imo they should let me have a portable vhf radio for no reason other than autism

listening to london vts on marine vhf channel 14 (156.7 mhz). the signal is very clear actually. i guess it's because it's from the river which is not so far from here and it's also downhill

AM 136.350 MHz

London City information Alpha, time 1820. Automatic! Runway in use, 27. Ground, is closed. Transition level, flight level 75. Surface wind 210, 13 knots, varying between 180 and 240 degrees. Visibility 10 kilometre (or more). Scattered 2400 feet. Broken 3200 feet. Temperature +16. Dewpoint +10. QNH, 1009. Threshold QFE, 1008. Acknowledge receipt of information Alpha. And for departures, advise aircraft type on first contact.

cool!!!!! could i add it to duin meow :3

that's really nice design :3

this is so pretty i need my duin poster to be something like this

thinking about a hardware varvara computer. with like homemade chips and stuff
i imagine it'd have an "uxn cpu" that would communicate through busses with the main memory and a "device controller" . the device controller would also be able to interrupt the cpu with a particular address to jump to, except it isn't really an interrupt because in uxn land generally everything runs to completion before doing anything else? i suppose you could try having the cpu save its context (mostly just the stacks) for real interrupts but it might cause problems with any code that modifies itself a lot or expects memory not to change under its feet

tech guy at the nhs says: "Public repositories materially increase the risk of unintended disclosure of source code"

uh . yeah if you make your source code public it will be disclosed to the public

i want to punch substack in the face

so many people writing their nice blogs on there but its like. you are writing your documents on a centrally owned nazi supporting Platform that yells at me about cookies and newsletters Every Single Fucking Time . it's not so good for the reading experience aside from anything else

new plan: just push obs (+ maybe superconductor or something like that) as hard as possible

nevermind casparcg server is a piece of shit annoying software they're like "building this is only supported on ubuntu, we also have a docker build process but it probably won't work" and there's so many dependencies and a lot of them are for x11 shit which i don't want to install tbqh

thinking about. learning casparcg. it would be so funny to do super overengineered twitch streams where it's actually a whole ass ccg system instead of just boring obs. also that's a super employable skill i feel

there's also fennel, a lisp dialect that transpiles to lua :3

thinking about making a new uxn+varvara implementation in somewhat-portable c with the intention being to run it on various shitty devices such as our calculator or like. a tangara if we had one

a while ago i did attempt to make such a thing for our calculator specifically but it was horribly very slow and buggy (as in it could run one particularly simple graphics test programme at like 10 fps with various wrong pixels lol)

i also kind of want to make some kind of web archive/mirror where i can go in there and tell it to archive a particular site and it'll just start up wget in archive mode with all the other nice flags and like a 1 second delay and just slowly download all the stuff and then email me when it's done or something and put it online

i would also like to point out something cool ,, twibright who came up with ronja also are the creators of the famous 'links' web browser
