@gordoooo_z Ha-ha, MC303 was perfect for that! Maybe it's a part of its appeal, ESX-1 is a very versatile machine and maybe because you can do literally anything some things are not very straightforward, MC303 on the other hand is very limited, it's what they call a ROMpler, you can't upload new samples into it, but the ones it has work perfectly, once you have used it, you start recognizing it a lot especially in all sorts of experimental music.

@Rezard Ну на самом деле ничего особо глупого в этом нет — это же ради эффекта. Клиппинг или что там… 🤔

I've always been wondering if there is something like that on Gemini. Now I know there is, and it looks amazing!

My personal TUI favourites:
gomuks the Matrix client (https://github.com/tulir/gomuks)
tut the Fedi/Masto client (https://github.com/RasmusLindroth/tut)
and amfora the Gemini browser (https://github.com/makew0rld/amfora)
All of them are written in Go so they are really easy to build if your platform is supported by Go.

@theorytoe They decided to let you off the hook for once. But only this time 🤫

@gordoooo_z Not my cup of tea — too "retro" to me, but I think your mix blends well, there is something about it that makes it look consistent 👍

@gordoooo_z No, I think ESX-1 is the one I had. I got it off a friend of a friend when he was selling his older equipment, but I didn't keep it for long myself, a couple of years maybe. The knob thing is perfect for tweaking, but I didn't have much fun programming it, maybe just not my cup of tea. On the other hand I did like using MC303, maybe I was just more motivated to use it when I had it — hard to tell 🤷

@gemlog
I'm still using computers that are a decade or more old, one of my laptop is dual core, the other one is quad core and my workstation is dual quad core (8 cores in total), both laptops have 16Gb RAM, WS has 28, and the performance I get is still amazing, I just can't imagine what people do with their new and shiny 24-core (or 14 or whatever) computers with 64 Gb RAM.
Do they do all this SETI@Home thing alone over a weekend or something? 😅

Your post reminds me of this one: gemini://alex.flounder.online/gemlog/2021-01-08-useless.gmi

I wonder if there is a name for this worldview: making stuff fundamentally hard to commercialize to avoid it being controlled by big companies 🤔

Have any ideas which group might make it crash? 😏

@bugaevc Aren't at least AIX, macOS/Darwin and HP/UX (probably Tru64 too) POSIX-certified? That should make them true unices, not UNIX-likes 🤔

@mjdxp Wow, that's a rare one, maybe it's something like a golden ticket 😄

@mjdxp There was a mixup at a t-shirt factory and they mistakenly put a peppermint-flavoured one into a pack of your favourite fruity t-shirts 🤪

@luca I think it was mostly popular among people who came from DOS and have been using Norton Commander on a daily basis, younger people have never used it and don't have that warm and fuzzy feeling about two-panel file managers I guess 🤷

They are the same person 🤯
