Garacesh Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Anyone have any recollection of this? Nope, but all I can think of is You Can't Get Ye Flask!
bald_pig Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Anyone have any recollection of this? [ATTACH=CONFIG]43222[/ATTACH] It's not Grannies Garden is it?
TechMofo Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 It's not Grannies Garden is it? It is indeed! Fond memories of that, and also 'Podd'
bald_pig Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 It is indeed! Fond memories of that, and also 'Podd' [ATTACH=CONFIG]43223[/ATTACH] I've never played it, but I watched Ashens play it on a live stream recently.
unixman_again Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 This might be a bit obscure - think of the numbers 0 - 15. The actual size is 55mm x 8mm diam. We were issued with them but I never knew anybody who actually used one.
synaesthesia Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Looks like a number punch tool although that's more from vehicles than IT
mikeprice Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 err - wild guess does in turn a thingy thus setting/unsetting a bit on a whatsit
bald_pig Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 It's a security bit for something, I have similar looking bits in my toolkit.

JJonas Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Is it a rotary DIP switch tool? isn't that normally called a screwdriver?
3s-gtech Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Does it look like a screwdriver? I mean for certain older rotary switches, not the little plastic surface mount things you get now.
unixman_again Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Is it a rotary DIP switch tool? Correct! On the back of IBM SCSI devices was a rotary dip switch to set the channel number. You could turn it with a pair of pliers, which is what we used.
Dos_Box Posted May 23, 2017 Author Posted May 23, 2017 See if you can guess what this is for, not what it is, as they come in many forms:

Dos_Box Posted May 23, 2017 Author Posted May 23, 2017 Ah. I was going to say licensing dongle. Nope, but a serial dongle would have made a good one to guess on here For our younger members, yeah, they were a thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_protection_dongle
Dos_Box Posted May 24, 2017 Author Posted May 24, 2017 is it an asic bit coin mining cluster thingy? It is indeed a mining array. This one is based on usb dongles. I'm out of the office ATM but will post up pics of the whole thing tomorrow. The house based arrays are very impressive too.
LeMarchand Posted May 24, 2017 Posted May 24, 2017 i gots one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0nyOyrprIs* *Actually have no idea how many I got (probably 1 too) but always wanted an excuse to use that. 1
