And now a wonder of nature and the flukes it can do.  Noticed this twig this morning, it had floated in high wind from a tree 20m away, and landed perfectly upright and aligned so that it would wedge into the one tiny hole that would accept it, and hold it in position despite the wind!  Meanwhile I'm fumbling using tweezers, getting jumpers perfectly aligned in awkward spaces!  🙂

cheers, Aus

Thought that would be 256!

 

On another note, I was in the local police station when a call came in on the radio.

"Sergeant, a lady has just shot her husband for walking on her freshly washed floor."

"Have you arrested her?' the sergeant sent back.

"No, sir" was the reply.  "I'm waiting for the floor to dry."

Did you hear about the mathematician who's afraid of negative numbers?

He'll stop at nothing to avoid them.

What do you call a fake noodle?

An impasta.

Why can't atoms be trusted?

They make everything up.

Is Aus worried about telling such corny jokes?

🥺

But not if they made you smile at least a little bit. Or should that be byte?

So I went to my Doctor recently for my routine 1/4 year checkup.  She did the usual tests and finally asked me to lie on my side with pants down and knees tucked up. 

This last test was taking a while so I chatted with, "Doc, how's it all going?  Will I live a long and great life?"

"I doubt it," she said, waving her ringed fingers around whilst her ear-rings jangled. "Mercury is in Uranus".

"I don't go for that astrology nonsense," I said back.

"Neither do I", she explained, "My thermometer's just snapped".

eBay find. I wonder what software this mysterious PLC was programmed with.

Wow--that would be programmed with UPLC, which was an STL-based program that ran in Windows in a DOS window!
I joined Unitronics in 1998, and the first documentation job I did was Axis Movement for UPLC...
Check out the memory on this baby!
Amazing--some of these dinosaurs are actually still up and running
