I added a puppet prototype for my own submission to my own .

Puppets are actually crazy. You just pass her a piece of paper and she does whatever's on it, up to and including possessing you and driving you around if that was an implication of one of the commands you gave her that you didn't really think through.

Was there ever a implementation for the ? Asking for a friend.

Today is my Fediverse cake day!

I've been here for seven years.

Damn.

Cheers @jerry for running this (and several other) fediverse servers!

And cheers to everyone else for the great conversations, info exchanges, memes, and shit posts!

100 commits in the realm of 20 minutes. revolution is nigh! System 301 is nigh!

YOU ARE A TRUE WARRIOR. I AM PROUD OF YOU.

alright got another cpu server added to my 9 grid.

it is a beelink computer.

The grid had a beelink x86_64. raspberry pi arm64 and vm on xeon processors x86_64.

The acme is running on the raspberry pi 4.

the zuke is running on the beelink.

These are the course notes of an Interlisp and LOOPS (Lisp Object-Oriented Programming System) course taught at Ohio State University in the 1980s. The first few dozen pages contain some papers on exploratory programming and the Interlisp philosophy.

Hey @fozztexx, congrats, that's a great achievement!

November 2024 FujiNet RAPID 12 Newsletter

[...] Following the push at VCFMW the biggest development has been the completion of DISKII writes for Apple II on FujiNet. Masterminded by FozzTexx, this turned out to be the biggest PR accepted to-date. It required a lot of coordination and testing across all the Apple II platforms in order to be validated and released— but it was worth it. [...]

I don't suppose the has something equivalent to the PR#n/IN#n from BASIC? On an Apple II it's easy to redirect BASIC so it reads & writes to a serial port allowing remote control of the Apple II from another machine.

On my I've got a program loaded and I'd like to be able to dump the bytes in RAM out a serial port so I can check if any bytes are missing or the wrong value. I need to do it without stomping on the loaded program.

more importantly soldering is fun

i wish i had more things to solder

i partly turned back to hobby coding because it's cheaper than electronics lol

A WELL-FED WARRIOR IS A LETHAL WARRIOR.

Every one of you is precious and wonderful and unique and necessary and deserving of life and love and peace.

Anything your brain does to try to convince you otherwise is a mean trick.

Please try to remember this. Remember it unceasingly.

lol encryption/cryptographic software written in C

and no you're not kidding

C is jank asffffff

to address the climate crisis, use computers that have at most 1 MIPS

cute lil lightweight thin clients just freely telnetting and playing turn based games via packet radio!

yeah bluesky is enshittification, thank you, someone correct on the internet today

just use the fediverse through mastdon or pleroma

family is the only damn thing that matters and the fediverse sure as hell is my family

i think? i kind of understand DATA statements in BASIC now, they seemed a little redundant at first...

but when you pack loads of colour and graphics data into every line, with at MOST two FOR loops you can really jazz up yer BASIC

The arctic seed library was unequivocally a good idea; when you think about it, the fact that stable biospheres exist at all is a fucking miracle. The folks sitting up there in the snow clearly had a lot of time to think about this fact, before they went rogue.

The lab equipment and grow-tanks in the library were intended for testing the long term viability of stored seeds. The giant refrigeration units were mostly there to supplement the natural refrigeration during the height of the brief arctic summers.

After the Diaspora we reconstructed what they did: the gene sequencers in the lab combined all the millions of collected genomes into the Metaseed. Cannibalism of refrigeration coils made a handy linear accelerator to propel soda-can sized metaseed parcels toward dozens of targets in the solar system, and hundreds beyond.

All¹ these verdant worlds are yours.

¹Except Europa, something ate the metaseeds that impacted there.

there are some killer guitar solos in this track. truly a hidden gem. some real pickin' here, son.
