so this app has been long for a good decade -

the Asus Surf 4G (and many other netbooks) use interesting resolutions like 800x480, and do not offer normal 4:3 resolutions like 640x480 via their winXP display driver

that means games like Thief or Doom 3 or Half-Life won't fit on the screen in windowed or full screen modes

this is where Netbook Resolution Customizer comes in. it lets you set custom resolutions so older win9x games can use the resolutions they expect

dredged this application out of a bunch of old EeePC forums that went defunct 10 years ago, and uploaded to IA:

“when neurodivergent people mask their natural tendencies to fit in with neurotypical people or get through a situation, it requires more effort than it would for someone without autism or ADHD”

I really like theses results:

"Recent findings show adult New Zealanders who do not speak te reo Māori (the Māori language, the indigenous language of New Zealand) nonetheless have impressive implicit lexical and phonotactic knowledge of the language. (…)

Our results show that ambient exposure leads to implicit knowledge both in childhood and adulthood, and that continuing exposure throughout the lifespan leads to increased knowledge."

@tursilion 😂😂😂 sorry I've posted several Protracker tunes now and if I include the chiptune hashtag I inevitably get a "YOU IDIOT!" from people who are no doubt very cool & have lots of friends 😂 Thanks for taking the time to listen to my nonsense! Sorry I haven't been on here much. Life has been hard and this whole tune was done on my lunch break, as usual. What I wouldn't give for more free time.
Commander Supreme mastodon (AP)
@tursilion yeah, I mean, it's still computer generated music, right? The splitting of hairs seems a little weird to me, but whatever. Thanks for the well wishes! At least I still have my toys for when I actually do have downtime. Speaking of which I recently got a 386 with a Soundblaster card. It has an Arduino CH375 for mass storage so I made a bootable USB flash drive and threw Reality Adlib Tracker on there. Bit by bit I will have a chiptune on almost every system and soundcard!

It's getting hot these days. Mind if I shed some fur to cool off? 😏

The Cybertruck detected my child running in front of it while it was stopped so it turned itself on and ran over him
My fault tho, I shouldn't have let my child run around
Love the truck!

When I was a child, I had childish things. But as I grew up, I was able to afford a lot more childish things. And now I have way, way more childish things. I cannot stress how much these childish things rule.

#mountains fascinate me, especially the #alps. I just get all relaxed and happy when I'm walking around. The ruggedness and the feeling of being the first person walking there is what gets to me. Also the history of the places. These mountains have been there for so long, and there has happend so much. Just imagining what it must have been for the pre-historic people to walk, hunt and live there is awesome.

Oh, right. I'm seeing olympics stuff so it must be a leap-year again. As they have a 4-year cadence instead of being every year, I always manage to completely forget about sports after each of these… just in time for another one to come round, it seems. I find it hard to understand how people are still interested in this stuff after this many times.

(scene: the USB implementers forum. the room is dark and full of smoke. the industry representitives are lit from below, their faces hidden)

"OK folks! Now it's time to write the spec for USB C extension cables and USB C to A adapters. Thoughts?"

"What if we just don't standardise those? We just say in the spec that they're disallowed."

"But extension cables are pretty essential, sometimes there's no alternative. People are going to make them whether they're allowed by the spec or not. So won't every company that makes one do it a bit differently, and they'll all be broken in slightly different ways?"

"Yes, exactly."

"Great, done. What's next?"

also use an rfc3339 date format or at least make it non-ambiguous. As in 09 Feb 2024, not “02/09/2024” (which is actually the 2nd of September)
GrumpSec Spottycat mastodon (AP)
ALSO Absolutely No “season-year”. Summer 2023? That could have been Jan/Feb, June,July,August or December 2023.
@kyhwana iso 8601! aka YYYY-MM-DD, or 2024-02-09

@chfour RFC3339, ISO8601 is paywalled. And remember if you’re paying for it, its not a date.. (its something else)

Welcomed in a new member of the family yesterday: an Amiga 1000 I spotted on FB marketplace. This is an early one made in 1985! It’s awesome finally having the OG Amiga and the CRT monitor is in amazing working condition.

Is there anything better than spending this hot summer day in the forest next to a cool little stream? Well if you're lucky you might see a rare waterdragon in his natural habitat.

Referring to distances and weights in kibimeters and kibigrams just to confuse everyone

POSTSCRIPT: After typing this, I suddenly wondered if anyone had ever had this thought before. I searched on Google for "kibigram" to see if I could find an example of someone using the word. I did. It was @foone

If anyone is curious just how long the lessons of #CrowdStrike will last, US Navy research suggests everyone will be cautious for about 6 months before going back to the way things were before.

@SimonTesla It's why I took a week ish to write (on and off) something to copy data from a test instance to a prod one -- I also had it emit what changed so you can actually figure out if anything important changed or if something was wrong from test to change before allowing a copy.
