Some 40 years ago, my dad took a leap and decided to import and resell the #Enterprise64 microcomputer from the United Kingdom. This was indeed the era of the "micro", and lots of options were available like the #Spectrum, #Amstrad, #NewBrain, #Lynx and numerous others. Unfortunately competition was hard, and the Enterprise was delayed for almost a year. Eventually they went bankrupt and all stock was exported to Eastern Europe where it got a second life among some very hard core enthusiasts. Very few were actually sold in Denmark - I would assume less then a hundred - and today I managed to get my hands on the third one in my collection. Inherited from his dad, the seller had no idea what to use this for. It's very much a special item, and very far from the mainstream like the Commodore 64. It is nevertheless a fascinating machine, sporting a #Zilog#Z80 with support for up to 2MB RAM. The operating system also contained IS-BASIC, and was a bliss to work with.
No one has asked me, but I propose "Minnesota Fierce" as the permanent name of #PWHL Minnesota. Much like how the #MinnesotaTimberwolves (#NBA) and #Lynx (#WNBA) have distinct names that pair together well, I think #MinnesotaWild and #MinnesotaFierce would make a great duo and "Fierce" is evocative of a competitive, brave team.
@eddeeMN@hockey@pwhl I originally was going with the Valkyrie crowd. Fierce I can get on board with. But overal at this point, I’m wishing they would stick with just PWL Minnesota. I think that really says it all, for good, or ill.
Started playing with Lynx CLI web browser again. It's amazing how well it renders pages.
However, is there a way for it to only load the body of an page? Or remove headers? #lynx#debian#linux#webbrowser
So @deb and I finally checked out The Wild Animal Sanctuary right outside of Denver. They’re really doing some wonderful work to provide a healthy home to so many animals that have had a hard life! If you ever have the chance to check it out I HIGHLY recommend you swing by and help support their work and get to see some new friends while you’re at it. Honestly it’s so nice to see these animals have so much space roam and be happy and healthy.
Oh and this is where a lot of the Tiger King tigers ended up.
Here are some highlights of the obscene amount of photos I got today 😆
Default #Lynx install colors seems to have a lot of white/gray text on light blue background. This combo has too little contrast. I cannot see what it is telling me. 😮 #CLI

Day 1 we arrive at the place where we hope to see the rarest cat in the world, the Iberian Lynx. Immediately Mick spots a lynx. We pour excitedly out of the car, grabbing binoculars & cameras. 1st attempt at a photo fails because I've left lens cap on. 2nd fails as the camera settings all wrong. Managed to get photo just as the lynx ... is heading into a bushy area never to re-emerge. Doh! Anyway, here is a photo of the arse end of a lynx 🤣🤣🤣
I completely redesigned my website. Now you have a similar viewing experience using FireFox, NetSurf, or Lynx. I also wrote a post on the state of the web in 2024, and that explains why I thought the redesign was needed.
"But YouTube is now a money making place, a potential gold mine where content creating prospectors seek ad revenue, Patreon money, and the sponsorship. The American Dream manifested as a URL. Gone are the days of making videos for fun. The possibility of striking a silver or gold play button always looms large."
I've decided about putting my fursona Kuro up for auction. They come with over 60 pieces of art and counting along with a pre-made fursuit nub tail (made to order, you MUST provide shipping costs for this) made by me.
The character includes some art that contains a character that belongs to an ex partner(s) of mine, you will not have character rights to their OC but you will have rights to edit, alter, etc Kuro. You can crop out their character(s) from the art to just leave Kuro. Please have a Toyhou.se account if not I can save Kuro for you to keep artists credits, etc, etc intact.
I can accept PayPal and CashApp. I prefer CashApp if possible! The character is well over $300 in value but I am willing to haggle!
