it's so crowded with crap that it feels like one of THOSE restaurants. "hey Farva, what's the name of that place you like to eat at? the one with all the shit on the walls?" "you mean Shenanigans?"

gonna do a little PCB reverse engineering stream: https://www.twitch.tv/tubetimeus

there are both passive and active systems. passive systems are just two antennas with this air-line coax. active systems use inline amplifiers to boost the signal.

this is also used for ERRCS (emergency responder radio communications system) to allow public safety folks to use their radios even while inside larger buildings.

here's the same air-line coax cable but i've cut it in half. unlike a common TV cable box coaxial that uses a plastic dielectric, this cable uses air as the dielectric, and the spacer just centers the signal line.

ever wonder how you get cell service inside large buildings? they install antennas on the roof and use air-line coaxial cables, like this one, to connect them to antennas on the inside.

guys, this bullshit needs to stop. if you find a bug, share your findings (and file a github issue) instead of trying to make a fast buck.
technically this also violates the open source license which requires you to distribute the source for any modifications you make to the original.

it's an HP 7550, probably the fastest pen plotter ever made. 🤯 This is 50cm/sec. it can go to 60cm/sec with a ballpoint rather than a fiber tip pen.

holy crap this plotter is lightning fast

you have to turn off "connect nearby ends" because it doesn't do right angle corners for some reason, only smooth swoopy corners.

i removed that "plugin" and manually installed the axidraw extensions. why axidraw? it has a hatch plugin as well! problem: this is what it does.
