Pleasantly surprised I can measure this timing difference on my cheap scope; In both cases this is a chain of a pair of inverters in a 74LS04 package; the difference between the two captures is just the length of breadboard wire between the 1st and 2nd inverter; the first is about 1cm and the 2nd is about 20cm; so that's about 0.5ns difference measured which is reasonable - and surprisingly good for a 500MS/s scope.
(The yellow is input from a sig gen, blue is op of 2nd inverter).

An oscilloscope showing two falling edge waveforms. The blue one is delayed by a few ns relative to the yellow. There's some nasty ringing.
Like the other one with some different timings

The drumbeats of possible U.S. war against Cuba just got noticeably louder.
A federal grand jury in Florida on Wednesday indicted 94-year-old former Cuban President Raúl Castro on charges of murder and conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals.
The charges stem from orders he allegedly gave as defense minister in 1996 to shoot down two civilian rescue aircraft that were searching for Cubans fleeing the island on rafts.
The downing of the planes killed three U.S. citizens and one U.S…

@… I enjoyed a killing on Kubuntu 26.04 a day or so ago.
IIRC free memory and swap were nearly exhausted (unrelated to ARC) due to VirtualBox throwing a wobbly with a FreeBSD guest, following a disrupted connection to an old mobile hard disk drive on USB, which I use (with OpenZFS) to store the virtual hard disks for many of my test machines.
I feared…

One of the nice things about not having ads or any kind of revenue from my site is that I no longer get the diamond-pressure bum-hole puckering feeling I used to get when I had a hosting company and a site would go down. I don’t even have monitoring set up and it’s freeing.
But go kick an LLM in the dick for stealing so much of my shit that you can’t read it except in some inaccessible pay-for-wrongness shitty chat venue.
