James against the machine<p>Hello vintage computer friends... I have a lil SGI O2 workstation with a Dallas clock chip — it's the cheeky type of chip with an internal battery. I do Not Like This.</p><p>Are they known to leak? Do we remove the battery from the chip? Replace the chip with something else?</p><p>Thank you, brain friends!!</p><p><a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vintagecomputing</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/SGI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SGI</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/O2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>O2</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/silicongraphics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>silicongraphics</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/hivemind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hivemind</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>help</span></a> <a href="https://noise.j-w.au/tags/thankyousomuch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thankyousomuch</span></a></p>
