I want to give #Mastodon a proper go this time, but it's hard to connect with people when no-one follows you, and hashtags only get you so far. 😞

So, if you like one of the hashtags below, please consider following me, and if you do, I'll follow you back! Thank you. 💗

ADM-3A terminal first test: this is a triumph.

You may now point your terminal (emulator) of choice towards office.c3post.de:4711 and try the first version of the #38c3 Terminal Office (make sure to disable local echo/linefeed conversion stuff).

If you have socat available you can use basically any common terminal emulator with this command: socat stdio,raw,echo=0,echoctl=0 tcp-connect:office.c3post.de:4711
Telnet/netcat might also work if you know the correct options (I don't).

Happy 40th Birthday to probably one of the most important and influential computer games ever written, Elite.

If you have ever worked with Deluxe Paint or heard about it, be sure to check out PyDPainter, a great and free resurrection of the legendary DPaint pixel editor.

I need to commission the creation of new logos and banners for social media and studio8502.ca. I am perfectly willing to pay a reasonable fee, but I’d like to know the amount up front.
