So SWPC and Spaceweather.com are taking note that there are CME heading towards earth from a recent solar eruption. They expect that they will impact the planet 10MAY24-11MAY24. As is normal it'll be overcast here in NY when something potentially interesting in the sky is happening.... Perhaps it'll cause some audio distortions as it has in years past on the 40m band...

SO... If you're looking for something that's a bit of a brain bender to watch, saw Junk Head last night. It's a Japanese Stop Motion film. It's pretty wild and if you need resolution at the end of a movie, keep scrolling...

Went to bed thinking about what YouTube feeds. Is there a sort of YT feed? Is is like manga that fits into a classification, slice of life vs mecha? I find I have one in particular, SternTube that is a compilation of "interesting" shorts. It's almost slice of life in a way. It's not Win nor Fail, not just funny either. A lot of tech reviews and music after that "type".

Been trying out some of the alternative smolweb places. Most recently I've been on Mastodon and it's been really just a wasteful distraction by comparason to the building and learning my BBS and the Gemini space has encouraged. It's got it's place I suppose but iI think my presence there might take a rapid back seat.

In the realm of greater nerd-dom I got myself a Kura-Toga pencil. It rotated the lead as you write with it to make sure it's always making a smooth line... I love Japanese stationary..

Bread glorious bread.... We had pasta tonight! I'm sure it's better for me to be without but nothing like some noodles and red sauce. In other news I've constructed the ALICE type keyboard from AJAZZ and it's quite nice. The process was pretty painless for something that had no instructions really. the key caps look a little different but not bad and mostly I was into this layout for the ergonomics of the thing. So, first impressions from vs my STAR61 from Magegee... this thing it way easier to work with but then again it's a 75% and the layout is really about comfort over gaming and size. The other wil make a great work board for when I'm CAD drafting and just want to imput a little.

Well, Pesach ends tonight. Here's at something like 20:58 because all Jewish time is local time. To return to the land of things bready it will be the very traditional pizza and beer. What an odd season. It reminds me of my old Community College professor Howard Jitomer... he'd curse us every class that we might live to see interesting times.... I hope it's been interesting enough for him. Chag Sameach.

Keyboard junkie: I'm late to this game as well. Here I've just been playing with ARTSEY.IO and while it's been good for a single hand typing experience it's not really quick enough for me. I'll be playing with an alice layout next but I'd love to be able to flash a new layout to my magegee Star61. I'd like to set it up QUERTY wide. I like the idea of the extra spacing but I don't want to just use a software mapping to do this. I want it on the keyboard so I can swap it around... poo something will strike me.

Aux Lang: Esperanto seems to be the default still but I have recently started to chase the children of Esperanto. Ido seems like a better constructed language in every way to Esperanto except that so few are using it. I have found some side by sides but very little Ido in GemSpace. Any leads would be appreciate.

Slowly figuring out the Gemini thing. I think I like it quite a lot. Being a BBS sysop it just all makes sense. Perhaps it deeper than that. Perhaps it's just growing old and remembering how things were coupled with how things are and seeing how things could be?
