"Un’onda anomala di carta e #debiti ha travolto il sistema economico grazie all’impiego dei “#derivati”. Si trattava di strumenti “eleganti” per mettere in circolazione di tutto, inclusi debiti e titoli spazzatura. I derivati hanno consentito di trasformare il debito di una società in opportunità di consumo per una #famiglia, che quindi ha creato debito a sua volta. "

Carolyn put that cube there to hold her laptop while she worked, NOT as a cat seat. So Clint flipped the script. Now "cat seat" means "seat made out of cat".

This ATI Radeon 9800 graphics card has worked faultlessly from September 2003 to August 2010. It decided to start displaying funny lines and multi-coloured spots on my screen the other day, making it look like someone had gone a bit bonkers and had slung various colours of paint around on my Windows XP desktop. Now, I do like pretty colours, but NOT to the extent that I cannot read the screen properly! So, it was time for the card to be replaced with an identical "new" one. Still, after nearly seven years, you expect things to go wrong. I reckon computer years are measured in something like cat years or dog years. This graphics card is probably about 70 years old in ATI Radeon 9800 years, then. Here's one last look at it for "old time's sake."

The PCB pictured is from an IBM Model M keyboard, specifically a M5-1 made in 1993. The M5-1 has a small trackball mouse just above the cursor keys. This board is for the mouse. The keyboard's mouse recently quit working, so I took it apart to diagnose the problem. I think the capacitor pictured (center; metal cylinder) has failed based on what looks like corrosion on the board below the capacitor. They can leak, and the leakage damages the board.
On the other side of the board is the largest attached chip. It is probably the processor that implements getting the mouse input and making it available to a computer system using the PS/2 protocol. When this board is connected to the other board in the keyboard, the clock and data lines for the mouse are held low. Given the protocol, that is a sensible thing to do while the processor isn't yet ready to communicate, but it never changes. The bad capacitor may be the cause.
