For BBC Micro fans, the mode 7 teletext Acornsoft loading screen is iconic

So I've been adding customised versions to some of my more sophisticated Elite hacks

That's better - I should have done this ages ago!

See https://elite.bbcelite.com/hacks/ for more hacking goodness

Technically this isn't an actual acorn; it's a eucalyptus seed pod, but it looks very similar in size and features.

I set a weekend coding challenge, and that motivated me to write a thing in BBC Basic for the Beeb. It shows what you might see next Wednesday during the partial eclipse, from Birmingham UK.

Does anyone from the old #Acorn #RISCPC days also have one of these? I remember being in a meeting room at their office one day to discuss a gaming related SWI module?

More Electron coding, and this time we get going with Modes and Colours, looking at the 6 screen modes available on the Elk.

Also look at some commands that help with coding too. Ooh… 😮

The Programmer’s Fulcrum 17 July, 2026

#Blacksky : “The focus on #smallcommunity is what's keeping people in, not artificial walls.
Now, they're extending all of that experience to folks who want to run communities on the #opensocialweb in the same way.
With #Acorn, the team is helping other communities drop #drawbridges out of #Bluesky into smaller, community-owned and maintained spaces just like Blacksky.”

Just the occasional reminder that for over 15 years now I‘m a happy customer and user of Flying Meat‘s great Acorn image editor.
Gus Mueller and his family are a prime example why you should support indie software shops.

from 2007: "Well, given that the Acorn ARM chip and Symbian operating system are both British inventions, why don't we even have a leading mobile phone company?"

Didn't Sinclair design an early digital mobile phone (pre-GSM)?

Circling Exoplanet 48539 is the -now defunct- experimental FTL (Faster Than Light) technology centre. With a circumference of over 85 kilometres, this particle accelerator helped to prove the underlying principles of how my ship works. Don’t ask me to describe it, it’s something to do with particles repelling, attracting and opposites together on the other side of the galaxy, all at the same time. But then again, it’s not complicated at all, I just push this button and it jumps.

I hope you’re well and thanks in advance! Please boost!

If you have a little bit of money left over at the end of the month. Please consider donating up to 10% of it to https://gracefoodbanksheffield.org.uk/donations/

I can vouch and explain it is very much well used on providing food for those who cannot afford to buy their own.

Please share and be generous

Had a good day with my eldest. We went to the National Museum Of Computers at legendary Bletchley Park. I've been before, but he hadn't.

Despite his anxiety, he lasted a couple of hours which was better than I expected.

Photos attached.

Holm oak acorn as a new functional Mediterranean food

Acorns of the Holm oak (Quercus ilex) have been part of the landscape of Mediterranean forests and traditional agroforestry system…

Scenes from Oroville, CA
The indigenous California peoples harvested acorns and ground the meal on stone mortars using stone pestles. One of the saddest stories is Ishi, the the last known member of the Native American Yahi people. In 1911, aged 50, he emerged at a barn and corral, 2 mi from downtown Oroville. The rest of the Yahi were killed in the California genocide in the 19th century. #NativeAmerican #indigenouspeople #indigenous #Oroville #California #acorn #ButteCounty #history

Decided to spend the latter half of this rainy day baking #acorn #bread. I got to use some of the flour I had hand ground from wheat I grew last year and flour from acorns I harvested from the oaks in my yard. It is quite delicious, nutty, slight coconut flavor from coconut oil and mildly sweet from honey. It is also satisfying to grow and prepare some of your food.
