  1. Having a complete hoot getting an old but surprisingly functional #OKI #MicroLine3320 #DotMatrix #Printer working with my #Atari800. It prints single lines beautifully, but it doesn't line feed on reaching the #ATASCII line ending 0x9B.

    Looks like I need to configure the printer to understand the non-standard Atari linefeed. Let's see if that's possible!

  2. Newest piece of gear: A 1960's East German #refractometer. The wrench for the calibration screw is missing (1.3 mm square key) and the union nut for the thermometer is a bit loose (M16 x 0.75 ?).

    Unfortunately Google turns up nothing in regards to spare parts, or even parts that could be simply converted without special tools I don't have.

    Using a pair of tweezers for calibration and lots of teflon tape on the thread works, though :)

  3. Claudia Plattner, President of German BSI, has just been featured in an article on email security in eco's dotmagazine. It's a wake up call and invitation to enhance email security in a joined effort :blobs:

    I like it :ablobsmile:

  4. I very much recommend this article on #EmailSecurity written by my colleague Kristina for eco's dotmagazine :blobcatreading: It'll give you a brief overview on both of our Technical Guidelines (BSI TR-03108 and BSI TR-03182) and what we released them for 😀👍

  6. @gmc For my #amstradcpc I had the #epson lx-86 #dotmatrix printer with 9 needles.
    Had much fun with trying out many of the ESC-p codes
    ```
    print chr$(27) + "W"
    ```
    to turn double width printing on or off.

  7. I had a pretty good sunday all things considered. I went for a brisk lunch at Take a Break and then sunday shopping with @dotmargui . Then we played #Diablo 3 on Switch together (Couch Co-Op❤️), then I made a damn good #TexMex mince pie with zucchini, black eyed peas and bellpepper... and we split a little bag of sour gummies for our weekend watch of #DareDevil : Born Again.
  8. RT @[email protected]: Browsing through the WinForms code... TBH at first glance, it doesn't look like too many places you would have to intercept Windows calls to redirect to #SkiaSharp and make it run cross-platform: github.com/dotnet/winforms/blo @[email protected] #MSFTConnect

  13. A fairly slow morning. Worked on my #Laravel project.. and then I got the OG #Starcraft running on #Fedora 43 in #Sway with #Rofi and all that good stuff.

    I think I'll go out on the balcony and read some after lunch.

    😌 aaah...
  14. So... I ended up spending the hours around midnight all the way until 09:00 in the ER for my allergy.

    I got #antihistamines IV which... is a first.

    It sucked, but the people in the hospital were nice and now I feel very good and my symptoms aren't even 20% of what I experienced the day before. Got a five day prescription to run through here in the next coming days... What an adventure. Glad it's over

    Apparently, someone crammed 69666 characters of Unifont 13.0.06 into BDF for u8g2
    #font generation, so BDF evidently doesn't have that limit either, and upstream Unifont doesn't do this. Also, because of FontForge limits crashing when importing a lot of glyphs, evidently the BDF is custom on the u8g2 Github, but the problem is that it hasn't been updated to Unifont 15, so while Plane 1 is reduced two versions, Plane 0 is upgraded two versions, without going over 65535, ensuring better BDF compatibility, especially when doing low-level stuff (evidently not needed here). Then again, Minecraft uses .hex files in 1.20 to get around non-HarfBuzz TrueType limits. Also I can't run Unifont compilation utilities on any machine I've tried, so I'm stuck with what I've got.

    Sometimes it's okay to be proud of what you've got.
    I mean, it will work better on the older Linux builds its intended for, and it is actually generatable without crashes in FontForge, or forcing inflexible code to compile, or using the abridged Bits'N'Picas, which hates the BDF enough to not want to make a .hex.

    Compatibility is key, folx.

  16. My new "Federated Universe" micro-blogging instance, using GoToSocial software. Yeah, and I hope this server lasts at least 3 days; if not, then 7 days, or even 1 month lol. 😄☀️ Plus, it has a .my domain, and it can motivate me to stay 😄☀️.

  17. Wrapping up my #Valentines

    My partner is from #Cascais and we both agreed not to make an extreme excursion for a dinner... so how do you impress someone who's lived around the same area most her life?

    Well I chose a lane-switch and went with House of Wonders. A vegetarian restaurant that doesn't have a menu. You simply get to see the dishes as they are served and you point at what you want... and they update regularly!

    I had "Humshukah", a Shakshukah served on top of hummus. @dotmargui had a vegetarian Tom Yam (Thai style soup). Then she had a nice unique brownie and I had a coconut..pudding(?).. It was delicious!

    And before we got home we took a walk and then shared a Chai at Honest Greens.

    @dotmargui here's to more nights like this 💖🫶

  21. While I did order a new oooold stock ink ribbon cartridge for my printer, I decided to try the WD-40 trick to revive an old ribbon.

    Verdict: it mostly works!
