Someone reminded me of this version of Steve Reich’s Clapping Music made by editing Angie Dickinson slapping Lee Marvin from the movie Point Break

Indonesia’s Prabowo scraps China trip, TikTok halts live feed amid protests

Protests spreading across the country force president to call off his travel plans, and TikTok to halt live broadcasts.

Reclaimed the lab today 😱🧹🕷️🕸️🕷️🕸️

The cool weather inspired a windows-open vacuum, clean and semi-organize. There was still some stuff setup from #marchintosh, only 6 months later 😅

Storing keyboards in bins freed up a lot of space and stacking the CRTs on top of those towers also saved space and my back! A treat to see the floor again 😁

“Break Out” (1984) by The Pointer Sisters – 12” 33 RPM LP.

This is the definitive edition—the one loaded with the mega-hit “I’m So Excited”. Wild fact: that song was originally meant for Michael Jackson. Hard to picture it now, because it’s impossible to imagine the 80s without the Pointer Sisters owning it.

But this album isn’t just riding one hit. It’s stacked, front to back, with cuts that hit hard. No filler. No duds. Just peak Pointer Sisters.

What often goes unsaid: Break Out is one of the most forward-looking electro-dance records of the decade. The very thing that makes it futuristic—the layers of synths and electronic production—is also what makes it sound warm, rich, and full of life.

This is 80s pop at its sharpest edge, and it hasn’t lost an ounce of heat.

Friendships used to feel like a yes/no question to me. Now they seem more like a scale. Wrote a small piece on this.

Ah, Labor Day. All those people cancelling their insurance (because it's "too expensive") in the Florida Keys you would think would know about the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane.

There was an article in #Wired, investigated and written by #TaylorLorenz (@taylorlorenz) about a kind of disturbing dark web of money funding some content creators who lean into democratic messaging. It has sent some people on the blueosphere apoplectic, and I fail to understand why they are attacking the messenger, rather than the ethics of an organization where the first rule of Chorus is that you’re not allowed to talk about #Chorus.

Look, I will be the first to agree that the Dems have lost the thread, and their connection to the people. Trying to fix that would be good. Trying to fix it by silencing leftists, and running the same dark money nonsense as the bad guys is not good. In fact, I put it to you that it is unethical and bad. And taking your anger about being lied to out on the person who exposed the deception is just self defeating.

More hacking action at the #FreeBSD #Hackathon here in Oslo! Bugs are found, and then more "bugs" are found.

Having Level 3 support in our offices is something we could certainly get used to! ;-D

There's been documentation work, installer work, chasing down pf issues, trying to add architecture number 58 and 59 to #NetBSD (the #486DLC and #NexGen 5x86), discussions about FreeBSD pkgbase, preparing of release notes, and much else.

After a long day, restitution is again offered in the form of #Retrogaming, #beer and food. Today seems to be #MonkeyIsland day.

I haven't blogged in a while. Mostly because my last post was about AI and I wanted to write a followup but found the whole AI discourse so extremely exhausting.

So anyways, back to the world of little hacks with this post about booting #NetBSD from a GPT wedge, the hard way:

As I am working on the newest Knight George demo version, I don't have a lot of flashy new stuff to show...

So just have this extract of the game's first dungeon! Reptiles attack you, and you need to get a hang of the Catacable to jump those pits!
