My first computer (sorry no personal photos--this made its way to the junk heap around the mid 80s).
Red rectangle around computer (Rockwell 6502) used to enable polyphony (play more than one note at a time,. arpeggiator programs, etc. ). Yellow rectangle around late 70s cassette recorder used to store programs. Programs up to 2K in size, programmed in hexadecimal via key pad, machine language, not fun, so you wanted to store programs on tape lol.
I was supposed to get off at noon, but I decided to do some prep work for my TMAP upgrade and ran into two separate problem that wasted the whole afternoon.
One of the problems was caused by moi (yep I made a mistake) when building the stack files and selected the wrong Solaris platform. Wasted a lot of time on fixing that.
The other problem: I got an SNC error from installer.
Found a workaround by telling the installer SNC_ENABLED = 0. Don't ask me. It's SAP.
Belarusian Air Forces have used fighter jets to shoot down Russian Shahed drones that entered its airspace
IAEA Director General to visit Ukraine next week to assess developments at Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant

not good ....
General Staff of armed forces of Ukraine: during air combat, while repelling Russian missile attack, one of F-16 of Air Forces of Ukraine crashed, pilot killed.
The thing about Trump's "latest" dead soldier fiasco at Arlington National Cemetery that I find creepiest/weirdest is not that Trump broke a law again, violated a policy set by law again, his shoved a Sergeant who tried to stop him...
It's the Adam's Family photo of them all posing over a soldier's grave and Trump giving the thumbs-up sign.
Kroger Co. hiked prices more than needed to account for inflation.

The thing is, executives all over the country announced similar things on earnings calls. This was not a secret.
#Ukraine
Kursk Offensive: Russian locals as well as Russian soldiers are looting stores in Rylsk, a city currently under Kremlin control. Ukrainian forces are entrenched in Korenevo, about 20km southeast.
Kremlin's well-kept secret that most Russians live in abject poverty is unraveling.
