Feeling stressed by some bad news & these Prelues by Gayane Chebotarian are really hitting the spot. I was learning some of them a few years ago but never got to all of them. Really beautiful stuff by an underappreciated Soviet composer.

This isn't strictly necessary (#ikiwiki, which I currently use as static site builder, has the concept of “underlay” that can be used to fetch site contents from outside the repository), and would allow me to keep the *repository* lightweight (more so than the website at least). Tracking the images in the repository has the advantage of keeping everything together, and encourages for images the same “content to bytes” maximization that has driven my text usage.

I posted a new T-shirt design based off an image of an old "St. Louis" button that's honoring the 260th birthday of our gritty, underappreciated town. New for 2024! Tell your friends! Markup is only 10% on this baby so they're cheap too! Just like you!

Being from the South, I know these places and these people. This book takes you deep under the skin to Underland. Parts of it feel so real that I wanted to reach for the internet to see if this was history I'd just forgotten. I'm a sucker for books that make me cry and this one did, more than once. Once from sadness, once from rage, and once from hope. I loved everything about it. Please give STARLING HOUSE by Alix E. Harrow a read. https://bookshop.org/a/3560/9798885794282 #starlinghouse

#kDrama
The Secret Life of My Secretary
(2019 - Viki, 32 0:35 eps)Perfect for a relaxing, silly romcom! The leads have super-cute chemistry. A typical chaebol & overworked, underappreciated secretary trope with the tiny twist of the boss having a disability that makes him very reliant on his secretary. The 2nd leads are great - especially Veronica Park - she's so over-the-top it's amusing. All 4 leads get some good character development.
Turn your brain off to believe some of the plot, and it's all good fun. This would be a good one to play kDrama bingo with - so many tropes. Although, the mystery of what's happening in the company is unexpected. There's just enough angst - worrying about who's behind the trouble & whether the secretary's secret will be discovered - to keep it interesting.

I'm not a #librarian, but I'm keenly aware that librarians belong to one of those underappreciated professions that keep the world running.
At their best, librarians #democratize #access to #data, #information, #knowledge, and #wisdom.

#CreationRebel, one of the pioneers in UK #dubwise (basically the in session band for the impeccably good and largely underappreciated #PrinceFarI: https://peel.fandom.com/wiki/Creation_Rebel), is delivering their first album in nearly 4 decades soon, "Hostile Environment". I've pre-ordered the vinyl, because I'm a fundamentally smart person.
Jus' sayin.

Hey, rice plants in another anime this season.
Yatagarasu: The Raven Does Not Choose Its Master is a great underappreciated mystery/action show, and it's finally back after a short break.

Ni som hänger i grupper på Facebook, vad skulle få er att flytta från/med en (eller flera) Facebook-grupp(er) till ett (eller flera) motsvarande Internetforum?
Vad är det som gör att man väljer en tekniskt underlägsen och exkluderande tjänst, framför ett Internetforum?
Jag är genuint nyfiken. :)

After considerable hemming and hawing, I’ve decided to center the toile’s tableaus on the thighs of the front and back pieces of Ernesto’s fatigues. The slant pockets are cut to match (you can just see where they underlay the front pieces in the photo). The cargo pockets will be cut on-the-fly to match across the outseam.
Related: I always feel like a monster when I cut pieces from big print fabrics. So much extra fabric is leftover. #sewing #ElfkinLaunch #MenWhoSew #lgbtartist

I am considering shifting over from #Rogers #HFC to #Bell #XGSPON
The #PPPoE #ONT noise has given me pause.
I get that #DSL adopted PPPoE because circuit switching underlay (*cough* ATM). It sort of made sense then. Barely.
But what is the justification for continuing PPPoE on *PON networks?
It seems like extra equipment scaling cost & complexity to me.

Finally got to try out @lisyarus's #GMTK2024 submission #ColorFractory.
https://lisyarus.itch.io/color-fractory
Unfairly underappreciated puzzle game if you ask me (yes, I should have gotten around ot it when the #gamejam was still open), even if there are a few nicks in the UX, unavoidable for a gamejam submission (my pet peeves: cannot drag conveyor belts across multiple squares at once, and lack of a colorblind-friendly mode).

Art Ink in October No.25
A quick sketch of my right foot.
My foot isn't pretty but it does a lot for me and is in general underappreciated. The Narwhal pen is much prettier. I'm not sure what the ink is. -

> file versioning
optionally :)
I'd add networked file system, though it hides in "virtual devices". And integrated debugger (DDT).
But the big, underappreciared thing about the ITS operating system (OS), too easily seen as a weakness, was the LACK of security.
Today, security is essential. But the luxury of working WITHOUT it back then was a HUGE productivity gain.
ITS existed on the ARPANET for YEARS with NO file security, NO protection against ANY user (even not logged in users) shutting down timesharing, tools that let ANY user spy on any other, and commands to read interactive messages or email that took a command line argument of WHOSE to read. Yet abuse was negligible/tolerable for a LONG time.
Partly an artifact of the time. Some combination of (1) most folks not thinking to make mischief, (2) most users knowing how precious it was and being asked to behave like adults and respect it, (3) using those same tools to see what others were doing and mutually policing, (4) using spy tools to make sure people weren't floundering and frustrated but helped to succeed, (5) treating even guests (tourists) with respect, (6) "security through obscurity" still worked back then.
I didn't understand how critical this was until I started using a Digital Equpment Corporation (DEC) commercial TOPS-20 OS on basically the same (PDP-10) hardware. I felt suddenly WAY less productive and was at a loss for why. I went back to an ITS host and enumerated all the programs in the system directories (SYS, SYS1, SYS2, SYS3) to see what was missing.
One realization was that most of that software just supported other ITS software. It wasn't what was missing.
The other realization, something I then had no name for but with benefit of history I now do, was that ITS was an early form of social media--a better, less nutty way to perceive its spying capabilities--like a DDT (shell) command ("os", for Output Spy) to say WHOSE console to spy on.
Like in Star Trek TNG episode "I, Borg", TOPS-20 made me feel like Hugh did: I couldn't "hear the voices" of other users. (Metaphorically hear. We mostly had no audio back then.) The difference from ITS? I was lonely. I could send messages, but only private ones. Socializing information, knowing what others were doing, sharing work? All hard. The silence was deafening.
Why WOULD anyone be allowed to see somebody else's screen? Why would that EVER not be creepy? Why would someone WANT you to read their messages to/from others?
Isn't that what we do on Facebook? Somebody starts a conversation and others arrive to see it, see what's been said so far, and add to it. That's how ITS felt. You'd login, notice friends were online, read their recent messages to find out what was going on, and then (once caught up in conversations), join in. Details were different, but in the social media paradigm it's easier to see why it felt not so much creepy as fabulously useful, especially compared to the isolation of other OSes of the time (and now). It made us enormously more efficient.
And the ability to watch somebody else's screen? We do it in zoom today, though we now elect when we do it and when we can't. Still, powerful. People imagine it was more primitive back then, and it was. But different too. No camera, just screen, but no ability to opt out of sharing it. Not really the screen, the output buffer (kinda like a low-level, ephemeral event queue). Often it looked crappy on a slow terminal trying to watch a fast one because of data loss trying to keep up, or trying to watch a screen with sophisticated display capability from a screen (or even "paper terminal") lacking such capability. Even so, it worked pretty well.
It was ALSO an early interactive, collaborative development environment. Programmers worked with each other AND users (who they could watch). We didn't lack ideas. A lot of today's "new inventions" may be things we knew we wanted. We were limited by what tools were implemented, so progress started slow. Processors were slower. But people were clever, and much more careful with time/space efficiency than today.
I recall Emacs starting in about 3 seconds on ITS, on a PDP-10 with 10-15 users, slower if 30. Today, on MUCH faster personal hardware, it starts fast but still not instantly. More happens now under the covers. More flexibility AND sloppiness are allowed.
Back then if something didn't work, you sent a bug report. Someone might say "show me". So you'd do it on your console and assume they could watch. Like zoom (sans video).
Most stuff lacked documentation but people just typed queries to command line (like copilot?). It'd say syntax error but often someone spying would volunteer an answer, maybe before the user asked. :)
We built many sketches of our imagined futures. ITS was all about that in a way other OSes of the time were not.
