  1. I treated myself to a walnut model100 with blank black key caps - it arrived today and: wow, is this a beauty

    I hope I can transfer my model01 layout/color settings without recreating it key for key; for now I get a javascript bug from chrysalis - filed a report - fingers crossed :-)

  2. We have tickets for Rebellion '25 in Blackpool.
    I never bought tickets for something that far in the future - but after our first visit in '23, I'm so excited 😛🤘340 days - a long wait

    Will have to book flights soon and invest in better hearing protection 'til then - my tinnitus doesn't need to get worse :)

    Any recommendations?

  3. Hmm - why can't I simply use a custom ttf as system font on an android phone?

  5. pidwait on my ubuntu-22.04 work machine behaves like pgrep, it simply doesn't wait - what gives?

    I compiled a newer version and put it in my home-dir, but I don't understand what happens.

  6. Color names in prompt specs are no longer prefixed with fg_/bg_ - if you update/recompile and the terminal looks a little bland, that's why.

    is my little project providing a unified dynamic bash/zsh prompt

  7. The whole open (and free) source infrastructure around Microsofts development-tools -- the, for me new, language-server microcosmos -- entering my workflow is thrilling. I have lingering doubts, remnants of the FUD days of yonder, but cannot see how MS could take the results of the adoption away from the FOSS community.

    Check out lsp-mode, dap-mode and the servers available -- I use it for serverside js ( apps ) and PHP development

  8. Here’s #PlaylisterC60’s #8th video

    It’s @grahamward68’s video about the now sadly gone #tomverlaine

    I HAVE to confess, I don’t know as much about #Verlaine’s work as I should: this could possibly be an education …

  16. 1000 Day Album Challenge (#20) Television: The Blow-Up (1982) [20.01.24]

    let me take you to the empty place in my fire engine…

    The Blow-Up was recorded live at My Father’s Place in Roslyn, New York in March of 1978. it was released in 1982 by ROIR (Reachout International Records) available only on cassette. at the time ROIR was a cassette-only label. scanning their discography (discogs.com/label/18316-ROIR?s), my count is that I owned five of their releases. I do believe this was my most cherished.

    Television was a mainstay of the mid- to late-70s CBGBs scene that was ground zero to the creation of punk rock. they never achieved the mainstream success and cultural cache of Talking Heads, Ramones, Blondie, or Patti Smith. still they were the first from the scene to play the legendary club. they were kinda the advance team. in 1974, they were also the first to release a record, the single Little Johnny Jewel which extended over both sides of their Ork Records release. and then somehow, they were among the last to release an album, Marquee Moon (1977).

    this tape is about the joy of rock guitar. which I guess in some respects makes it no different than the rest of Television’s limited output. first up is The Blow-Up which is a renamed cover of 13th Floor Elevators’ Fire Engine. just before Tom Verlaine begins singing you can hear someone in the crowd identify the song as Fire Engine. it seems obvious to me, from this song alone that this is a band in search of transcendence powered by a driving rock beat. the weaving interplay of Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd’s guitars blows me away.

    there are a couple of more covers to mention. I never would have thought of Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door as a guitar song until Television showed me how limited my imagination was. I am realizing, perhaps for the first time, as I listen to his that their version is a Cortez The Killer for the punk rock generation. someone just shouted “go boy! go!” hey, that’s what I was thinking.

    the tape concludes with a galvanic version of The Stones’ Satisfaction. John Piccarella and Robert Christgau wrote in the liner notes, “And Lloyd, always constrained by the necessity of getting his solos and rhythm riffs just right in the studio, goes nuts here--what he wanted to express on `Satisfaction' was so beyond his chops that he would regularly unwind his bottom E string, twist it behind the neck, and tense the guitar like an archer's bow, producing the unearthly noises preserved for posterity on this cassette.”

    you may ask why is a punk rock band covering all of these sixties’ classics? unlike the later starting British punk scene which had the sense that they were destroying or leaving behind what had come before, the New York scene had a stronger sense of history. they viewed themselves as part of a continuum. think of Patti Smith’s gender-bending transformation of Them’s Gloria or Land in which she completely reimagined the classic, Land of a Thousand Dances. shit the Ramones and Blondie were grounded in sixties AM radio classic pop.

    there is a particular standout here that is quite forward-looking. the near 15 minute version of Little Johnny Jewel is definitive. if this doesn’t do it for you then there really is no reason for you to checkout the rest of their music. it’s not for you.

    as the song nears the halfway point it seems like it is coming to an end. the idea that they can take this interpretation further seems preposterous. in a near whisper, Tom Verlaine says/sings, “then he loses his senses” and we are off. it’s like a whole new song. having listened to this countless times I found myself in an excited state of anticipation as the midpoint change of pace approached.

    Tom Verlaine’s performance here, by itself makes him one of my favorite guitarists ever. I truly am breathless as I listen and type. wow! I feel like the term lifechanging does not capture the hyperbole for which I’m searching. maybe on the next listen the right word(s) will find me.
