It really happened. The :commodore: brand is now in the hands of real geeks 🥰

should we open source our homebrew web based markdown file tree editor (with image support and soon, ics calendar editor)? or would it be a distraction and people are happy with the other solutions out there?

I'm pretty happy with how this cleaned up. Could do with a final going over (especially the keys when my key puller turns up with my other stuff) but a big improvement on how it arrived 😍

Just backed a fun looking game from a well-known YouTuber (and genuinely nice guy) which may also help with Japanese study - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1127244227/go-go-gesture.

Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s one of the few minority groups you can always join.

Even if you do everything “right”. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you “try hard”

It’s not a moral failing. It’s a part of life.

If more people would accept that and work with us, we would all be better off.

another thing that i'm quite excited about is that we've now rolled out the first official system controller firmware update for MNT Pocket Reform on LVFS/fwupd. this has been prepped for quite a long time now with major contributions by @ch2500 and lots of help by @hughsie, thanks a lot!

this means that people can now update this part of the firmware comfortably through `fwupdmgr` or Gnome Firmware (`gnome-firmware`). the keyboard firmware and fw for other devices will follow.

Another of my favorite games turns 35 this month! 🎂 🎊

Remember, if you’re going to give social media your precious time, it should be fun, or at least constructive/edifying. Don’t waste your energy on the BS.

@Amiga_News Wow! Thanks! I hadn't heard about this. They got Jogeir Liljedahl to do the music, too. Very cool. https://evercade.co.uk/evercade-game-spotlight-roguecraft-dx/ #evercade #amiga

"So let’s get one thing out of the way: I think “AI literacy” is a dangerous device of neoliberal education and it deserves to be dismissed out of hand."

"Using AI is not about communicating. It’s about avoiding communicating. It’s about not reading, not writing, not drawing, not seeing. It’s about ceding our powers of expression and comprehension to digital apps that will cushion us from fully participating in our own lives."

First, I had to buy my first Acorn Electron.

I did it to see flicker-free Elite running on real hardware. It looks good!

But I hadn't realised that I would fall in love with the Electron's physical form. It is such a lovely, tactile object; beautifully made, perfectly sized, elegantly 1980s. (2/6)

“Huge public groundswells of mistrust and anger about excessive corporate power" across political lines are prompting global antitrust probes into big tech – perhaps forcing a reckoning after years of enshittification, EFF’s @pluralistic told @arstechnica.
