Know anyone that might have a use for some components that would otherwise go into the trash?
I could foot the shipping costs (Europe), if the same amount gets donated to KiCad or something?

Yay, stuff that went to space came back today!
During live streams, (once again) Twitch chat can now "send" me candy--can I just say this is the most delicious debugging I have ever done?
Sometimes it is hard to imagine how much energy goes into selecting a $1.50 purchase.

Under the microscope, the Soviet chip is almost identical to the Intel 8086. First image is the Soviet chip, second is the 8086.

Here's a die photo of the 8086 using the color scheme from Apple's M1 chip. It amuses me to parody Apple's gradient by applying it to vintage chips.
