I think it's probably time to get a new laptop, my old MacBook Pro is on its last legs as a daily driver. I bought it new in mid 2013, so it's done well.

Spotted on the swap shop. Amazingly enough the text wasn't just 200 pages of "Don't" in different typefaces and languages.

@loke No idea, it was first published in 1992 if that helps you.

I'm under caffeinated, COVID negative, slightly over packed, too warm and on my way to #EMF

I'm tinkering with some old hard drives, like this ST-251.

@tubetime Do you know of any way to connect these to a modern PC? I've got a few I'd like to try to image.

@tubetime Cheers!

Update on my essential sailing dashboard: it’s now got lighting (LED filament) and an external environmental sensor. E-ink display ensures the readout remains of the last position when shit hits the fan and you lose all power.

Now it’s maybe time to think about a custom PCB and turning it into a tiny production product for all those long-distance sailors out there 😅.

@doc I really like the eink idea.

@coldclimate I've found it unresponsive around 6am (it's doing some housekeeping?) but otherwise it's fine. I've had over a year of uptime with it now. Running on a Pi 4 4 gig.

I'm planning on bringing some #Infrared cameras to #EMFCamp.

Would anyone be interested in participating in thermal photography?
I was thinking of taking photos and videos of people & infrastructure. That sort of thing.

@Edent count me in if you have spares.

What Australian monotreme do you have if you find a mangy old alley cat, in your garden, eating a mallard? A duck filled tatty puss.

@NormanDunbar that's so bad, I might need to borrow that.

If you're listening to a talk and there's a podium, which of the following do you prefer as a listener in the room?

(This is a question of preference, not a "right/wrong" question. Boosts OK.)

@xahteiwi speaker using the microphone however they are presenting.

Let’s start looking forward to it: how will YOU celebrate the utter humiliation and potential annihilation of the Tory party on 4th July?
