<whitequark> TD-Linux: i can i guess
<whitequark> ej5: cross section request: floppy drive head
<Sarayan> interesting, the ym2203 has some patterns they reuse a lot
<whitequark> uhhh
<whitequark> i accidentally bought 25 YM2149
<Sarayan> in comparison in the 68000 and the wd1772 they're custom almost everywhere
<Sarayan> 2149? Interest level is... low
<whitequark> yes ;_;
<Sarayan> I was wondering, do you have any visibility on when you'll be able to do nice die shots?
<whitequark> i need to figure out something with the scope
<whitequark> which is currently not at here
<whitequark> the problem is that i can't leave the apartment
<Sarayan> makes things much harder indeed
<whitequark> i'll arrange something soon
<Sarayan> there's no real hurry, I was just wondering
<Sarayan> I'm not at all interested in pushing you into panic attacks
<whitequark> don't worry, i'll do that just fine completely on my own
<whitequark> the other thing is that it's not yet clear if i'll be able to do what i want with my existing scope
<whitequark> i might want to buy an old soviet scope
<whitequark> like people in the west do with bh2, it's a somewhat similar one
<Sarayan> interesting
<Sarayan> I have a total of zero competence in that area :-)
<ej5> whitequark, lol those things are rock hard and i'd need special equipment to cross section
<whitequark> ej5: huh really?
<ej5> yeah they have to be wear resistant
<ej5> probably made from some sort of ceramic
<fseidel> LOL, any chance Ryu Takami had just seen Second Reality when he composed this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgVSbdRHHqA
<fseidel> or is that little riff more common than I thought
<TD-Linux> whitequark, I could send you some... I have 20 ;_;
<superctr_> i'm not sure Second Reality ran on PC-98s though, unless he had an IBM PC
<superctr_> i noticed in the X68000 MDX archives a while ago, a few Amiga MODs got ported so maybe there's a chance that more western demoscene stuff got noticed over there
<Sarayan> https://og.kervella.org/ym2203/ym2203/#x=25825&y=22071&z=1
<Sarayan> finished one big block
<whitequark> Sarayan: you didn't apply the workaround for scaling?
<Sarayan> wq: I must have missed it
<whitequark> ohhh darn
