Blow a dandelion seed head and make a wish, but it’s a device blowing.

Right now, I think the sweet spot is getting a Raspberry Pi 400 for USD$50 ( Microcenter).

A Pi400 is a very capable 4GB ram Linux machine, working out of the box. I have a few, each doing a different job. I just ssh to them with a beefier machine plugged on LLMs tools, and it's really fun and exciting.

Then Mini pcs, you can get a good deal here and there, for a more capable machine with a little bit more flexibility.

ESP32s are also awesome and I have been playing with them but not as a replacement of these light linux servers.

I absolutely loved the help docs that came in Borland products. To this day they are my gold standard of documentation and nothing has ever meet them. I learned so much simply navigating their docs. The best part was that they had actual examples that you could see it working, copy/paste modify. To an extent, a taste of open source.

The website at least. Just look for the word "not". LLMs love writing things like "it's not ice cream, is pasta", "you get a full dog, not a cat".

They are here right now, writing comments, upvoting and downvoting.

What about Elegoo Centauri Carbon? I've had my eye on this for some time.

It seems that it's quire more complicated than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caduceus_as_a_symbol_of_medici...

I bought one yesterday from AliExpress. I hope I'm able to install new firmwares on it.

And sometimes 3 can be "every other CEO is doing it, let's do it too. At least we already have the narrative.".

At least they had a decency of avoiding the ambiguity of doing this during April 1st.

Thanks, I had deleted the app from all my devices but not deleted the account. I have deleted my account now too.

I really like this setup:

iPad + Korg microKEY-37 + KORG Gadget 3 + all a bunch of KORG apps

No subscriptions. Keyboard is wireless but no noticeable latency. In my workflow I pretty much never need more keys but if I do I just use a MIDI adapter and plug a larger keyboard.

KORG apps go on 50% sale several times every year.

iPad Pro (4th generation) 2020 here. Life was good then updated OS with liquid glass. Big mistake.

I still remember using Palm OS for the first time and having my little mind blown away because there was no save buttons (at least in the version and apps I was using). You edited a document and that's it, it was saved. Like writing on paper.

Nowadays a lot of applications behave like this but back then it was a very different from everything I had ever used.

I have been playing 0ad, single player, medium/hard difficulty, round-robing all maps, for years now. Great game. I have to try mods one of these days.

The same article in german has some nice animations: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voith-Schneider-Antrieb

I'm deep in the Gridfinity rabbit hole but this seems a good compromise since my 3d printer broke.

https://farm.bot/ exists.

This made me think about another contrast, Hayao Miyazaki. His characters ("heroes" or "villains"), usually are more morally complex and nuanced than the ones you would find in the works I typically see depicted in Hollywood. They are not just good or evil. You may not agree with their actions, but you understand the logic of it.

Let the enshittification begin.

Then you move to the paid plan, then they move ads to the paid plan, then you move to the premium-extra plan, etc.

Thanks for the info, I was looking for this. I have the "Pro Apps Bundle for Education" that I bought years ago and it is an fantastic deal.

If you unlock a lock, that's still a lock.

Also, in light of everything that is happening, is incredible that the top comment on this thread is about some minor semantic definitions.

Oh, I wish I could do something like that for my Nokia N800.

Awesome. I while ago I was playing around some JS graphic/game engine/frameworks and came across Kaboom (now Kaplay) and it stroke me as a really different approach to the whole thing. I am now again playing with it and it's really impressive and fun.

Also, thank you for you tutorials. I have stumbled on some of them too.

Just watched a podcast on this. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-mysterious-death-o...

I was reading the comments trying to find something similar to this. I remember reading a similar explanation. The brain in a ultimate attempt of solving that fatal situation goes deeply thought memories to find anything that could help. Evolutionarily, this would make sense.

50% tariff on Brazil so they stop offering lessons in democratic maturity.

Obsidian + folders (done, wip, todo, trash) + one file per task (and all details and notes inside each file). That's been really good for me.

1. Github. 2. Git was created and used as a version control in the development of the Linux kernel. Some people may correctly think: if it's good enough to be the version control for Linux, it should handle my project.

Intelligence sometimes manifests as doing the wrong thing in the most convoluted way.
