#edinburgh is so scientific, they have fractional platform numbers. At least it's easier to remember than "Platform 0.36787968862663154".

I hope one day someone 3D models a recreation of the #toshiba #libretto 110CT case plastics that I can get 3D printed. They just...crumble. :(

Sharp, pointy, and safely stowed. Turns out I have three carving knives. One is in the drawer now...

I can see why Tormek include a pack of sticking plasters with their machines.

Which pad is which? #BSBACM edition.
First we trace out the power pads...

There are 52 bond pads and 48 pins, so 4 of those pads need to double up...

Maybe my expectations are too high but these look better

Can't say I'm impressed with the focus stacking on this one.

The last thing I expected when looking up a piece of chip art[1] at lunchtime was to find that it's Fat Freddy's Cat, from the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.

I guess the Inmos engineers needed a break after finishing the chip layout.

How I spent my lunch break: no electroboom, only Chef Excellence.
And a lot of blunt knives suddenly becoming "great, now I need another knife block" sharp.

And I thought Secure Beneath The Watchful Eyes was a bit dystopian.

I wonder what algorithm GIMP uses for "colour to grey". It seems to be slow, but on this chip at least, it's really good at 'seeing through' the dirt left over from delayering.
