Someone completely unknown (a random person) asked me: Do you ride? Can I put this sticker on your bike? This was the sticker… Princess Yu or simply Princess.

Bikes & Not Bikes
There are bikes and there are bikes… can you spot her?
Mission Impossible?
This [message] will self-destruct in 30 seconds. I left my bricked mobile device (an official software update made the device completely non-functional) unattended… this is the actual state that I found said device in. Exploded! The pictures don’t really make the utter failure (by design) suffered by the device full justice. It completely broke the… Continue reading Mission Impossible?
Not On The Wall XV
Yet discarded objects. A pair of: Honeywell GLLC01A4J Limit Switches 1NO 1NC SPDT 20 mm. Not On The Wall Series.
0% Front-break Adjusted
Fig 1 Fig 2 Fig 3 1. This is what a worn pair of bike break-pads look like. It is metal-on-metal; two different kinds of metal though. Steel on Aluminium. One is harder than the other and the sound is emanating from metal-on-metal – it beats a bell any time and co-incidentally I don’t have… Continue reading 0% Front-break Adjusted
Not On The Wall XIV
Yet a discarded object. It’s a fully functional Asus K55VD laptop (it booted/started and there was actually an active guest account so I could log in) although the charger was missing and the touchpad was broken (I fixed it). It’s cleaned up and running. Salvage from guarenteed destruction. I simply love the machines. Please see:… Continue reading Not On The Wall XIV
0% Front-break, And There Is This Sound
Metal-on-metal; it is steel on aluminium (hence the sound). However, the important thing is to actually remember the break ratio front-to-back… 0% front-break, maybe 50% back and then there is this sound: Ring my beeee-lllll, ring my bell… There’s no bell or reflectors, fenders, lights or any other safety equipment mounted. No racks, baskets or… Continue reading 0% Front-break, And There Is This Sound

Fugaku
It is a computer and it currently holds the first place on the TOP500 list. It is Japanese. It is three times faster than the second fastest one in the World. The appearance? I am lost for words. How can something, anything; a machine even begin to look like that? The symmetry, the roof, the… Continue reading Fugaku
Not On The Wall XIII
Yet a discarded object. It was not assembled when found. 500W halogen lamp was included. The cover glass actually seems to be plastic so it needs to be changed. The lamp is rated at 350 centigrade… it’s a hot and bright light! Please see: Not On The Wall.
