"Your only as good as your last mistake." Um. ... Uh. ... Aren't mistakes bad? Who's writing this?!

@cmdln It’s like “you’re only as good as your last performance” but he is a professional mistake-maker.

What are some numbers in your field that anyone else in the field would identify without even thinking about it, but folk outside may have no idea. Just the numbers, no explanations. Yet.

Does anyone happen to know whether the ".xm" tracker format is little or big endian

According to wikipedia this is the best available documentation https://github.com/milkytracker/MilkyTracker/blob/master/resources/reference/xm-form.txt and it does not say. I assume it's little endian because DOS, and because the one big-endian field in the documentation is specifically marked as such, but like, idk

Fell in love with the gameboy camera again and I've been having a go at trichrome photography (combining red/green/blue-filtered exposures over a grayscale sensor to produce a color image). I'm really happy with how well the colors came out on this one!

@bk1e@mastodon.social avatar

@luna Heh, that reminds me of using DigiView on the Amiga to digitize color images with a black and white CCTV camera and a color wheel.

I’m finishing setting up my 11” iPad Pro (M4). It replaces a fairly banged iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation) from 2018. I will post impressions in this thread.

(No, I did not set it up in Spanish. I just happened to take the photo when it showed the signed in Spanish)

(I normally post to my blog but I will instead just add to this thread as things pop up in my mind)

@kirsch One kind of weird feature of the M1 iPad Pro and later is that you can plug it into a Thunderbolt dock to use an external monitor, mouse, keyboard, audio, Ethernet, etc.

How often do I use this feature? Well, I tried it again just now and apparently this is the first time I’ve ever tried Stage Manager.

@kirsch My M1 iPad Pro is disappointed that it wasn’t invited to the 4th iPad Prom.

Coffee cannot be canned.

I know lots of roasters / cafes / brands are doing exactly that, but they are killing the taste of coffee. So they add shit in to make it taste better. Because canned coffee tastes bad on its own.

@futurebird Because it’s the perfect excuse to quote the Simpsons “Steamed Hams” sketch in your replies? Apparently they’re fried, though.
