LET'S GO #BLUEJAYS

i am determined to single-pawedly bring back the #chumby ecosystem

i've published my first #chumby widget:

http://chumby.com/guide/C78EE13C-CE96-37DB-8202-C7A207F24A0D/widget

it's a weather widget that's inspired by WeatherSTAR 4000-era The Weather Channel, currently it's limited to guessing your location but the next step will be making a way to choose an exact location to report about

and fuck the yankees

anyone got a cool list of webcams that are of the streaming on a webpage kind and not of the hardware to plug in your computer kind. where's the next xcoffee

today in "stop using chrome":

"DateTimeFormat Welsh locale in Chrome missing"

Safari and Firefox are unaffected by this as they include the Welsh locale by default.

you *will* fuck up and hurt ppl who don't deserve it, both culpably and not. the question is how you respond to finding out that you did

wee bit a juice

@ilovecomputers I feel like the core of what we loved about the internet is there - it's hiding in chat rooms, little closed member forums, hand crafted websites. It's not gone, just harder to see, but if you dig through the muck, you find yourself in a small meadow with a few other folks who might share with you something good.

ahh it's coming along #chumby

is anyone in southwest UK (and can pick up in person) in want of a SE FDHD for a negotiable price? i don't have the space to keep this one.

mouse is missing, starts up and looks for boot so electronics are mostly ok but hard drive isn't, screen is incredibly dim and grows dimmer by the second suggesting either analog board recap or CRT failure

pacific rim is so good, i wish not naming mechs after slurs was real

i have automatic test deployment set up from pressing F5 in #flashdevelop to seeing my widget running on my #chumby

this involves FTPing the output SWF to my server and then making the chumby play that file from the internet. no USB drives needed!

Despite making major headway on my debts (no more credit card!), I do still have a student loan to pay, and this month's payment is due in two days. And I... haven't earned any money this month. It looks like I will need about $75. Grateful for help/shares. 🙇‍♂️ #MutualAid

the year is 2026. i am activating a new chumby

Jesus fucking Christ, Cory, this is patently ridiculous.

He doesn't engage with Audre Lorde's actual intention & meaning. No, he brings up a Black woman thinker/writer/activist, assures us he knows how "smart" she was, & then dismisses her words out of hand without even superficial engagement by using a cute little analogy.

I'm not trying to nitpick: that is some real colonizer bullshit.
