Yes! That dev log would read perfectly. And it would be a popular download on the BBS and early internet gateways.

Talking about it, sharing our stories, making sure people get just how shitty it really is happens to be a great way to set an expectation for change. And there is this: The change, if there is to be one, will have to come from us. A whol

"It won't happen to me." But it could! You may feel it makes sense. And for some of us it may make sense too. What happens when it doesn't and you do not know?

Yes, it is ugly! The thing is bad actors are essentially forcing arguably unethical tools onto people in need. Our current Healthcare struggle is completely unnecessary. A good percentage of our economic struggles are equally unnecessary. T

That argument isn't good enough. And I agree with you it really sucks in the usa. And maybe we all need to be talking to everyone else about fixing that. I'm down for that conversation anytime any day. It is profoundly irresponsib

Seconded. I love this program.

There is a grimy call center where politicians go to dial for dollars. Call books, now databases and dialing programs, filled with people of means, are used to connect people with money to politicians. There are handlers too. People who m

As mentioned, that's not the genuine app in my experience.

I don't think so. While it may be true that new data is coming in at a trickle these days, due to things like Discord, Slack, et al. all locking conversation and context up, as well as the daily volume of chapter is small relative to w

I think about this topic often and am also curious, but not an Apple fanboy, unless we end up talking about the 8 and 16 bit 6602, 65816 based computers. :) The way I see it, Apple has targeted a very specific kind of customer. And these

Yes! And that is precisely the advice I got many years ago. Take your time, get educated, when possible talk to people and get the task done. Over time a lot of best safety practices overlap and blend together and one learns how to be safe

https://youtu.be/Vou2xlJkuoU This desoldering component technique video is well worth your time. Of all the basic electronics skills, doing this has always been challenging, particularly on older equipment where the copper

Yep. ZMODEM was my fave for that reason and it being a tiny bit faster. (I could be mistaken, remembering wrong)

Oh that address brings back memories... ftp.funet.fi Was my first introduction to archive, FTP, and related things. I used to visit a friend at Uni and use his higher baud rate connection, until I got my own. That account was a shell &#x2

Back in the day, Rockwell had a dual 6502 variant in their datebook. Two cores, each basically interleaving memory access. The fun part about 6502 and many friends from that era was memory was direct access, bytes moving in and out every C

There is no frame buffer. The graphics are all drawn by manipulating a few registers in the video chip. Everything is scan lines and cycles. You get a one bit per pixel 40 pixel wide background, a couple of single color 8 bit sprites and

Why have that kind of resource in a keyboard? Some keyboards were made with 4 bit processors. I have yet to look one up and perhaps I should. Pretty much any 8 bit CPU would be luxurious. And low latency due to the single task, respectful

Depublification? Libraries are a great public service. Really, these moves to enshittify otherwise free or modest cost to use public works, can be seen as an encroaching of capitalist ways and means into what are traditionally public ways

Yeah, I did not mean to place the why in front of the basics. The primary is to want to be done. It all starts there. How ending it goes really depends on the person. Take it one struggle at a time. Wash, rinse repeat. Having finished, on

Truth and I would change that statement just a bit: Any * successful * treatment requires the patient to want treatment. In addition, the triggers for it all need to be addressed. Those can be: Simple pain, trauma More complex financial iss

That was based on my tests with color displays from Waveshare, and as we have seen in the comments here, advances have been made. I still see multiple refresh cycles being needed for colors. The metrics are shorter, smaller on the very lat

Seems to me it remains largely true, just with much smaller numbers. That screen is nice! Real progress being made there.

Dramatically low basically equals the single color refresh rate multiplied by the number of base colors used to form color images.

I agree completely with the idea artists need and should get more.
