@ross @slp me too! Someone disassembled the Atari version and made a Linux build that used GL: https://github.com/pcercuei/glfrontier . I haven’t played even *that* for over ten years but from what I recall it’s a blast

I had a brain idea so I made a picture of it.

A very wide image labeled:

Top text: There's more pride than the eye can see

In the center is a version of the 8-stripe pride flag, rotated so that the stripes are vertical, which fades out at the left and right.

Bottom text: Left: "Ultra Pride"  Center: "Visible Pride"  Right: "Infra Pride"

It's similar to the kind of diagram that demonstrates that the visible light spectrum is only a subset of all wavelengths of light (photons)

@fraggle I hadn’t, thank you!

Catnip!

One of the hidden tracks is 78RPM so I’d need to record it and speed it up to hear it properly

I bought this at the time and I’ve never played it. I was planning to flip it but I might enjoy it this week first

Reminding myself on the truly wacky list of hidden features on Jack White’s “Lazaretto” LP https://www.discogs.com/release/5764967-Jack-White-Lazaretto

@fred are you self-hosting a Mastodon or Mastodon-like?

Vini is posting a lot on FB and does not seem to be in a good place :(

New Cate Le Bon track recalls Vini Reilly/Durutti Column https://catelebon.bandcamp.com/track/about-time

Quite enjoyed this Tanpura generator/mixer as work-musik this morning https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/tanpuraDroneGenerator.php

Surprised this track (the closer on the new TRON movie soundtrack) has got another breakfast-time play on R6. https://dizl.de/@JBsWhatsOn6/115382871442174466

Good morning. A disturbed night with my eldest daughter, so not on top form brain-wise, but going to try and tick off another PhD correction nontheless (42/55 down).

An actual sentence in The Times: “Bella Hadid posted an ode to the press who have died in Gaza (even though several members of the Gazan press have been shown to be Hamas operatives or sympathisers).”

There’s some right shite written in The Times these days.

@zhenech partial solution: I've defined the network with a wrong/temporary IP range, and then edited the JSON file afterwards.

@zhenech alas the second cmd there also throws the "already used on host or by another config" error. I'm wondering if the old CNI config lying around could be the problem…

@zhenech the beige already exists, yes: i didn’t try that exact invocation (i think a superset). Going to fiddle a bit more this morning :)
