Forgot to show the result of yesterday's #bbq!
Even ln though the meat I used for the #brisket was a bit too lean for my tastes, the result came out decent enough. The #PorkKnuckle will be eaten this evening, as I'll be out all day and without time to prepare dinner! #cooking
Just put on the #brisket and #pork knuckle (that's tomorrow's dinner). This week my parents had their wedding anniversary, so today I'm #cooking and this evening me and my partner we'll go having dinner with them.
Close inspection of today's work instrumentation. Getting ready for some #bbq. #catpics

Tusky, the third-party Android client for Mastodon/ActivityPub that I use/contribute to, is currently being blocked from updating by Google. Link to middle of a thread by the lead dev about the problem:

https://chaos.social/@ConnyDuck/109004246710026919

They claim there's no "terms of use", ignoring/not understanding Tusky operates no sites and so cannot have terms of use. It's like banning a web browser for not enforcing terms of use.

EDIT: Please note the date on this post before boosting. The problem is now resolved

Attached: 1 image Here is the rule they say Tusky violates. Yes Tusky shows "User generated content" but I don't have any control over it. There are also no terms of use, why would Tusky have terms of use, it makes no sense.

Cleaned the #PSX up, washed the plastics, dusted off the boards. Still scuffed and marked, but at least no grime. I am considering programming an #attiny micro with the open #PSNee #modchip.
After that, hopefully I'll have some time really to play with the new open SDK for this console.

#playstation #retrogaming

Filthy #PlayStation from the last #fleamarket . Incredibly, it's without a modchip.

Yesterday I bottled and sterilized a new batch of my #fermented #hotsauce , made with a mixture of #hotpeppers and #garlic.

For my taste, it's a bit too hot to be used standalone this time. I will use it mixed with other preparations, like #bbq sauces.

I haven't forgotten TAVA FLYER #portablepc and my idea to map its "16 bit expansion connector". Just... it's been two very busy weeks.

That thing has all the address and data lines coming through it via buffers and latches, as expected. Tracing lines that go directly to the CPU/DMA controller is easy, but for those that get lost in a logic jungle of 74' ICs I fear I'll have to start drawing a schematic.

Nuvola and Grisรน on a #tractor this afternoon, just before I called them in to feed them.
