AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
A Fediverse server that supports Gemini, Gopher, Finger, and Guppy.
This is exactly what I asked about earlier.

looks pretty good to me
bad idea: A tool that takes a JPEG and turns it into a GIF that emulates how slowly it would download at 56k speeds
It turns out copying 128gb of TV shows to a tiny all-metal USB flash drive heats it up a surprising amount.
40.2°C, that's 104°F. Hot to the touch!
QBasic off a boot disk is an interesting IDE experience.
Because it has to spin up the floppy drive to read the help file, it means every time you hit F1 the whole system freezes for a couple seconds before you get any help.
it really encourages you to remember how the SCREEN statement works, since it takes a while to look it up!
Does anyone have any youtube suggestions for recreational electronic repair on laptops?
I've been watching people like My Mate Vince, Joey Does Tech, and TronicsFix, but they focus more on things like PS5s and Nintendo Switches and such, only occasionally doing laptops, and having a really bad success rate when trying to fix them.
Is there anyone who goes through fixing laptops and hopefully has more success?
Thinkin' about doin' some new art for @SDF . It's been in the back of my head for a while to do something with the Macross operators, but I had this particular idea while watching the ITS bootcamp orientation video the other day. With all the bootcamps, maybe SDF needs a recruitment poster!
But who should be on it? Misa? Claudia? Vanessa? ...?
Electronic devices
- Which you only use occasionally
- Which have internal batteries which drain if you only use them occasionally, and
- Which when the battery is drained, require being charged for 20 minutes before they become available for wired use
#OpenBSD 7.6 is out on mirrors!
If it's not available on your usual mirror, check another one :)
This one has the file https://ftp.fr.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.6/
One of those days where you need to grep through 1TB of crap to find a file.
If you're interested in breaking into music theory, I cannot recommend @bd's cheatsheet enough.

I hit View, Apply Theme, Get More, and got Metal Lion. Look at those chunky dark scroll bars!

"Data centers and their associated transmission networks have become a primary driver of global energy consumption. At present, this accounts for 3% of global consumption, emitting as much CO2 as Brazil."
"A rack of traditional servers in a data center runs on 7 kilowatts of electricity, while a rack of AI servers with increased processing power uses 30-100 kilowatts."
😳 Wow that's a lot more energy.

i now have in my possession, tangara with 100% production parts number one
gosh i wish mozilla's browser, "fire fox" still existed. remember that thing? back in the early '10s it filled me with such optimism. tragic that it then died suddenly, and so young. at least we can reminisce about it and experience only fondness, happy memories, and hope for future projects
