Super obscure request, but does anyone know the header format of a file transferred via serial port from a Timex FDD 3000 running TOS? #zxspectrum #sinclair #timex #timex_sinclair #retrocomputing
Sinclair banned Jimmy Kimmel to "protect local communities," yet routinely airs election fraud conspiracy theories and medical disinformation. FCC licenses REQUIRE stations to serve the public interest, not act as partisan gatekeepers.
By blocking programming to score political points, Sinclair and Nexstar betray the communities they’re supposed to serve. That’s why we must fight back.

Can you recommend modern hardware recreations (no software-only emulators) of the ZX Spectrum that are 100% compatible with the BASIC of the original 48K model and don't cost a fortune?
The devices should be fully assembled but kits or boards with no case are an option. They should also provide connections to modern displays and possibly also external keyboards.
I'm aware of these recreations:
ZX Spectrum Next

ESP32 Rainbow

Recreated Sinclair ZX Spectrum

Asking for a friend, an actual friend.
@amoroso Look at The Spectrum, a recreation of the rubbed key ZX Spectrum that emulates 48K and 128K models.
It has 48 pre-loaded games, can use an external USB pendrive to load more games, USB joysticks and USB keyboards.
Last night I picked up this beautiful thing, boxed, for £30! #Sinclair

MAGA’s Little Helpers: Sinclair, Nexstar and the Consolidation of Broadcast TV
PETE TUCKER
“That’s because the local ABC station in the DC area, WJLA, is owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Network. And the right-wing network refused to air the Jimmy Kimmel Show! on any of its 38 ABC affiliates.”

one thing I like about the KATU frog interview is his refusal to exaggerate the severity of the harm he suffered when the ICE pigs sprayed pepper into his air hole. The total opposite of constant, endless MAGA flopping.
I mean he’s also surrounded by ppl who are being harmed by Gestapo pigs on a regular basis, and it’s only a matter of time for him; so why play pretend?

Capitulation leads to more capitulation. We need corporations that will fight for democracy, and must BOYCOTT those who won’t.

And as I keep saying, Sinclair and these affiliate stations are NOT economic behemoths in Disney's class.
They are economic light weights in the bigger picture. So if y'all cancelling Disney+ etc got Disney actin right, just a fraction of that boycott hitting Sinclair directly and you might have something 🤔
And remember, don't over do it on praising Disney for Kimmels -partial- return to air. Its best make sure Disney and friends feel long term impacts so they don't dare this gambit again.

The full episode is available online and already appears to have SIX times its typical view counts over the last month or two.
I swore off Jimmy Kimmel years ago cuz he said some shit about Opera back on the man show... But I'll be damned if they gonna cancel him when he's finally punching up at fascism. So he get a solidarity watch from me today.
Solid boycott idea here for the PNW area

The Sinclair corporation posted on their Twitter account that instead of Jimmy Kimmel they would be airing a news program.
So if you ask me, the Disney boycott should continue in all regions in solidarity with Americans living under the Sinclair censorship regime.
And if you're in Seattle, there's very likely to be even liberals protesting at KOMO HQ tonight again.
It's being reported that Sinclair affiliates, like Seattle's KOMO, will not be returning Jimmy Kimmel to the air
Sinclair media is demanding that Jimmy Kimmel apologize and pay a randsom to be returned to broadcast on Sinclair's stations.

#JimmyKimmel was suspended from his show this week following comments suggesting that fans of #CharlieKirk were trying to capitalize on the conservative activist’s assassination [they are]. Federal Communications Commission [#FCC] Chairman Brendan Carr called the remarks “truly sick” & suggested his agency would look into them.
Carr answers to #Trump, who’s already on record as *disliking* [despising] Kimmel’s comedy.

2 companies that operate ~¼ of #ABC #affiliates nationwide, #Nexstar Media Group & #Sinclair Broadcasting, also said they would not air #Kimmel’s show.
#Disney took a step last Dec to avoid a confrontation w/ #Trump by paying $15M to settle his *defamation* lawsuit against #ABCNews & #GeorgeStephanopoulos. It also made moves to dismantle some of its #DEI practices, including removing references in its annual report to its Reimagine Tomorrow program aimed at “amplifying underrepresented voices.”
