@demize i do not know the people at analogue. i believe from watching their actions that the problem is they actually are supply constrained, not that they're *trying* to be this way. what i *hope* turns out to be the case is that they watch to see which A3D colors sell out *first*, and in future production runs they produce extra of that color or just do a run of "white, black, [2 colors that sold best in december]". but i do not know the people at analogue.

@demize I do think this batch will sell out much quicker than whatever batches they do next year. They fulfilled the preorder batch; the day after the preorders shipped they did a small batch of new orders, which are mostly believed to be the stock from cancelled preorders; and so since they guarantee delivery Dec 24, whatever they put up on Dec 10 logically must be *only as much as they could make between preorder fulfilment and Dec 10*. The website uses the phrase "Highly limited quantites."

used to be kinda dismissive about the whole " has really good compiler error messages" thing, because i've personally seen GCC improve a lot since i started coding, but, like

rust has really good compiler error messages

I have had an Analogue 3D for two weekends now and I really, really like it. Analogue just announced another order pass in ten(!) colors for Dec 10.

I think Dec 10 will be a bloodbath. I think a BUNCH of people are gonna wind up real frustrated on Dec 10 when they don't get their preferred colors. This is so many colors and when they did this with the Pocket some colors sold out well before the others. If you decide you want one be online the second these go up.

Fantastic Limited Editions

Available Dec 10, 8am PST. Guaranteed Christmas delivery.

When the Compute Module 5 came out, you couldn't use the IO Case's bundled fan and heatsink at the same time - which was spun as letting people try out passive and active cooling separately.

Well, that definitely-not-a-design-flaw-honest has been fixed: the latest IO Case shifts the fan to allow clearance underneath for the heatsink.

OK, so there is a "trend" advocated in German media called "Hobby Dogging", which apparently means taking imaginary pets for walks - so, strolls for mental folk… Surely, any of the journalists writing these articles should have spent a minute looking up what dogging means in the UK…

Guess I buried the lede on this Oct 10 story, which broke the news about a record 29+ Tbps DDoS from the Aisuru IoT botnet.

krebsonsecurity.com/2025/10/dd

Because tons of sites are writing about this latest quarterly report from Cloudflare is if this is somehow news.

blog.cloudflare.com/ddos-threa

To my mind, the real news is that we're way past 30 Tbps capability with this botnet, and we're safely moving into a territory (terrortory?) where only Cloudflare can handle these attacks. This is problematic on a multitude of levels, and it's probably worth restating that much of the DDoS for hire industry still hides behind CF. And apparently 68 percent of phishing sites, if these stats are credible.

I think I'm going to do this three ways:

1 - I'm going to publish more zines.

2 - I'm going to set up a mailing address where people can mail zines and I'll put them out for sale.

3 - I'm going to set up an email address where people can mail PDFs and I'll print them and sell them as zines.

(for 2 and 3, I'll offer to sell on commission if the author wants me to mail back a check/send a paypal payment when they sell.)
