@museumjoe.bsky.social Do you have any stock of the Portable VGA adaptor?

Somewhat happy I made it to CERN and saw @timbl.bsky.social’s old NeXT box.

I'd missed that @jamesholden.bsky.social had created his own Max environment and open-sourced it (playbenny.github.io/benny_manual/) - the talk here is really inspiring.

Back in one piece. Addictive v5 firmware installed, crackly pots cleaned, new LCD fitted, and brought up to date with the service manual ECOs.

I recently saw an amazing Navajo rug at the National Gallery of Art. It looks abstract at first, but it is a detailed representation of the Intel Pentium processor. Called "Replica of a Chip", it was created in 1994 by Marilou Schultz, a Navajo/Diné weaver and math teacher. 1/n

@iandoylesport.bsky.social As a Liverpool fan, I’m glad you’re here - will you post the match updates too?

An item from a specific moment: When IN RAINBOWS first appeared as a pay-what-you-want download in 2007, Radiohead did not include a cover. In the brief window that followed, fans created their own cover art. I do not know who made this, but to my mind, it is the proper album cover, now and always.

Ok, this is incredible. For anyone familiar with BART in the Bay Area, someone (sneakily) stuck a GoPro to the front of one, filmed an entire journey end-to-end, and then made a documentary out of it (overlaying fascinating audio). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-Jrp6it9Ss
