I've found some of my family's travel footage from 2010 in an old video camera, and I must admit, it feels a lot more complete and emotional than what we capture on our smartphones these days. It's interesting how we used to ca… fosstodon.org/@nathanpc/1096…

If everything works out I'll get my first #3Dprinter today. It'll probably only be assembled next week since my calendar is completely filled this week.

I must admit that IntelliCode is the best thing that has happened to programming since IntelliSense. I really mean it, no joke. I've just upgraded to Visual Studio 2022, I've been working on an old codebase and these new sugges… fosstodon.org/@nathanpc/1096…

RT @[email protected] A low-effort video, in which I look at another set of 2-wire LEDs! 👀 RealTimeKodi on Twitter gave me the tipoff on these - not addressable, but certainly controlled as a whole set, via two wires. https://www… chaos.social/@attie/1096454…

TIL that #Mir pivoted from being a display server to replace X to a #Wayland compositor. I can see a very niche market for it as a way to ease development of kiosk-like applications that just run on top of a bare Wayland session… fosstodon.org/@nathanpc/1096…

What an amazing light and sound instalation at the #atomium in Brussels. They only have blue and red LEDs and only drive them at 0, 50%, or 100% intensity. I guess with this architecture they can drive 2 "pixels" from a single … fosstodon.org/@nathanpc/1095…

Anyone that has more experience with the #fediverse. I have a video that I shot on my phone that's 30 seconds long, but it's in 4K, so it's bigger than the 40MB limit for video uploads and apparently Mastodon's official app for … fosstodon.org/@nathanpc/1095…

I've just stumbled upon the best search engine of all time! I can easily pick any keywords and get old school websites for all of the results. This is amazing! It's perfect for researching old technology topics. wiby.me

Took my Surface Pro out of the bag to do some work and noticed the screen cracked from border to border overnight. I left it in the car during the night, maybe a thermal shock situation on a weak spot caused it?

I know a lot of people might disagree, but I still think that Windows Server with Hyper-V and the Desktop Experience is still the best virtualization host platform for #homelab and small businesses.
