Ask yourself: If you wanted to bring manufacturing to the US, would you reduce tariffs on smartphones and computers that are fully made abroad, or cut tariffs on the intermediate inputs used by American manufacturers?

Need post #cat pics.
Here's Beans in silhouette abusing the window blinds again.

Monkey-tailed #cat

A black cat gives the camera a snarky look. Her tail is mostly straight up and despite her facing the camera, her tail is still ridiculously long.

This comment:
"...trying to turn an XT motherboard to SMP. I noticed the 8087 and 8088 almost had the same pinout, and using a pair of 74LSxx chips solder on top of it with the 8088 pins bent, I managed to run a second 8088 inserted into the 8087 socket. I had to invert its A19 pin so that it could boot to a RAM address that I could control (just below 512kB) before I released the RST pin. I had zero experience with SMP by then and figured nothing in my MS-DOS was designed to support this."

Caught the Momma cat this morning! Dropped her off at the SPCA to get spayed.
This is the mother to the kitten we took in three weeks ago. #Cat

Beans takes a short rest from playing "Chase the Paper Ball" on the hardwood court (the living room).
