Fully Charged

The charger malfunctioned… – How is that even possible? – It is not. Either it’s a short-circuit or it is by default. – Was it a short-circuit? – No, not in my opinion (everything else is working just fine; computer, battery and the rest of the grid, that would be my apartment’s entire electrical system).… Continue reading Fully Charged

Moving Parts

The actual lift machinery. I’ve never personally seen them in action before. It is what you never get to see on-top of any lift; they’re constantly revolving/moving in either direction.

The speed is there and it has been for quite some while. + Gbit Ethernets, that is as fast or faster than the discs? – You need power… Continue reading Why Can’t You Write An OS Working In Parallel?

It’s Bizarre

Most of the time it is quite practical, then again at times it is just bizarre. And I can’t really get used to it. I’ve been there once; it was in September the 28th, 2019. I still get recognized and greeted like I’m a regular visitor. The reality however is that I’ve been there once… Continue reading It’s Bizarre

Not On The Wall X

Yet some discarded artefacts. A multi-paper connecting/assembling device also know as a stapler and a circular in-line four hole cutting ditto, for paper that is, know as a paper hole punch machine. And drawing material; larger sized papers. Thrown away as in the trash. DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED BY ISABERGS VERKSTADS AB HESTRA SWEDEN RAPID® ISABERG… Continue reading Not On The Wall X
