Built a cursed thing.
Used that to make something way more cursed.
Used that abomination to do something normal.

If you didn't want your fiber optic cables to be eaten, why did you make them so chompable? blobhajmlem

thought i forgot the grocery list and went "oh no did i forget to add it to my inventory?"

navigating all the doublespeak of capitalism's siloing off of human culture is nauseating.

the system is rigged. people are forced to participate in a toxic culture of work.

maybe a quick project could be a lil common lisp newsletter program

maybe it will have a web interface. maybe.

the autumn equinox was yesterday? wow that means there's only about 1 month before the autumn lisp game jam starts! put on a cozy sweater, eat a slice of apple pie, and organize your parentheses so you're ready to go when the jam begins!

I have to say, CRT filters on modern emulators are *amazing*; it's been years since I looked at any of them.

This just has the CRT filter, no other filter (e.g. no NTSC filter), so it looks like what a good RGB SCART cable might give you on a PVM or high-end consumer CRT.

Make sure you view this not zoomed out/in. Make sure to view the images at their exact size (that's why I provided some cropped examples).

I'm a purist. I always prefer hardware, on a real CRT. But this is pretty damn close!

@vidak
The Pico 2 is even beefier. I hope they fix the pin latch up problem though. I want to use it for a Smalltalk system but the Pico 1 isn't quite enough.

For those of you have doubted the use of the term 'Corporate Welfare' here is some pretty strong proof.... UK corporate tax breaks will likely cost ยฃ20bn more than they generate over the next five years (even the Treasury agrees they will cost more)

Lets be clear; the UK state (taxpayers) are subsidising corporations, while also offering policy & fiscal measure intended to 'maintain' their profits.

This is welfare for corporations!

Freeloaders?

What is ?

Simply put, a mobile phone whose interface is @signalapp . My initial plan is to start with a and install only enough Linux on it to run Signal. The purpose is to create a device that secures the endpoint to the same degree in which Signal itself is secure, and that there is no chance for O/S, vendor, other applications, etc. to do any shenanigans with your private communications.

The reason the Web became ubiquitous was because it was open and freely published, with no patents or royalties.

The more paywalls we introduce, the more subscriptions we tolerate, the more siloed our data - our planet - and our lives - become.
