@GustavinoBevilacqua sounds like an excellent candidate for a “help wanted”-style first pull request!

@mhoye $dayjob-1 scheduled incident retrospectives over lunch (not catered). If it was intentional it’d a bit Evil Genius, but I suspect it wasn’t.

@sldrant @neil @dragon @Linux_in_a_Bit the cursor at 30Hz is also a wart for me, but I wonder if I could get used to it. For my work it wouldn’t matter for anything else either

Do the pimaroni e-ink displays support writing to them without doing a full refresh? I can’t see that this is possible from their MicroPython layer on top but perhaps that’s not a hardware limitation

@MaryPot I don’t see how the all caps bit in any way contradicts what I wrote, but if you’re happy to unpack I’m happy to read

@freddy @mhoye I find it hard even on 10” eink devices. It’s telling that sometimes you must submit single column, double spaced, large font size for reviewers

Fascinating review of John Robb's new book "The Art of Darkness: The History of Goth" https://mickmercer.substack.com/p/john-robb-the-art-of-darkness-the . A pull-quote (from the review): "I’m looking forward to seeing a Goth book one day by a twenty-something that ignores the 80’s completely, telling us what inspired them to get involved during the noughties or tens, and why the current music means everything, as it should"

@foosel @idan I might have needed this today too. Thanks

This episode of Unclassified (world of drone) on bbc radio 3 is excellent https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001k1gg?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile

A habit I got into as a sysadmin: of living a slightly nomadic life in terms of computing environment: I think has had some long-term negative effects on my general productivity

@lproven @neil hah! Coordinating it across reg articles would be some work

@lproven @neil I didn’t get the office 365-$I joke, ‘tis all

I want a 12” variant of this with Linux on it, yesterday. https://social.vivaldi.net/@lproven/110060790439788478

@neil @lproven I eventually did and sheepishly deleted my toot ;)

@nixternal you need a better reason than “YouTube told me to” :)
I’m using neovim but I hardly use the new stuff. Killer feature for me is/was subprocess stuff

I need to write a blog post about climate change. Perhaps tomorrow. Long overdue
