i think i'll build an 8 bit micro and then write my own LOGO interpreter

someone built a Z80 micro on hackaday with chips work single dollars

might use a pi as a terminal until i can wrangle some cheap VGA chips

as a reminder, be aware that websites now install javascript you have no awareness of into your browser and run it in the background, also without your awareness.

in firefox, if you go to about:debugging and click "workers" you can see all the javascripts running in the background on your firefox for the benefit of others

I'm starting to enjoy programmers streaming their coding sessions on Twich / YouTube.

There's a lot you can learn from watching someone working on a piece of source code, voicing their entire thought process.

My personal favorites so far are "Fun Fun Function" and "JustForFunc". If you already discovered interesting channels, please share them with me!

i have a very low bar for what constitutes being a good commie:

- get off the internet
- do literally anything in real life
- organise, organise, organise

i also have a very low bar for organising

doing literally anything socialist related in real life wins you gold stars

looking at you, /leftypol/, /r/socialism, communism etc etc

You remember that 200-word RPG I wrote for a competition last month, 'These are animals', about being a kid taken away from their mother by officialdom?

Hundreds of shares on social media.

No comments from the judges.

Didn't make the final 50.

"Jorg Johannsen has fully assembled they Raspberry Pi, booting the live environment. He's prepping to run his package manager, looks like he's using Arch.

Oh, he fumbles! He's having trouble writing anything to disk. What do you think, Sam?"

"Well, Sam, Jorg's been in the game for a long time. He's been dabbling in a secondary recovery OS and can access it from GRUB at any time."
