I hadn’t been watching his activities for a while, but it appears that the known scam artist and unrepentant thief Sean Lee Robinson (also known as Geek With Social Skills) is once again active in vintage computing circles.
Avoid this loser, and don’t get scammed.

Cardinal! I caught you. Getting into bird photos a little bit. This is blurry as it was dark. But still the best cardinal so far.

I have too many wires! What do you guys use for wire organization? I’ve been using these Alex drawers, but this is only half of my wire collection. Maybe I need to cull some of them. Should I put them all in bins and keep them in the garage?

Latest update on my Macintosh LC575 : I replaced the chip with broken legs. It still won’t boot. I am guessing the processor isn’t starting. We are getting power on, but no num lock / caps lock. And no chime. Maybe the ROM area or the cpu area. 🤔 hmm

I spent a lot of time recapping and trying to debug this LC 575 board. I’m getting power on, no chime, but I am not seeing any video :( this was going to be the next video, but I hit a big snag ! Either this is beyond my capabilities, or I need to spend more time working on cleaning the board.

I am having a really hard time tinning these pins on this chip on my LC 575 logic board for my Macintosh. Is this oxidation ? should I just keep scraping with a razor. 🤔
