Ooof I feel this one >.<

Well, honestly Lula winning is at least some saving grace in this neofascist nightmare. God, I’m exhausted. Could we just throw these fashy turds into the sun already?

Today's broadcasting trivia is Station ID's. In the US, licensed OTA TV and Radio stations must at sign-on, sign-off and near the top of the hour, announce their callsign and city of license either visually or audibly per 47 CFR 73.1201. Translators (relays) must also be identified thrice per day.

Damn that election was a debacle and a half. #BCPol

Seriously, like, it's not hard to boycott those fucks, there's so much better food elsewhere. Can say I haven't given CFA a penny my entire life and that won't change.

I'm gonna do occasional random broadcast trivia here, starting with these! The lil logos you might find on TV channels? Yup they have a name. In the UK we call these a DOG, Digital Onscreen Graphic. In the US they have the less likeable name, a bug. I'm more partial to the UK term for obv reasons!

KEXP on DAB. It's more likely than you think!

This has some major Max Zorin vibes

Blaine is super pretty at this time of year. <3

Watching my dog watch the dogs on TV is precious! ❤️

Had a dream last night that our dog learned how to talk and was super intelligent and knew how to use a computer. Was pretty rad tbh

And with a single line of Open Firmware commands you too can fool OS X into your machine is OS 9 compatible. …until the next boot that is :3

This is probably the snazziest license plate I’ve had and it just arrived last week! Hoosk IRL! \o/

Yeah, so about those secretive State Dept meetings with the Alberta separatists…

Was going to send this Airport Card to the person working on the OS 9 driver for troubleshooting but Apple had other ideas Yeah…I’m not pulling that ribbon apart, back to the drawing board. Dx

Hard to articulate how fucked up and cruel this all is. Excellent reporting by CT Mirror, worth the full read.

USPS has gotten very confused over my PowerBook 68k Gray filament order.

Hit 189.3lbs today down from my high of 213lbs after AnthroCon in early July! Makin' very good progress and starting to notice that I look a bit different and better now! |3

Three vaccines received this morning, let's see how my energy levels last hahahah

They work!

I'm not sure who is responsible for the reason why the Mac version of Wireguard is only distributed via the App Store, but I sure would love to give them a good kick up the arse.

Bringing some old UPS’s back into service shortly as our electrical provider seems incapable of maintaining stable grid voltage. Ordered new batteries, looking forward to getting these running again!

Humans have the capability for great evil. So, fight after fight, you keep going. Reject the evil and when necessary, put it in it's place. It will never be over. But it is up to -you- how bad it gets before the arc of history is pushed back towards justice.

I love dahlias, such pretty flowers!

LET'S GOOOO \o/

Yeah, some of the events in the retro computing community using AI flyers is major ick. It just looks generic and awful. Seriously just make something in Bryce, it’ll look so much more cool and authentic.

Will put myself out there on here - I am ofc slinging applications left and right atm. Got a dozen done, but I am a Sr Technical Product Manager/Designer. I have over a decade in this profession. My skills are broad. If you know of an opportunity I'd love to check it out.

I've got two HP Visualize workstations, and they're fun! HP-UX is a trip, go see what Clabretro is up to with his latest acquisition: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAQt...

Notice how they also brag about the number of naturalizations having plummeted; a sign of how much they detest legal immigration. /also, the removals number is largely fake. The actual number is 650-700k.
