 It's amazing to me that Blutengel still releases music, and it's really just as good as when you were 18 putting on your battle boots, studded choker, eye liner and getting ready to head to the crappy goth club with sticky floors where the dj is still only ever playing VNV Nation, and, and- @cancel whenever I get to use the trick of making enums to define C89 constants, I think about you and how much of a neat trick it is <3 Bikes are cool and all, but I think it's time we normalize stilts as a mean of getting around.     @computersandblues Incan go to Berlin but I’d be very interested to get in touch with someone knowledgeable about permacomputing who also speaks French. Any contact to recommend? For every 10 people who contact us with solutions for us to try but that that they haven't tested to problems they don't understand, there's one person who's spot on and makes welcoming these conversations totally worth it.  @neauoire but have you considered 50 more solar panels? they'd only weigh like 20 thousand pounds and triple your windage, that's fine, right? ooh what if you bought a brand new macbook. definitely brand new macbooks, then you don't need to think about memory usage anymore. THINK OF ALL THE SLACKS YOU COULD RUN. what's a repairability? accessibility includes supporting old hardware, nobody has the same economical status as you to afford a new machine
 Sailing into the wind with sunglasses sucks, you soon get a thick crust of salt over the lenses almost immediately.. There has to be a better way. Snow goggles(ilgaak), perhaps?

 @neauoire Back in the day, I used to deliver boats from the Baltic to the UK in late autumn (for the London Boat Show). It often snowed and worse, sleeted. We used to use a motorcycle crash helmet when sailing to windward — in strong winds, the spray/rain/ice would blow aft to the edges of the face glass. Not perfect, but warmer and drier than goggles. Also, the helmet had headphones so we could jack in to a portable Sony cassette player. Discover awesome obscure thing, and of course now, kragen has made 3 implementations of it, wrote 2 books about it, 8 blog posts, 3 rants, 8 rebuttles.. in 1997. @neauoire applies to you too, I keep reading your wiki for things I only tangentially touched and wanted to dig deeper someday, but you beat me to it. I guess the world is just a pyramid of obsessed people reading slightly more obsessed people? Just released the list of changes to the HundredRabbits projects for July 2024, a few days late, we just arrived back into Prince Rupert :>. We had barely set our foot down onto Vanisle for the first time since may, that we hear, shouted from across the water "Pino!!", and surely enough we are dragged into a bar hopping whirlwind across town, but we ended up at the foot of the burnt down burl(biggest one in the wurld!!), as one does. It's good to be back home y'know.  Suggested change to the #uxn macros, some thoughts and ideas. It doesn't break compatibility and should make writing a few things a bit more fun.  @neauoire I’m totally in favor of this backwards compatible change, especially if it means drifblim will get macro support!  @neauoire Regarding the first proposed change, one nice thing about stream processing is that macro-defining macros are easily supported. sailing today to an uninhabited island southeast of curaçao to plunder shipwrecks... hoping to find a new boom for Luma…

  update, on shipwreck plundering: we did not find a new boom… but did excavate a few months’ old wreck- found an anchor chain that is in much better shape than the one we have now. the extraction mission was an insane ordeal involving the four of us dragging the (many hundred pounds worth of) chain in chain-gang fashion across the whole island, some of us wearing backpacks loaded with chain, some of us wrapping huge amounts of it around our bodies. it looked ludicrous I love that Sudre allocated one of the few available 3 syllables Solresol words to the word "merveilles"(wonders). Amazing little garden growing game by Kylep for the Watt Wise Game jam! - Click tile at the bottom, and place it in the garden.  @rek Greater that the Earth's circumference! So, you are circumnavigators in that sense now. sickos.jpg: https://git.phial.org/d6/nxu/raw/branch/main/uxntal.1 (read with `man ./uxntal.1`) @d6 oh my! this is so great. Could you make a patch to some of the repos? I think this would be good for everyone to have around :uxn: @d6 I AM LOVING THIS THING I think the non-imm opcode proper is BRK, it could be BRK* * has no modes. I'm starting to think that maybe trying to make a webring with so little internet connectivity was a bad idea. @neauoire I think I’ve found the pull quote (well, chapter subhead quotation) for the chapter on CSV in the book I’m writing. By way of thank you, here’s my favourite post about CSVs, from Jesse Donat: Falsehoods Programmers Believe About CSVs

@neauoire it's a way to make poetry  @neauoire honestly I love the stupidity of it haha. I use tsv where possible but have modules for both in lua. We use them for the translations in arco as it allowed the translation teams to use Excel which is their normal process. My father in law keeps growing fruits and veggies for us. Now look at that 3.4kg Hokaido we just received :tealheart: |

@neauoire those were good times!
@neauoire, here in Brazil, we had a lot of Aggrotech playing. Brazilian skinheads (!) in the middle of the club. I’m not sure how I survived. VNV Nation was lounge music for after 4 am :)
Good memories of Blutengel, Hocico, and Suicide Commando.
@neauoire I have been so often to our local one that I know almost the entire song pool of both DJs at this point. Neither plays enough darkwave, but you have to take what you get since most places the local scene is basically dead.
