hamamatsu - absolutely OT (08/06/22 19:00:35)
yes, i am late. slightly overworked as usual. had a little drink so... ill make a fool of myself, why not... blast from the past! some 20 years ago (i think...) there was a place we called "the junk". the electronic junk that ended up there was mostly of technion.ac.il origin and/or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rambam_Health_Care_Campus strange things turned up there. starting with simple things like extremely good quality rs232 cables (lmao, that was a thing) DOUBLE shielded and ending with a radium brick that made my hand hot for several hours - intriguing... im guessing some medical imaging device, hopefully at more than half life (yes, i know it doesnt mean much..)... anyway, a rant in itself. but anyway, amongst the things that popped up there were... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:SGI-indigo-front.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:SGI_O2_front.jpg https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Funixhq.com%2Fwebsgt%2FSGI-Indigo-2-Teal.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Funixhq.com%2Fsystems%2Fsgi-silicon-graphics-teal-indigo2%2F&tbnid=aq8uFX9DPfAHCM&vet=12ahUKEwi8wK26u574AhUIghoKHWHECN4QMygDegUIARCpAQ..i&docid=AVR9vn682EXbEM jurassic park anyone? :D damn, i have to post it mainly for myself... pardon me... https://web.archive.org/web/2018*/Nekochan.Net https://gainos.org/~elf/sgi/nekonomicon/ i posted a lot on this forum from these machines *wipes a tear*... they were 2gb scsi hds... im almost crying now... ... but ayway, there were strange things there like managed hubs with optical ports, strange (at that time) SNMP devices, which were all useless for me but i bought them anyway and tinkered with them learning a LOT ;) but the only thing that actually still works is a specific hamamatsu optic detector. that IS AMAZING! ill have to search my pdf library to see what the specs are. it was something very specific for a medical stuff. i never used it for a project though :( ok, enough! night. |
