Before this, it was in a wooden crate, which I thought was appropriate as it’s homemade and reaches back to the typical cases the Apple 1 ended up in.

Yes, that’s an arcade player 1 start button on the side as a power button 😁

Unfortunately, @tut doesn't give a graph for polls, so I made one manually.

(Psst, @sibotherium, we should totally implement that! ;) )

Crazy bash one-liner to convert from percentage to number of black and gray blocks:

while read -p " > " x; do echo "($x/100)*80+0.5" |bc -l |cut -f1 -d.; echo "((100-$x)/100)*80+0.5" |bc -l |cut -f1 -d.; done

Still true today

The ultimate Pi 5 arrives carrying 16GB ... and a price to match - How much RAM does an enthusiast really need? The Raspberry Pi has come a long way from it... - https://go.theregister.com/feed/www.theregister.com/2025/01/09/the_ultimate_pi_5_arrives/

I seem to have stumbled across a group of folks who scan for and then grief unprotected #Minecraft servers. The log entries' usernames are a Discord address which takes you to "Block Game Renovation Club". One of their channel rules says, "No griefing", but then they post videos of exactly that to the "announcements" section. I asked who they were and they tried to get me into voice chat, I guess since text messages can be read by third parties, like Discord moderators. 1/

Got the 2G CF card to boot! I used qemu with an image of the 40MB drive and a blank 2GB disk image with the exact same number of bytes as the actual CF card. From the 40MB drive I was able to fdisk and sys it, but couldn't set the partition active. I mounted the 2GB image using qemu-nbd and let Linux fdisk make the partition active. Booted the 2GB image in qemu and so I used ddrescue (I like the progress info) to put on CF and it booted in T5200! #RetroComputing #VintageComputing
