@douglevin@infosec.exchange I'm a fan of the PocketBook readers. A little pricey, but a good range of sizes and screen types depending on tastes, and physical buttons.

@davidgerard@circumstances.run I guess that big tent just isn't big enough for other makers.

@Edent@mastodon.social Ah yes... the classic on this from @codinghorror@infosec.exchange https://blog.codinghorror.com/parsing-html-the-cthulhu-way/

@mhoye@cosocial.ca @andrewnez@mastodon.social as all excellent satire, just slightly too close to the bone. 🤣
"The #incident-response Slack channel briefly pivots to a 45-message thread about whether “compromised” should be spelled with a ‘z’ in American English"... along with the Cambridge vs Oxford English factions pivoting to a separate argument whether compromise is actually derived from Greek.

Similarly.... Smalltalk/V 2.0 for Windows 3.0? 🤣🤷♂️
Hmm, @revk@toot.me.uk , a #tindie update, still completely lacking in any detail for "who are we", "what do we do", "what are we going to do" or "how did we get here". all pretty obvious basic stuff you'd assume you'd want to let people know.
also. in the current climate, having someone with a linkedin description of "AI driven circuit design industry" does make you ponder why they'd want to buy up the rights for lots of circuit boards. 🙄 ho hum.

@th oh nice. very nice.... I was trying to get that aesthetic in something I was doing, but wasn't entirely happy with the result. perhaps I'll try to replicate that and see if I can get the right effect.

@garius@mastodon.me.uk argh! Hadn't spotted by subscription had disappeared after a phone calamity/rebuild. 🤦♂️
Right... time to make another GPS tracker board build. No major changes since the last version, just some minor improvements to socket positioning.

and it now has a fully dynamic C# binding too. 🤘
need to tidy that up a bit and add it to the repo.

@rgarner that's standard practice surely... Sabotage would be just measuring once every time.

@edbrindley @tindie no info on the "about us" page, "our terms" is a page from 2015. A bit poor after a "complete relaunch" not really confidence inspiring. 🤷♂️

Also. That's a superbly written contribution policy. 👌

I need to get this going with a @hackaday write-up... Right. That's the goal for this week.

Ok the theory seems straightforward... my prototype using AS7263 sensors less successful. Might need a rethink.

@tobyjaffey I mean if they really want a 'younger looking' version of him.... FFS why not just use an older photo!

@ryanc@infosec.exchange 🤣 nicely done. And indeed, who in their right mind wouldn't pick 'B'

@jwz@mastodon.social and indeed you *have* mentioned that before 🤣 and indeed it's always a terrible mistake.
Replying to
Still learnt a few things. Might see if I can do something else with the 7263s

@kdrnic yes! I was so excited and pleased when I first got Bresenham's algorithm working in 6502 assembly.

@neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk we really need a range of alternative web engines.
Just can't see it happening any time soon though given the complexity of html/CSS/js now.

@sammachin@chaos.social @hugh@social.crablab.uk @russss@chaos.social oooh interesting... do you know want network they use? Couldn't see it on the site anywhere.
Edit: sigh, and answered by someone else before the replies appeared. 🤦♂️
