“TikTok”’ Pasta — This is my adaptation of an easy weeknight pasta dish that was popular on TikTok a few years ago. This is in regular rotation in our house
Had my personal worst farkle yet 2500 points in one roll (tripple 1's and tripple 5's) rolled again and farkled with 6 dice :( anyone else got some high point farkles to share?
hello world? — Hi everyone! This is just me trying the post editor after creating my account. Mistakes will be made, but lets see how it goes. Its not clear to me how this editor interface works. It looks like I get to edit a draft, chunk by chunk. Adding a paragraph of text, or a link. This is a rather creative way to go about the limitations of the protocol. The 'Editing text' link is a bit of misnomer, it actually gives an input to replace the existing text with something new. But it works...

Plasma 6.1 due for release very soon Wondering if anyone else is excited for Plasma 6.1? When I first used GNU/Linux KDE just got bumped to KDE 3, shortly afterwards I found Gnome and stuck with it until Gnome 3, then I switch to tiling window managers. A couple of weeks ago I decided that I'd install KDE again, having not followed its developments I figured meh... it cannot be as bad as Gnome 3, right? I was pleasntly suprised that KDE/Plasma has come leaps and bounds from its 3.x days!

[preformatted] Building a Better Text World: Notes on Reviving ASCII Culture Gemini is famously a text-first protocol, one that improved upon Gopher by shifting to UTF-8 encoded gemtext. That being said, there remains a lot we can do to improve text culture. The purpose of this document is to briefly outline the general features of what ASCII is, should be, and could be. It is not complete. Follow up these leads with your own investigations. What is ASCII? ASCII, like fascism, is a term...

Leaderboard available — Good news, everyone! The Rangers now have an account in galactic credits! And a table of records is available, where you can compare completed quests and the amount in your account. There are rumors that some quests have a cap on the maximum amount of credits, and millions can turn into a couple of thousand, but not sure. Added names of systems and planets from the game. Selected randomly, but according to race. And even...

Anyone else listen to the BBC Mixtape podcast from BBC6? They seem to have stopped posting the podcasts this June. They are still making them and putting them on the website but they aren't going out to at least Pocket Cast.

NAQCC Spring tonight: 12JUNE24 from 0030-0230z time. Just worked KG2RG in Albany (short hop) on 40m and he was LOUD and clear so hopefully a good nite for it QRPheads. The North American QRP CW Club has been around for a while now and evnts like this a little hit and run but as they repeat a lot it's not bad practice and if you like the paperchase good fun. Best of luck to anyone taking a whack at it. I'm NAQCC#196 so I might jump on later for a quick FB QSO... [http link]

Tikkun Leil It's been a long time since I've missed the all nice learn-a-thon/dairy party in the hours before Shavous.

I am still amazed at the persistance of the contester! There was digital calling on 10m yesterday and little else could be heard. Adverse conditions and the alure of the soasp box have provided wonderful poor conditions alternatives. There have been so many advances I wish my elderly friends in the hobby had access to even 10 years ago. Many had moved into the assisted living phase of their lives and no longer had the ability to fly and antenna. With modes like DMR /Dstar/YSF but also the...

The Wall CGI - source published — I added the C sources for my Wall CGI. It is an example of a minimal CGI - compiles to 14KB, minimal execution footprint, and the data is limited to 64KB max (old messages will be truncated). My Wall (link above) has been running for about a year alongside SpellBinding. Scribble a message if you feel like it.

Getting shouted — More often than not, my wife shouts at me whenever she thinks I do something wrong, or in a way she did not expect. On one ocasion, I was shouted in front of her friends because our kid got hurt while I was playing with their kids. I am also usually shouted or criticised by her in front of relatives and friends. Today, she shouted at me because I did not approve her complaints about my increase phone usage since I was literally forced to use WhatsApp. When I get tired of this,...

New anime, Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction I was quite positively charmed by this new anime, the different drawing style, the post-apocaliptic world. It's a solid start! Not sure why it's in between 2 anime season. You can see the 3 first episod with ``` ani-cli Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction``` or visiting [https link]

Ideas on how to teach children, e.g. 10 or 14 year olds, about computers, hardware and software. A project instead of playing Minecraft and Brawl Stars. More designing instead of consuming. I haven't really found anything yet, maybe you have an idea.
