I just entered the 21st century by installing #PassAndroid via #fdroid. I have to admit that I used to print tickets or store them as PDFs on my mobile device because I did not trust closed source apps for this usecase. #fdroid has become a really useful source for great trustworthy software. #FLOSS

Time to get the #commodore64 out of the closet. #c64 #SIDchipclub #LMan

SID Chip Club by Markus Klein (#LMan)

Received the digital version today, cartridge will follow soon.

I feel silly tonight: Dark Star

One of the few records that never gets old to me, even after nearly 30 years. #WhiteZombie #Nineties

Not sure if art.

@nause_marc OTOH: Maybe my #Amazfit #Bip would get a GPS fix faster if I did not turn off the watch at night. I guess I'll have to investigate... 🤓

Just read this article about the bangle.js smartwatch: https://www.golem.de/news/bangle-js-im-test-die-smartwatch-fuer-bastler-2006-148951.html (German, also mentions #Gadgetbridge)

Now I am tempted to get one (again). The GPS of my Amazfip Bip is very unreliable and takes ages to get a fix (no AGPS updates since I use #Gadgetbridge exclusively). Since the #bangeljs does not seem to support AGPS I don't know if it will work any better for me. Is there anybody out there who can share experience?

Possibly the most appropriate drink at the moment.

The #AOSP calendar app is in such a sorry state that #LineageOS replaced it with #Etar (https://github.com/Etar-Group/Etar-Calendar) in the latest builds of the 17.1 branch: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_packages_apps_Etar

Just finished watching the #Tripods (again). I remember it being quite disturbing when I watched it as a kid. It's a shame that the #BBC cancelled the show before producing series 3. Maybe one day I should read the books for the whole story.

It happened again. Microsoft Windows Defender Antivirus thinks that the #SonarLint plugin for #Eclipse is malware after the 1.315.401.0 update. 🙄

Finally done. My #SegaMegaDrive has a new enclosing now. 50/60Hz and language switches moved from the top to the back. Added proper stereo audio out jacks and s-video out which provides a nice crisp image.

Just spent an hour debugging a trivial circuit wondering why the video output lacked color. Then flipped the 50/60Hz switch. 🤦 #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis #modding
