things continue to continue apace (Patreon)

I looked at my last post and realized it's been just about a month, and I'm not gonna go back and reread my last few posts so maybe I'm repeating myself, but in short this has been a weird year, lots going on in my personal life (nothing bad, just occupying a lot of brain cycles) and I've been having a mix of focus issues and just a really, really, really bad case of writer's block + complicated-topic-itis.

I'm still working on the script about the TEMPEST machine, it's just very involved and i had to do a lot of research - but also do a lot of work just figuring out how to talk as un-impactfully as possible on a subject I don't really know that much about. This one really needs to be "for entertainment purposes only," where nobody's likely to take anything I say as gospel, and you'd be surprised how hard it is to pull that off while still being entertaining.

With that said, I'm actually hoping to shoot this next week, but one thing I could really use, if anyone has it, is pics of one of the IBM TPC IV keyboards that went with these machines. I have great pics of one of the monitors, but the keyboards are really tough to find. The only examples I can find are on Deskthority and Reddit and the uploaders aren't replying to my requests for permission; I just sent out another one, maybe that'll pay off, but if you happen to have one of these or can find one, uploaded by someone who hasn't dropped off the face of the planet, that'd be appreciated.

Video soon. Thanks!
