Technology is an amplifier and what Big Tech amplifies is fascism.

You want to amplify the opposite? Then build, raise awareness about, and help fund the opposite:

Small Tech.

Nyasoc Rides Again

Re-reading https://100r.co/site/weathering_software_winter.html to affirm my intentions with VM/OS.

I know that VM/OS is many times more complicated than UXN. But, it is my hope that the complication can be kept minimal enough that useful and portable software can be written for it.

Plus, I'm still trying to figure out what "implementation first" means, precisely. Maybe I'm reading too far into it.

I think that sharing our completely-real-computer-programs-and-writing by creating them as tangible, shareable objects in a sort of medley of "roleplay" laboratories and places gives us opportunities for real collaboration that are a bit harder if I just say, well, you could download my git and familiarize yourself with the code... So, thank-you for helping get us started!

@vidak
Yeah the DSL would work great for that (maybe not the whole common lisp image thing..).
I've been shy about taking a run at implementing @dump - which I will do in a way that can be loaded into either of lispmoo2 or lambdamoo (but I will need to lay some groundwork inside lambdamoo for this to work without hitch, and the consuming-of-common-lisp will be verboten for those purposes, like your 8 bit port idea)
@dig @gnemmi

@screwtape @dig @gnemmi just at work rn, i have been following along! very impressive work!!

i have been thinking of adapting this to 8 bit commodore LOGO

@screwtape @gnemmi i am confused why are you looking at me?


Okay I am hearing your RESOUNDING SILENCE
so I wrote a README and I encourage you to follow Egbert's lead as a hashtag game on the mastodon, tagged with ; in which case I will add you to the honorary jam roll and your constructions to the git, and update the current map, like I did for Egbert.

Questions solicited but tbh construct something as well here or there plz

The graphviz dot graph of the world, but now with EGBERTS addition to it. Thank you Egbert, firing on all cylinders. Egbert connected Egbert's GARDEN to screwtape's MOUNTAIN-TRAIL, attaching to the directed graph only there. Egbert's Garden is also connected to EGBERTS-HOUSE. A graphviz dot graph (idk, ask some bell labs people) having three separate clusters: SCREWTAPES, GAME0 and GAME1 filled with various rooms, and directed edges connecting both within and between clusters. It's grayscale and a bit messy. Edge sources are speculatively labelled with compass directions, that were not enforced.

Welcome to Mastodon! Just put whatever is on yer mind in the little box there and hit TOOT! Someone will be by shortly to admire your musings.

you make threads because you're on an instance with a 500 character limit
i make threads because i have adhd and keep coming up with additions to posts after posting them

we are not the same

Hyperlink text should make sense when read out of context. Screen reader users can navigate from link to link, and can listen to links in a list. When navigating this way, only the link is read. So "click here" or "read more" won't make sense.

Praise be! Bike facility maintenance is now a thing one can choose in the Find It Fix It tool for ! https://sdotblog.seattle.gov/2024/11/20/bike-facility-maintenance-reporting-find-it-fix-it-app/

It’s interesting how the tone of the news reporting on NPR hasn’t changed one iota.

“Nonchalant” is how I would describe it.

“Today, Texas announced it is donating the land to build the first of many camps for the mass deportations.”

Ho hum. Just another normal day in America. Carry on.
