I made a tour of an obscure window system called Bellcore MGR, made by the Bell Core Research and bearing a strong resemblance to Plan 9's 8.5.

The tour also comes with a short overview of the $HOME MOVIE film authoring tool from 1990. There are many screenshots, a 40-minute long video with Mozart and Liszt, and a hard disk image for 86box.

Like, share, boost, comment <3

I bought a roll of white cardboard to use as a background for product photos in preparation for launching the new #Plushtodon, but naturally, I also used it to update the photos for the previous model. (A few of them still remain on our US shop!)

Not everyone can or should self-host, but there is a lot of middle ground between self-hosting and putting everything on #AWS.

Federated protocols like #XMPP, #ActivityPub, and #SMTP give you choice.

Interesting to see how Amazon Ring is slowly rolling out enabling footage from your doorbell camera to be requested by law enforcement (police, ICE and animal control?). The feature is officially “starting with lost pets” to get people used to the idea.

USB's 5mbit/s data signal causes 2.4Ghz radio interference.

If you have a USB dongle for #Bluetooth or Wireless mouse that has awful range or intermittently lags, connect it via a short USB extension cable.
