dj put anywhere
turns out SMS Plus runs pretty ok so far on the #picocalc ?
no CPU overclock. no framebuffer. ROM currently in flash but SD loading to PSRAM is feasible for no (commercial) ROM size limit.
and this is 1.3, not the usually ported 0.9.3

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/golfmovies.html - Perhaps I was taken in a fit of sleep-deprived punnery, or distant memories of Mad Magazine type nonsense. But here is a list of... entirely fictional golf movies.
windows is so much better than Linux if only because i don't feel patronised every time i turn my computer on
"but documentation is good actually" Manpages are the worst fucking kind of documentation known to mankind and the only good ones are the ones written sarcastically
if i need to read a manpage to learn how to Fucking do a Normal Established Thing in my Computer i'm turning you off and returning you to the dumpster i picked you up from
manpage is one of the main reasons normal people will never enjoy or even consider to use Linux

I declare that today, Nov. 19, 2025 is the 50th anniversary of BitBLT, a routine so fundamental to computer graphics that we don't even think about it having an origin. A working (later optimized) implementation was devised on the Xerox Alto by members of the Smalltalk team. It made it easy to arbitrarily copy and move arbitrary rectangles of bits in a graphical bitmap. It was this routine that made Smalltalk's graphical interface possible. Below is part of a PARC-internal memo detailing it:

In 1982, a physics joke gone wrong sparked the invention of the emoticon
A simple proposal on a 1982 electronic bulletin board helped sarcasm flourish online.

i remember an article a very long time ago on "how to ask questions" in the context of tech spaces i.e. "can i do Y" vs "how can i use X to do Y in Z" but i can't find anything of the sort now, does anyone know anything like that?
