too young to smoke
OldUncleDan: The monitor is smoking... But it's trying to quit.
MWGNZ: if the monitor was smoking maybe thats where some of the cigarette staining came from
Its_VeeBot: In unrelated TTSF-adjacent news, I was thinking of rejiggering my Ubuntu Server into a Proxmox setup for homelabbing

TheWriterAleph: oop.
iris_of_ether: oh nooooo
adept_nekomancer: I hope that was an optional corner
SnackPak_: more bodge!
MacbethSeemsSus: That's not great for the PCB
Strebenherz:
RealGamerCow: is there any actual trace on there?
coronax_cj: So, how many traces on the broken bit?
niccus: mmm crunchy
OldUncleDan: @DoodlestheGreat It was made in the 90s. It's old enough.
Veshnikard: at least its not a multi layer board
Moo4Boy: see also xkcd 979 for issues with old forum threads
7gorobei: do the middle layers have copper? that could be a ground plane
TomatoKigu: Ya, it's a 2 layer board at most, so that's pretty easy to bypass
iris_of_ether: If it's a ground plane, maybe not a big deal. If it's traces...
ErynTzun: The traces are severed I assume
SquareDotCube: PCBs are mostly to make things not connected to a bunch of wires

jibkat: @OldUncleDan The TLDR is you can but they often look not as good
Moo4Boy: @TomatoKigu the adaptors needed also frequently have several frames of latency
DigitalSeahorse: does the box have anything in the bottom of it?
TomatoKigu:
@Moo4Boy Also that, yes.

butt_ghost: paul has PENNIES in 2026???
e_bloc: are those even coins
iris_of_ether: @jibkat *nod nod* Like if the board is already broken they could *try* soldering on some wires to replace the busted traces??
jibkat: 100% that would be the fix
e_bloc: the only coins we have are the ones that aren't legal tender?
SymphonySolstice: I still have a handful of pennies somewhere
iris_of_ether: It's old enough it might not completely fail!
rosesmcgee: Dial a yield for arcade pricing
butt_ghost: someone call Penny Arcade they must have something
DigitalSeahorse: I have old subway tokens which I still carry for visitors in case they don't have a presto or cash but the busses may not take those now
ErynTzun: Yeah in the US you can't stick a Canadian coin in most machines it will spit it out
adept_nekomancer: So we need a washer of just the right size.
Bearudite: if it ain't broke
TheMerricat: If the board is fragile enough that it's crumbling already, a wire bodging will only be a temporary fix. The substrate will continue to crumble and lose more parts if the cabinet is jarred.
ErynTzun: In MN we often see Canadian coins since they are very close in size and there's a lot of cross over being our neighbor
realbadatthis_: At least it looks like one of the zinc ones, those plastic imonexes were a pain
RealGamerCow: I was at a pinball convention and they had an old pinball machine from the 40s(?) open and the mechanicals were astounding.

jibkat: if your in the right group
OldUncleDan: @ErynTzun Yep... And it's a huge headache when they get run through the coin counter.
RealGamerCow: People, not Ians.
2Flower: Arcade fans talk dip switches constantly.
Ned_Flandalorian: ends up triggering a brief pulse... which people figured could be induced with a strong enough source held on the outside of the cabinet
DigitalSeahorse: xD
Kata_The_Cat: I was reading about a dipswitch on reddit an hour ago.
DigitalSeahorse: Alex is no dip
Bearudite: I still fight with dipswitches for neogeo stuff and on the MiSTer
UnknownFriday: Just had my furnace blower adjusted with dip switches. It was manufactured in 2025.
SnackPak_: my keyboard has dip switches
SquareDotCube: Good for changing settings you don't want others to change
Driosenth: "This is the dip switch that just makes the enemy cheat"
HbombAndFriends:
…about 5 minutes ago. 
TomatoKigu: Got dip switches on a bunch of synthesizers and other MIDI devices.
adept_nekomancer: @ErynTzun I grew up in the northern U.S., and collected a few Canadian coins that way as a kid. I recall really liking the realistic maple leaf penny and wondering why we didn't have trees on our coins.
ThrinagaBattleheart: Yeh, a bunch of tiny 0/1 toggles, depending on the board you drop into the cabinet for the software they do different things
ErynTzun: @OldUncleDan Most of the time when I worked retail I would be counting by hand. I think it was more of an issue at the bank. Wasn't my problem when it's change.
DigitalSeahorse: dip switch is like having a cheat code
Texan_Reverend: I have a 4k HDMI matrix switcher that has DIP switches for configuring the EDID it sends the devices connected to it.
TheMerricat:
Jumpers are cheaper.
HbombAndFriends: Actually, some of the new multicarts for Atari’s 2600+/7800+ have dip switches to select a game
ThrinagaBattleheart: Last time I personally saw dipswitches was on a 3rd-party N64 multi-unit memory pak, where the switches changed what part of the memory you were reading from
e_bloc: that is fascinating
LadyAiluros:
I mean I work in retro stuff so DIP switches are a part of life
Driosenth: The problem with dip switches is that you need a GPIO pin for on you chip, you could get away with multiplexing or analog pins and varying resistances, but that complicates things fast.
RealGamerCow: Looking at you, John Deere.
LoadingReadyRun: @Texan_Reverend The Blackmagic up/down/cross converter uses dip switches, as well
2Flower: Ohhh, yeah. Copy protection on arcade games was a wild, wild arms race

ApplicativeJones: I could ask Kyle for you about ITG stuff
ThrinagaBattleheart:

TheMerricat: "Arcade game hardware manufacturers in the 1980s and 1990s used aggressive anti-piracy measures—famously known as "suicide batteries" and custom encryption chips—to prevent bootlegging and data extraction. When tampering, reading, or power loss occurred, these physical mechanisms wiped critical decryption keys and permanently bricked the game board."

SnackPak_: oof
DigitalSeahorse: reminds me of the inner workings of one of my doorbells to tell it which signal to use
TheMerricat: @SkylerRingtail It's not that they had the phone wipe itself, it's that when the border police forced him to give his PIN to access the phone, he gave them the 'duress' PIN that tells the phone to erase the phone. They claimed that this counted as premeditated destruction of evidence. Of course, the counterargument is it can't be destruction of evidence if no crime was being committed to 'erase' and since border searches are warrentless...

e_bloc: so many things to blame don henley about
Its_VeeBot: Remember chat, you can check out any time you like
ErynTzun: Panasonic/Matsushita also makes and has made in the past an enormous amount of unrelated things.
Its_VeeBot: But you can never leave
e_bloc: I mean the song may haunt you but killing a teenager is probably worse
SymphonySolstice: ???
MacbethSeemsSus: Remember, most things are made by the lowest bidder
ghyllnox: @Ed25519 Dang, that takes me back to our professor in college telling us legends like that
Ed25519:
@ghyllnox ...
iris_of_ether: I have More Magic printed out and hung in my cube
e_bloc: is it really a botched repair if it works
RealGamerCow: It would be great if you changed the top panel from "OK Baby" to "OK Botchy"
realbadatthis_: nah, then it is a cloodge
Kata_The_Cat: Everyone loves a good Ship of Theseus joke, but the pieces change every time, so is it really still the same joke?
Toxxick: I wanna be the botchy
ErynTzun: Okay Baby DAYTONAAAAAAAAAA
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Toxxick Well, let's hope they do this job well
DiscordianTokkan: Degs? d'ya like degs?
wedge_x: *alex*
e_bloc: sometimes your wires electrocutem e
SnackPak_: well I got that song stuck in my head now
Thefluffiestguineapig: @DiscordianTokkan You wanna buy some degs sticks?
MacbethSeemsSus: I just realized they haven't gotten to test if the buttons/sticks work
Bearudite: I have run one before
Bearudite: its awful
TehAmelie: only give the hot leads to the journalists
DiscordianTokkan: @Thefluffiestguineapig mmm, pepperettes
LoadingReadyRun: @MacbethSeemsSus we did see inputs registering on the game board
Thefluffiestguineapig: @DiscordianTokkan You don't want to sell me degs sticks. I don't wanna sell you degs sticks
Bearudite: we had one at the old printshop I worked at and we used it and an old Heidelberg to print a 125th anniversary newspaper for the shop
ErynTzun: I worked in arcade of sorts once, when I worked in a laser tag place we had an arcade section to one side of the two arenas. The loudest machine was the DAYTONA machine so that song gets stuck in my head even decades later.
Bearudite: the lead went everywhere
iris_of_ether: @ErynTzun Last week on Ian's home stream, he set the music for the boat in Pirate Yazuka in Hawaii to be the DAYTOOOONA song.
ErynTzun: I used to turn the volume OFF and then the Admirals (the name for the managers) would come around and turn it back on. The sounds was a requirement I imagine.
ErynTzun: @iris_of_ether My personal hell
Its_VeeBot: Chat is gonna watch TV now
Nigouki: I missed a little bit, why is the board with the broken corner back on the electron gun?
Drasvin: TIme to watch the tube
Kata_The_Cat: Rolling out the big TV, teacher must be tired and doing a VHS class today.
Its_VeeBot: @Nigouki Ian thinks it's not damaged through any important traces
northos: @Nigouki it seems like nothing on the broken corner was important (probably)
MacbethSeemsSus: @Nigouki The leads on the new board are different, and will need to be swapped
RealGamerCow:
Drasvin: @Nigouki They need more research to put the new boards in, but Ian thinks the broken corner is unimportant
ghyllnox: Oooh
e_bloc: I like how you roll
Nigouki: thanks chat!
ErynTzun: @Kata_The_Cat Gonna watch some Mr Wizard or Beekman's World!
Its_VeeBot: Ooooh no
Nigouki: duck and cover?
Drasvin: Time for high voltage

AugmentingPath: it's lit
Nigouki: i do not hear the bwwooooom
ErynTzun: Main Screen Turn On?
e_bloc: ok baby
TheNerdWonder: did we forget to tell the board to send all zigs?
coronax_cj: Am I seeing faint noise on the screen or is it just compression artifacts?
DigitalSeahorse: oh there's a mirror on set too
Nigouki: do no insert fingy into pixies
Drasvin: No arc flash
Fruan: Remember! The CRT is (probably) energized again! No touchy!
e_bloc: we're adjusting to make it even less likely to explode right
jibkat: @TheNerdWonder for great justice
Drasvin: @coronax_cj Fan noise from power supply, my guess
northos: @e_bloc I'm not sure that's something we can adjust. it's more about tweaking display parameters
northos: @coronax_cj I was noticing that too
e_bloc: @northos I suppose that is a lot to ask for
Nigouki: it's been a while since I've encountered a CRT, but I do remember that you'd Know when it's energized
SnackPak_: we have hum?
coronax_cj: Like 15 KHz?
letsbelgo: yes
DigitalSeahorse: unsure how much is normal backround room noise
e_bloc: sounds. . . dangerous
MacbethSeemsSus: Protective plank
realbadatthis_: you joke but they did make a flappy bird cabinent
DigitalSeahorse: saved by planking
Drasvin: Safety Plank™️
rosesmcgee: @MacbethSeemsSus Board of Life
DigitalSeahorse:
NoxStryx: Is plank for peeling Ian away from the wires if he goes ridgid for shock?
Drasvin: @NoxStryx Yes
NoxStryx: Mmmmm hot juice
SnackPak_: that checks out with what Alex said earlier
Driosenth: horizontal set to infinity
DigitalSeahorse: maybe that's why it went to one vertical line
Its_VeeBot: Horizontal: yes
TheNerdWonder: Alex! No!
ErynTzun: How many horizontal pixels ya got for sale?
e_bloc: two hawk tuahs

ContingentCat: Dealers choice
RealGamerCow:
I only suck if there's a hole.
DigitalSeahorse:
SnackPak_: @RealGamerCow same
Lysander_salamander: whoa a whole arcade cabinet?
ghyllnox: No flux given
e_bloc: zero flux given
Lysander_salamander: Is that a crt monitor?
RealGamerCow: Alex is going to have a "recovering gold from PCBs" yoube channel
DigitalSeahorse:
Its_VeeBot: Theater of the mind
Texan_Reverend: @lysander_salamander Indeed! It's from the arcade cabinet they're working on.
MacbethSeemsSus: We need a Werner Herzog monologue of what's happening
ThrinagaBattleheart: @RealGamerCow Also same~
InconsiderateHat: @ghyllnox @e_bloc Same Brain
Its_VeeBot: Good catch Ian
ErynTzun: I've learned to repair Joycons so well that I never want to do it anymore
e_bloc: same brain*rot*
Lysander_salamander: I've heard some of the old tvs and monitors, when they started breaking down and were improperly repaired, started giving off radiation
RealGamerCow: It sure does!
ghyllnox:
@e_bloc Indeed
Driosenth: kinda
ErynTzun: No thank youuuuu
SnackPak_: I'll pass
TomatoKigu: How about "recover silver from photographic developer" youtube channel?
Kata_The_Cat: I hear those Flock cameras have a lot of gold in them.
OldUncleDan: I seem to remember Nile Red doing something like that.
ProcyonFlynn: Modern day alchemy - magic gold isn't real
UtilityPunk: Solder suckers are super fun. Desoldering wick with flux works a lot better, but has a surprisingly big learning curve
ContingentCat: That was great yeah, I have a much better idea of what people are talking about talking about projects
DigitalSeahorse: some people have more of a sense of self-preservation
MacbethSeemsSus: And ram!
RustZenith: Sometimes soldering can leave you fuming
GrathXVI: It's free real estate
Texan_Reverend: @lysander_salamander When powered on, if there's a major failure, they can start delivering x-rays out of the tube.
TomatoKigu: Well I suppose you recover it from the fixer, technically.
62MGcobra: excuse me i'll be right back
ErynTzun: Can we harvest it from the AI data centers
pimiento: i mean, with all the tax breaks, it basically is ours
rosesmcgee: chances are your tax dollars paid for it...
offbeatwitch: it's yours my friend. as long as you can run fast enough
MacbethSeemsSus: Look Alex, those Flock cameras broke themselves
ErynTzun: Oops tripped and fell and brought them offline
RealGamerCow: I liked the "Let's test methods of cutting 2 1/2 inch aluminum pipe" video I saw
Nigouki: How DARE they! Only The State is allowed to do mass surveillance!
wedge_x: lab we used when I was actively using cine film told us once he paid for his chemicals every year with recovered silver
ClockTamer: cyberpunk is a cool setting, not a goal
SkylerRingtail: I got Flock removed from my city, which rippled to the county level and some half dozen nearby municipalities now. I'm pleased as punch.
ThrinagaBattleheart:
RealGamerCow: That's what Flock cameras are on
gsyhiap: It's known as telling them to 'Flock off'
SnackPak_: @SkylerRingtail the hero we need
ContingentCat: @SkylerRingtail Damn good job!
TomatoKigu: I'm told 18V reciprocating saws are great at cutting aluminium pipe.

RealGamerCow: hand held band saws are terrifying to me
ErynTzun: oh wow those things are huge
62MGcobra: miter saw
pimiento: dry cut metal saws are so good
RustZenith:
This has been one of the worst months in terms of home repair for me, so ty for taking my mind away from that.
ThrinagaBattleheart: I do love miter saws

TomatoKigu: This is why we like gold plated connectors…no corrosion, easy to solder.
rosesmcgee: Alex channeling Conan's dad
OldUncleDan: Eff Oxygen! We have too much of it in the atmosphere!
realbadatthis_: aluminum doesn't rust, it rubies
lamina5432: as someone who worked in spring factory steel can sometimes not be trusted
Drasvin: Aluminum really likes oxygen. Just loves that O2
MacbethSeemsSus: The space between, our soldered lines
DigitalSeahorse: uhoh
SkylerRingtail: I vaguely remember something about pre- and post-nuclear steel?
DigitalSeahorse: what about galvanized steel?
ErynTzun: hahah yes it can be tricky when it's coated with something
RealGamerCow: if I was rich, I would buy LRR a handheld laser welder
SquareDotCube: Steel trying to be titanium is the worst
DigitalSeahorse: easy to tell it's not soft
Driosenth: Every steel has a mixture of 11 herbs and spices (read: alloys and traces). What's your favorite flavor, mine current go-to is A286
ContingentCat: They gotta go to old ship wrecks
Nigouki: and then until the 60s we just kept going and going
Kata_The_Cat: Someone must have been very careless.
Its_VeeBot: Stupid not-understandy-pots question: Is there a possibility that the way the pot is set would cause it to bridge?
ThrinagaBattleheart:
Hmmmm, I wonder what happened in the '40s that added a bunch of radioactive particles into the atmosphere
firehawkzoa: It's not shorting on the other side of the board is it
Drasvin: Oh...atmospheric metals. Fun times
e_bloc: new metals dropped
TomatoKigu: The day I visited the local nuclear power plant was the day I learned that my Asthma medication is slightly radioactive; it had to be locked up outside the facility. 🙃
MacbethSeemsSus: I wonder how those particles became airborne
DigitalSeahorse: let's clean out this whole reactors system, replace alllllll the pipes and everything
e_bloc: I can't believe they didn't account for all of that
ThrinagaBattleheart: Yeah, infinitesimal but still *very* visible to high-sensitivity radiation sensors
Driosenth: We created our own radioactive litholayer
ProcyonFlynn: Would space-iron be clean? Or is that likely to be a bit too baked? That's probably a bit out of scope.
MacbethSeemsSus: Materials also include "people" in this case
ContingentCat: Not knowing what you don't know can be very dangerous
e_bloc: we ruined everything
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
ContingentCat: Whoopsies
ErynTzun: @TomatoKigu Isn't Asthma fun? /s
TomatoKigu: @ErynTzun …at least it's educational? Was a fun thing to learn lol
RealGamerCow: that's why you don't wear wool suits in nuclear reactors!
ghyllnox: So it's not contagious, but it's dust, so it kinda may as well be
ErynTzun: @TomatoKigu I wish to opt in to learning while also still breathing better
Kata_The_Cat: It's like glitter!
Its_VeeBot: BTW Alex are those tape measure suspenders because if so that's wonderful
ContingentCat: The worst glitter yeah
MacbethSeemsSus: Marie Curie's journal isn't radioactive. It is inundated with radioactive dust however.
DigitalSeahorse: lol
TomatoKigu:
@ErynTzun, I get really bad shakes from mine so in my youth I learned to meditate to calm and slow my breathing so I wouldn't need to take it 9/10 times…so educational!
DigitalSeahorse: I remember being scared by that
TehAmelie: pretty good Swedish accent
ErynTzun: oh Super Mario Sunshine is on Nintendo online now!
DigitalSeahorse:
Bruceski: I remember some news reports of "increase in infant mortality" that was all citeogenesis from a really sketchy source where someone was publishing a book. I actually found the report and it was my first real deep dive into statistics abuse.
SnackPak_: fingers crossed
ghyllnox:
ghyllnox: Ah well
ErynTzun: "We finally have a release date for Super Mario Sunshine on Nintendo Switch Online. The game will be added to the service on August 13, 2026, Nintendo just announced."
MacbethSeemsSus: I love in the Chernobyl tv show where they go "it couldn't be Chernobyl, with this concentration they'd have to be blown open"
DigitalSeahorse: so we cleaned up what we didn't have to?
TomatoKigu: smh Ian, it's "Atomic batteries to power; turbines to speed."
DigitalSeahorse: BOOM
TehAmelie: @MacbethSeemsSus followed by "they're not answering the phone" *teeth drying*
DigitalSeahorse:
boom
s0lesurviv0r: imagining nuclear science as that scene in Galaxy Quest "guys the red thingy is headed toward the green thingy"
Drasvin: Is the tube heater glowing? Or would that require turning off the set lights to check?
MacbethSeemsSus: @TehAmelie *immediately goes for an iodine tablet*
DigitalSeahorse: they're still using some of the old subway cars
Nigouki: the new Bombardier streetcars did not arrive well
TomatoKigu: …do they still sell iodine tablets
the_walking: the MBTA in Boston still has a blacksmith
DigitalSeahorse: TomatoKigu I got mine for free by asking the local power plant for them
Nigouki: there's a famous Toronto Star article about how bad those first streetcars were that has a quote from a TTC tech saying they have to fix so many misaligned parts that it's "like a fucking dwarf forge here"
DigitalSeahorse: for living within 50km
7gorobei: san francisco fire dept has its own ladder maker as they use wooden ladders exclusively because it will crack long before it breaks. aluminum ladders will fail without much warning.
a__travisty: Note that radiometric dating (for carbon dating etc) relies on radioactive decay of specific isotopes, so aren't affected in the same way (radioactive events will generate one or a few particular types of radioactive material)
ErynTzun: I work for a telecom, there is some decades old equipment still in use. The uhh, let's just say some long distance land line equipment was only very recently retired in the last few years.
MacbethSeemsSus: Did anyone see the story, where the CEO of Imax said they don't know how to make new 70mm Imax projectors cause they lost the plans
TomatoKigu: …we got servers from 2005 still used in production…some business just keeps using things until they crumble
e_bloc: that was cool
ProcyonFlynn: I'm imagining the art you could do with that many sparklers. But probably a bit of a nightmare to drive 100 spark plugs.
ErynTzun: And god getting rid of all the old land line equipment is priority not only to switch to fiber but because of all the freaking copper theft
ghyllnox: TTSF X The Long Game

lamina5432: gnight
DigitalSeahorse: hehehehhe
emilevitt:
ThrinagaBattleheart:
G'night all! 
a__travisty: Also, the reason the steel has the issue being radioactive is because air from the atmosphere is used for cooling/ventilation during the steel making process
