There is a new #MSX book that I definetely have to buy:

So much hinges on #Germany next week. Will they see the bigger picture with ethics and spine? Will they become another fascist satrapy and so the EU bow to the USA hegemon as it goes to hell in a way not fully seen in generations? Please, Germans, stand for what is good.
Hey does anyone here know of or offer community-style hosting for a #WriteFreely instance. I don't have any objection to supporting write.as per se, except that $6/mo for hosting a personal blog with very basic features is outrageous. I'm willing to pay 20-25USD/yr for something like this, otherwise I'll just end up sticking it on a VPS somewhere and self-hosting.
#commonLisp / #lisp #writing locations, semi-companion to the weekly show.
You can do me one better and respond with you own insights.
Also, what were the names of funkwhale but for writing fediverse apps?
Boost for a broad opinion if you don't mind.
@screwtape i was actually going to suggest write.as -- i could spin up an instance for you on my hardware. that way, no fees?
that half hour of extra sleep between 6am and 6.30am made today possible
jesus said to peter, build your church on a solid foundation
my entire woken existence today is built on that thirty minutes of dozing

“I dug deep and found the most advanced VHS archiving project around: VHS-Decode. The short version is you solder wires into a VCR to extract as close to the raw tape signal as possible. From there, you are doing the decoding of the image in software. If you wanna see what a freakishly clean encode upscaled to 4K looks like on a tape from 1987 of The Cure on the BBC, check this shit out.
From there, I would just compulsively buy stuff that had no good encode.”

🐴 Surely computers crashing is a bad thing
🐇 it says here I've got to overwrite this device driver with farting noises, haha that's a little odd but nobody's objecting so I guess it's ok~
@screwtape i like the magazine title
i would not necessarily choose medium as the newsletter/magazine platform--but building a publication with a large following is a good idea right now
is there some other way to reach you online? other than lambdamoo or here on the fedi?
A good workaround finally allows me to use the Cardputer uLisp Machine, a lovely card-sized microcontroller system that runs uLisp. If any Emacs wizard has any advice on how to fix the remaining minor echo issue mentioned in the post, I'm interested.

Prices have been reduced once again, for Libreboot T480 and Libreboot 3050 Micro sold on https://minifree.org/
I previously increased prices earlier in February 2025, because sales went insane in December/January, causing backlog.
My backlog has been clear lately. Reduced -£200 on 3050, -£100 on T480.
Libreboot replaces proprietary BIOS/UEFI, offering better security and more power to the user; your choice of Debian Linux, other distro or a BSD.
I sell Libreboot, and Libreboot accessories.
my airport situation is getting........ complicated
![A continental and international airport in OpenTTD labeled as terminals 1 and 2. The intercontinental terminal is fed by maglev trains and a large bus and truck station, and a metro line carries passengers and goods between terminals 1 and 2.
