Anyone have a favorite desktop publishing app for DOS or win31 with inline jpg support?
A word processor with inline jpg support is also acceptable. Especially if it saves RTF natively.
I'm trying to make the #zinestation a little more of a standalone publishing rig.

I've been spending a lot more time away from my home lately (and I'm several years removed from my last full time Computer-Touching gig) and I now feel like it's time to Omnibook once more.
The #zinestation lives.

For a long time, it was my primary "not at the house" machine.
I wrote nearly every episode of #expeditionSasquatch on my #zinestation, I produced a few dozen zines, too.
I've never been happier with a computer.

Okay, that's out of the way.
Issue one has three articles: one about my HP Omnibook (#zinestation) one about my DIY replacement for the Sony Portapak, and one about DIY Convertible Computing hardware.
I published this one a few years ago. I intended to do a followup, but last year was not a good year for me.
This year is a better year, it's time to write a followup.
But ... well, I haven't done much wacky computer bullshit in the last year beyond #NewEllijayTelevision and the things that Sundog and I are working on.
And I haven't written much about computers in the last year.
So uhhhhhhhhh now I need to figure out what the next issue is going to be about.

@stooovie I don't have photos handy, but I'm sure you can find some if you can find a way to view that hashtag ( #zinestation ) on this server.

There are certain kinds of creation, consumption, and communication that are wholly modern, that only work in a fully graphical environment with low latency, high bandwidth broadband.
I can't really edit photos on my #zinestation because it's a 386 (or occasionally a 486) with a monochrome screen and 4MB or 8MB of RAM.
Video production is right out! The thing doesn't even have a sound card, for me to attempt working with audio.
On the other hand, I use it to write nearly every episode of Expedition Sasquatch. I send most of my personal emails from that box, and I have (through various tricks) gotten it on the fediverse. I don't post much from the zinestation anymore, but I used to read and post from it and my palm pilots often enough (with tricks! It's all tricks! We'll get there.)

It has been brought to my attention that I haven't talked about Jupiter's Ghost recently enough for even people who know me well to know what the hell I am talking about so
It's time to talk about my pet project.
Not the #zinestation or the #zinestation486
and not the #spacelarpcafe (although very nearly the space larp cafe)
Today, right now, and for the foreseeable future, I'm talking about #jupitersghost or #jg, what it is, what I want it to be, and how you can get involved.

CW: Computing (finally getting to the point)
I want a computer that runs on AA batteries, has an SD Card reader or microSD card reader, standard I/O (USB, HDMI or Display Port, wifi)
I currently keep my omnibook 300 in my Media Bag because it is the perfect machine for writing. It runs for weeks on 4 rechargeable AA batteries, it's blazing fast (as a writing machine and literally nothing else) and it has standard, if outdated, I/O making it easy to integrate in to the rest of my setup.
I use it to write scripts, make zines (#zinestation) and publish web pages.
But it certainly can't edit video, or audio, and can *barely* edit photos with a lot of patience.

(Yes, I own a computer that runs windows.
Three, actually. Well, no. Five.
One for printers and other Windows Only hardware at the maker space.
One for Win98.
One is my #zinestation running win31.
One is my wife's old laptop that we keep around in case I need old documents or whatever, that got pulled in to double duty as our media server.
And the last one is a GPD WIN 3 that I use for playing games.
I love the zinestation, and the GPD Win (although I'll probably install SteamOS on it, because Windows is pretty shit Outside of Steam on that formfactor), but otherwise, I am physically repulsed every time I have to touch one of these boxes.
Nothing works. Everything is broken and hidden and unfixable.

I think during the next show, we'll do a radio show read in front of the stage while the bands are tearing down between sets.
Something in the style of The Thrilling Adventure Hour.
Which means I need to write that, and also Flo's monolog.
I guess I'll be dusting off the #zinestation tomorrow.

I use my Omnibook as a wordprocessor, or specifically as a #zinestation connected to a dot matrix printer.
I use my mac plus as a development box in hypercard, I was previously using it as an email box.
I've used my c64 to connect to BBSs.
I have an amiga that I'm hoping to use as part of a video editing rig.
