Switched out GPS antennas on the #meshtastic from the stock nonsense Lilygo shipped and suddenly 10 satellites and a solid position lock appear.

My instance watches out for mentions of teletext or chunkytext: zxnet.co.uk/teletext/vie... 🙂
It's a python script and I did put it on github, but I really ought to get to the bottom of why it works for days at a time and then randomly breaks...

I recently posted about my Bamboozle Generator, and how nothing new had been added to it in years.

That changed today...there are now wizards (and there will be more!)

You asked for it many times, it's finally here.

You can now switch TV channels between BBC1 and Channel 4, the latter of which will now let you play Bamboozle!

Checked in on the latest tape going through the teletext recovery setup, and discovered I was capturing teletext from the VBI while teletext was also in-vision on Pages From Ceefax. Very meta.

(Yes, I'll rewind when it's done and capture that, too, before you ask.)

i finally got the second spellbook, and then was killed by... water. two shotted. i didn't even know water could do that? i guess they set it up so it sometimes rolls very high?

that's miserable. if you're going to have water be that dangerous, have a message like brogue if you accidentally go in.

In my #dwarffortress, Mosus Urdimothil is in a strange mood and wants something we haven't got. Which is a bit of a problem when we're being besieged by zombies. Can I find her what she wants before she goes mad?

it's a computer player for Angband. www.twitch.tv/videos/16523...

it doesn't cheat; it only has access to information the player would have.

it has infinite patience and will play in a VERY slow playstyle, repeatedly visiting shops and the same floors over and over, until it wants to proceed.

thedagit went live on Twitch. Catch up on their Angband VOD now.

Looking for a computer job. I have programming experience in BASIC, Turbo Pascal, LOGO (of course) and some C++. VERY familiar with the Windows 95 operating system, global communications networks like Fidonet, and troubleshooting 2400bps modems. E-mail me at the BBS with offers.

You ever watch the 8 bit Guy on YouTube?

The BBS documentary that was out. I was crazy actually seeing things from back in the day.

Friend of mine a few block up dealt weed. I'd call up, page sysop and we'd talk about it like that in the chat. Phreaking and hacking a little bit.
