My favorite logo on macOS is https://www.alancsmith.co.uk/logo/ First dabbled with logo on my apple ][, attracted by turtle graphics like many others.
Katakana (the above character set representing syllables) is used for words of foreign origin, which this pastry is. In turn it stems from French « langue de chat ».
When we shifted houses and used a Japanese moving company, I was very surprised as movers removed their shoes every time they stepped into our places, both old and new. Oh, they also had gloves on when packing our…
Would a satellite positioned at Earth Moon L2 be stable enough? It would also need a relay to communicate with earth…
I used to eat rabbit often until the 2000’s. Most butcher shops in France had rabbit, presented skinned, gutted and whole. Pretty good meat! A colleague was even including rabbit in the «poultry» category …
Computer to Minitel ttl yes. However the modem part was limited to those paltry figures. I still have mine in the basement. Maybe its capacitors are all busted…time to give it a spin !
The Minitel can be used as a modem too, albeit a cumbersome and very slow one: 1200bps down, 75bps up. Bps as in bits per second. That’s how I connected to bbses and nntp before I finally got a 2400bps real modem. Nice…

When I stopped taking it, I went from 12 reps to 10, and slower recovery. My level at tennis dropped too, but bicycle endurance remained the same. I stopped because of high blood creatinine, and wanted to see what…

Still using the AVP but not exclusively, about 3 hours a day, with a hardware Bluetooth keyboard. Mostly multiple safari windows opening on servers via webterm, cli and emacs. It’s especially great when traveling. Only…
I am spending about three hours a day using my AVP. Not getting headaches or anything like that. I don’t have a suitable MacBook or Mac mini so no virtual display. For development work, I use webterm (webified ghostty)…
I could hold the whole 6502 instruction set (and their cycles) in my mind while programming, it was that simple. I acquired a Z-80 softcard for my Apple ][ (for trying out CPM) and was flabbergasted by the expanded…

It is necessary to have a control group, just as in trials for new drugs.
Takeover of half of Papua New Guinea, now called irian Jaya. Transmigration, that is, moving Java people there and to Borneo (Kalimantan)in order to flood local populations with Malays. But this did not make the news…
In the 75 years of their existence it seems like they suck at expansion. They should take a page from Indonesia’s book for example. Or turkey.
Iga Swiatek (the tennis player) was denied entry in the player area for her own match. Situation was quickly resolved. I doubt VIPs go through the same entrance, lines and checks as regular folks. Yes that older dude…
My dad never learnt how to use our VCR. When VCRs went the way of the dodo, he felt vindicated. Same with the DVD player. Now, at 94, he’s on Netflix, no problem. He has a flip phone.
For example, multicore OCaml is not free of race conditions. The GC, while super efficient (pauses are in the milliseconds), is not suitable for hard realtime. Still, where absolute max performance or realtime are not…
Taiwan people have not been risking their lives trying to escape to join PRC.
