Me: oh, we could buy an oscilloscope!

[scribblesonnapkins@mastodon.social]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet I regularly buy them at the ham radio flee market at MIT and repair them for fun. I have about 10 of them now. What are you looking to measure?

[phurd@infosec.exchange]

@sophieschmieg power analysis, fault injection

[phurd@infosec.exchange]

@sophieschmieg if you needed an excuse to go 1GHz+

[scribblesonnapkins@mastodon.social]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet the slowest is 20MHz and was a gift from a college friend. The fastest is 50GHz.

How can we scope oscillations instead?

@sophieschmieg @saraislet yes, that is also me and @irene

[catsalad@infosec.exchange]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet I mean, it pays to be prepared!

@catsalad @sophieschmieg @saraislet

I got one of these several years back. I did not regret it. Super portable!

@vieuxnez @sophieschmieg @saraislet See? You should definitely buy one :3

@catsalad @vieuxnez @sophieschmieg @saraislet When your partner is into role playing electrical engineering, going along can result in a power coupling.

@icing @catsalad @vieuxnez @sophieschmieg @saraislet this post made me actually groan. good job /gen

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@icing @catsalad @vieuxnez @sophieschmieg @saraislet but is it directional?

[multiplex@hachyderm.io]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet @dan yup

[genehack@dementedandsadbut.social]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet I go back and forth about needing an oscilloscope…

[bjorndown@mastodon.social]

@genehack Same! Then I realise that I cannot describe what I would with it. Other than "electronics... stuff".

[itgrrl@infosec.exchange]

@genehack @sophieschmieg @saraislet 😜

[grumpydad@infosec.exchange]

@sophieschmieg @saraislet Well why wouldn't you need an oscilloscope?
