#VCFEast2026 was a success for #FujiNet. Lots of people saw our diverse #retrocomputing platforms and are starting to understand that we want to bring a useful network adapter to their favorite #atari8bit #Apple2 #TRS80CoCo #MSDOS and more systems.

It is possible to hold two conflicting ideas in your head, and to be able to traverse between them, without losing one's sanity. This is the mark of intelligence, and ironically, it can and should be taught.

This is why my critique of LLMs isn't about the utility or inherent limits of large language models, but of its explicit consumption of raw materials.

I posit the same reaction you see when an artisan's labor is industrialized, is the same thing happening here, both in mechanism and reaction. When our survival is predicated on our ability to market our skills, is it any wonder that any threat to that is met with utter derision by those who invested in the art?

Scritti Politti - "Perfect Way" (1985)

https://youtu.be/cLxIB_lrwk0

This song makes the part of my brain that used to do music production/engineering/arranging/composing/programming light up like a Christmas tree. So perfectly/carefully done.

Listen with headphones. Details.

"Why do you use #Wayland instead of #X11?"

Because #X11 could never stably capture 60Hz from either my capture card, or my screen at 60Hz.

When you're trying to demo things that rely on perfect frame synchronization, it's important.

Soylent is now sold out across the board, even from their own site; available only for subscribers. Availability is 3 weeks away.

An odd economic indicator, yes. But shit is about to get weird.

I seem to remember that the #PPG #WaveComputer 360 only had the first 10 wavetables (Resonant 1 to Add Harm) in the TONR ROMs.

Can anyone verify if this is the case? It's been long enough (several decades!) I can't remember.
