AI in science fiction: Insufficent data, unable to compute.

AI in the real world: Here’s a couple of pages that sound plausible.

After an evening wrestling with Inkscape I’m ready for an early night. But the diagram actually looks pretty good, and means I’m significantly closer to publishing an article I wrote six months ago.

I’m secretly happy about the Sonos app-pocalyse. It’s given me the kick I needed to finally ditch it and move to something (hopefully) better.

I’m moving to Denon HEOS. I’m hoping that something from an established audio company with a long history - rather than a tech industry start up - will mean a slower path to enshittification.

@RetroFunPL New ‘improved’ app, rewritten from the ground up.

The UX is horrible. The key pain point for me is that there doesn’t seem to be any way to connect to the NAS. Although it did work for the first five minutes, but the artists list had no A-Z quick links and I was having to scroll down through several hundred entries.

@RetroFunPL zone day I’ll have cable everywhere and LAN sockets. Not sure I want the hassle and disruption just yet though.

Looking at the has anyone wired up the GPIO and done bit banged video from that rather than use the built in video stuff?

@Dtl Compared to a Pico it’s only single core and a much slower clock speed. I’m guessing it’s doable but with low resolution and frame rate.

@GrantMeStrength One day every DIP chip will have a tiny FPGA hidden underneath it.

And I only just found this. I didn’t realise the Flan name actually made it into production.

This means it’s a revision 4 board, from the first production run. The run with bugs in the video chip and ROM.

@saustrup Just something I read on the Enterprise Forever forum. The issue 4 had the Flan name on the board. Those were the boards used in the Enterprise 64s. I don’t know anything beyond that. I got the impression that was the first production run. Presumably the earlier issues were prototypes.
