@scribblesonnapkinsEvan Ah, yeah, that’s a great point! Immediately found this for SWAC, which was from 1950. And there were some earlier computers.

Latest iteration, and this one prints with no supports (but requires some assembly).

I am wishing all OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS a very DO NOT INTENTIONALLY SET YOURSELF ON FIRE https://mastodon.pirateparty.be/@surfhosting/115674236291033568

Hacky and absolute unsupported way to run 32-bit programs under wine-devel on #FreeBSD 15: Use the binaries from FreeBSD 14.

1. Install compat14x-amd64.
2. Use the following pkg32.sh script instead of the one installed by wine-devel.

```
#!/bin/sh -e

if [ "$(id -u)" = 0 ]; then
echo "Don't run this script as root!"
exit 1
fi

I386_ROOT="${WINE_i386_ROOT:-$HOME/.i386-wine-pkg}"
ABI="FreeBSD:14:i386"
OSVERSION="1403000"

if [ ! -d "$I386_ROOT/usr/share/keys/pkg" ]; then
mkdir -p "$I386_ROOT/usr/share/keys"
ln -s /usr/share/keys/pkg "$I386_ROOT/usr/share/keys/pkg"
fi

# Show what we're going to do, then do it.

@tuban_muzuru @billiglarper @mekkaokerekemekka okereke Here's a piece of history many people in the West aren't particularly familiar with, but most people in China know deeply.

The Pearl River Delta flows into the South China Sea.

Around the Pearl River Delta is a cluster of critical Chinese trading ports. Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Dongguan, Shenzhen, and Macau.

Chances are most of the people reading this are doing so on a phone built in the Pearl River Delta region.

A key battle during the First Opium War was a British attack on the Pearl River Delta:

"The Second Battle of Chuenpi[a] (Chinese: 第二次穿鼻之戰) was fought between British and Chinese forces in the Pearl River Delta, Guangdong province, China, on 7 January 1841 during the First Opium War. The British launched an amphibious attack at the Humen strait (Bogue), capturing the forts on the islands of Chuenpi and Taikoktow. Subsequent negotiations between British Plenipotentiary Charles Elliot and Chinese Imperial Commissioner Qishan resulted in the Convention of Chuenpi on 20 January. As one of the terms of the agreement, Elliot announced the cession of Hong Kong Island to the British Empire, after which the British took formal possession of the island on 26 January."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Battle_of_Chuenpi

That battle led to China ceding Hong Kong to the British, beginning the "Century of Humiliation". (That's the century before Mao seized control of China.)

China wants to avoid the Pearl River Delta cities being attacked by a hostile naval power, and the Pearl River being blockaded, and the South Chins Sea being blockaded.

That's by the British again, or the Americans, or any other hostile foreign power.

Thus the critical importance to China in controlling the South China Sea.

Truth be told, were there a mononuclear armed conflict between the US and China, the US would almost certainly at least attempt to blockade the Pearl River Delta or the South China Sea, if it were in a position to do so.

And I don't think you can understand China's determination to control the South China Sea without understanding the Opium Wars.

Portrait of a great nation bespoiled by a hate-fueled, malignant regime: People who did everything right, followed all the rules, did all the work, passed the test, and then, at what should have been a celebration, humiliated, pulled out of line, citizenship yanked at the last minute.

사실상 연구실에서 해야할 일을 지금 혼자서 해내신거...

I'm really happy with the progress FLOSS communities have had over the past 3 decades in the kind of environment they foster. For the longest time they were spaces where "got good"/RTFM/PEBKAC was the abrasive default mode of communication between themselves and specially newcomers and that permeated down to the documentation and the software itself. Some places remain like that, but the Cambrian explosion of projects has led to alternative spaces, to the point where I'd say the places where being consistently a dick to each other is acceptable are now a minority.
As an small anecdote that remains seared in my mind and I find representative, as a tech curious young lad I was scouring every bit of open source documentation I could find to learn. I recall reading GNU documentation that kept talking about the Meta-key. I could never figure out how to AltaVista what the hell that was, and it was of course not mentioned anywhere that it was "old-speak" for Alt. The mailing lists looked intimidating, specially when I saw how people treated each other, so I never asked there. Eventually I muddled with getting RedHat and Slackware that came with some magazine installed but would get stuck on gettting my winmodem to work. I never felt I could actually "be part" of the open source space, until Ubuntu came out, sent me CDs to share in school, with a more "meet people where they are"/"welcoming" attitude.

Guess an #introduction is in order. Not sure I ever did one for my first instance, whoops.

Hi, my name is James an I've moved from an instance that is closing down soon.

I'm absolutely queer but working a boring office job in Germany, trying to remind ppl at work that personal data needs protection and that genAI came fresh out of pandora's box and does not belong in their daily job.

In my free time I #write fic, #draw digital art and #read a lot of books, mostly #scifi. I play a handful of computer games like #GW2. I watch a lot of tv shows and love Star Trek and Doctor Who.

I love #space, #nature, #cats and #photography (although my photos are just taken with my phone). I post them mostly on my Pixelfed account.

Guess that's it for now. I probably forgot a lot of stuff that people write into introductions, but feel free to ask x)

Run out of books. Just read Automatic Noodle by @annaleenAnnalee Newitz 🍜 which was so lovely.

Recommendations please. Sci-fi or other curve-balls welcome.

Perhaps it's because people actually like to physically handle the media they use. They want to have a tangible connection to the music and movies they've bought? Perhaps they're sick of knowing that they only rent the ability to play things when they subscribe to various streaming services.

But mostly, people like to collect things. How do you collect a Netflix library? How do you collect Kindle Unlimited books? How do you express who you are and what you enjoy if it's all housed on a device that feels increasingly hostile?

"You're too close to the problem." vs "You're too removed from the problem."

Both of these cliches seem true to my experience, and yet I struggle to split apart how explain how to avoid falling into either ditch.

What do y'all think? How would you explain it?

you can see this pattern repeat throughout nature, everywhere you look. there is actually a planet out there where the mechs themselves are piloting giantesses

every mech pilot has a tiny hatch in the back of her head where a little robot drone can crawl in and ratatouie her from a control panel
