Holy crap, I haven’t played this in over 12 years!! Yeah!!!
I’m remembering this machine. I did have a simplified reinstall on one of the spinning drives, which is what this is. The SSD had an install a bunch of airplane and scenery add-ons, but that’s toast (too bad; I’m sure all the downloads were on there too). I also had Prepar3D installed, but it wanted to reauthorize.
Because I never get rid of anything, I still had had the yoke, throttle, and autopilot. I’ve also got rudder pedals, not yet connected.
And of course I didn’t have a 30” Apple display back in the days; was lucky if I had a 22” 1080p. That the 30” display is dwarfed by the tower tells you just how ginormous this case is.
The impetus for getting a 15 year old sim platform up and running will be the subject of a future post :)

Code, Force, Repeat. Олдскульный GUI для олдскульных скриптов. Часть 1. Экспозиция
В этот раз я пришёл с двухчастным текстом про F#, тайппровайдеры, скрипты, спортивное программирование, MVU, консольные интерфейсы в стиле FarManager, низкоуровневый интероп с виндой, некоторое количество хаков ХМ и, внезапно, живопись. Причём только консольные интерфейсы с некоторой натяжкой можно назвать центральным элементом повествования, поэтому я понятия не имею, как должен выглядеть потенциальный читатель этой статьи. Будем исходить из предположения, что он либо достаточно опытен, либо у него достаточно времени и усердия, чтобы расковырять всё, что я не счёл должным разобрать детально ( я могу, но только за 16 глав ). Сегодня мы изучим небольшой .fsx -скрипт, который я ежедневно запускаю, чтобы получить очередную порцию задачек из архива codeforces.com. Необычно то, что скрипт функционирует как полноценное GUI-приложение, пусть и очень страшное старое. Кажется, что до меня так никто не делал, так что с осторожностью назову это авторской инновацией.

An aborted journey into accessible flight simulation:
It's been quiet here for a couple of weeks because a project I was hoping to begin fell through.

FSX (a new modern file system module for Node.js) looks really nice. Intelligent defaults and support for mocking designed in.
Would love to see this in core.

Updated AWS::FSx::Volume
Use the AggregateConfiguration, SizeInBytes, and VolumeStyle AWS::FSx::Volume OntapConfiguration properties when creating FSx for ONTAP volumes.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-fsx-volume.html #fsx #cloudformation -
Updated AWS::FSx::Filesystem
Use the HAPairs and ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair AWS::FSx::FileSystem OntapConfiguration properties to create a scale out FSx for ONTAP file system.

fucking #amazon #aws bullshit, you literally can't create a single-AZ #FSx filesystem, probably on purpose. The docs claim you can, but if you try, no matter what you do, it will always fail. The difference between a single-AZ and a multi-AZ deployment, pricewise, is literally an order of magnitude. Gee, I wonder what their motivation is. Fuckers

Updated AWS::FSx::Filesystem
The AWS::FSx::FileSystem OpenZFSConfiguration and AWS::FSx::FileSystem WindowsConfiguration resources were updated.

Updated AWS::FSx::Volume
Use the SnapLock Configuration resource to create an ONTAP SnapLock volume.

I was just in a chat about Flight Simulator 2020 and shared this video I made ~15 years ago comparing the original version of Flight Simulator II on the 1MHz Apple II to FS X on a 3.2GHz Pentium 4.
Back then, FS2020 would've blown my mind, as would have FS X back in the Apple II days.

CW: Proof I'm a FlightSim Fanatic
I've been in #FlightSimulation on and off for 30 years. I prefer flying heavy metal but I also enjoy turboprops and some GA aircraft.
I fly mostly #XPlane ATM but I also fly #MSFS. I never got into #Prepare3D. I went to XPlane directly from #FSX.
Currently fly for The Delta Virtual & Virtual Cargo International VAs and I have my own airline on FS Charter called Air America.
