I love the inconsistency between "I don't have time to learn DCS" and "so I'll spend two years reverse engineering an old DOS game instead" :) Good articles, I agree that there isn't enough technical articles about…
For Sweden in addition to what's stated above, if the reason for being fired is downsizing of lack of work, the law for employment protection (LAS) also states that the people laid off have to be in the reverse order of…
It looks like a 1990s webpage with modern visual design made for children. I kept waiting for the <blink> marquee and the "under construction" gif to show up as I was scrolling through. Utterly useless.
Recapping is mostly nonsense, there are however some devices out there with electrolytic caps that are known to leak. Some old Amiga and Macs have these issues for example. From there it seems to have spread out into a…
https://unece.org/trade/cefact/unlocode-code-list-country-an... UN/LOCODE tends to have an abbreviation for most places.
Absolutely fantastic place that I also recommend to anybody interested. So nice that the machines are out, powered on and ready to be tinkered with. Sit down and relive the old days by hammering out some 6502 assembly…
Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension. I couldn't live without it.
> Practically, though, it's a shit show. I usually put it as "Deep inside windows is a really beautiful OS just screaming to be let out from under all that junk on top." The NT kernel isn't that bad, different from unix…
It can be done for sure I've seen some designs for it. The 128DCR generates +5, +12 and 9V AC so pretty straight forward. Small meanwell unit and a transformer should do the trick.…
Commodore 128. To the point that I've made a replacement PCB for it and have started reverse engineering the system specific ICs. It was my first computer and I really like how much of a frankensteins monster it is…
I can't say for the other Nordic countries, but this statement is utterly wrong as far as Sweden is concerned. The Swedish monarch has no power at all in the Swedish Grundlag (constitution). He is the titular head of…
Not always the case. At the European company I work there are many rules and regs on who can legally access employees email, depending on the country of the employee. Luxembourg and the Netherlands can be really tricky…
There's articles all over the Internet on how to remove/disable the speaker on airtags. Doesn't look to hard to do either, no hardware sensing if this is the case so it just keeps on working.
The AmigaOS ABI was really designed for the m68k, it leverages registers as much as possible. Pass variables in data registers, pointers in address registers. A4 for local data, A6 for the library pointer, results in…
From this day on, letters are banned. All posted material must be on post cards so that any and all can inspect them in case you are being naughty. Funny how we've gone from court order to intercept somebodies mail to…
I consider both licenses to be about freedom however they differ in the freedom involved. MIT style licenses are about freedom for the programmer to do as they want, not code freedom. GPL is all about the freedom of the…
It would be interesting to know how they would classify modern "rented" software like the Adobe CS Suite or Office 365. They are installed on your machine but works like SaaS. It's kind of a gray area for me at least,…
Even as a Commodore person who's never really owned a Sinclair computer, it can't be underestimated what an impact Sir Clive had on early home computing. He truly showed that affordable computing is possible and in my…
On the topic of Spartan societey in general, a really good read is https://acoup.blog/category/collections/this-isnt-sparta/ by Dr. Bret Deveraux. Long read but well worth it for interested people.
From a non US outsiders perspective I do have to say that it looks like the US civil war never really ended. The country is still largely divided along the same lines (with maybe California as a third entity) and I…
You'd be surprised how flexible some of the GUI toolkits on the Amiga actually were. MUI is based on the concept that layout is dynamic and flexible. It would dynamically calculate a minimum window size based on the…
Yup. They also were not developed by the same company. 3.5 and 3.9 were developed by Haage & Partner, 3.1.4 and 3.2 were developed by Hyperion Entertainment. There's even an AmigaOS 4.0 from Hyperion which is PowerPC…
What is commonly called IPsec is actually two separate protocols, IPSec itself and ISAKMP/IKE for key management. IPSec is somewhat similar to how wireguard work actually, it relies on IPs and static encryption keys.…
I do agree with PHK on his feelings about autotools. It is a cargo cult dumpsterfire, unfortunately it mostly works and nobody wants to go in and fix it. Also suffers from changes breaking stuff for somebody somewhere…
Really cool, but just to nitpick a bit not entirely correct in some ways. Logical systems still sell their NuVAX machines, see https://logical-co.com/product/nuvax-4400-system/ They also do PDP/11 systems and hardware.…
