Thought #Patience was on BBC so was going to watch it on iPlayer.

But it's on #Channel4 so, forgetting why I don't watch #C4 online, I registered - really intrusive, forced suggestion q's etc - so naturally I gave all false info...

Then I see they insist on #DRM which is of course why I never watch C4 online.

Fits though, #Channer4News are always pushing #substack and #WhatsApp like good old fascist lapdogs in thrall to the US oligarchs.

Just awful, awful.

Sometimes Monday feels like a whole year compressed into a day. But the real bottleneck often isn’t the schedule — it’s the breath we forget to release.
This week’s reflection explores patience, awkward mammals in community spaces, and the moment an exhale softens a room.

News from the #Floppy #Museum!

A friend of mine, fusion[1] from #OS2Warez, has written a tiny wrapper for #BBS #door programs so I can run them without needing a full-blown BBS. Combined with rlfossil, a telnet-to-serial-port emulator for DOS (yes, really!), you can now read and write messages in my little forum!

Just telnet to floppy.museum on port 8023 - I recommend using #SyncTERM or some other client that implements the IBM 437 codepage, or 850 in a pinch. The experience should be fairly period-correct, something akin to a 1200 baud modem based on my testing.

And just a reminder: This is a 286 machine, which also runs a web server, an IRC server, an FTP server and all of the above at the same time. It's not fast, but it gets the job done.

Also: Only one node at the moment. If it's busy, try again later! Consider it an early beta, for the moment! :D

Les inscriptions de Parrains et Marraines #Linux continuent d'arriver sur la plateforme mais l'envoi de courriels est toujours HS 🤷‍♂️

J'ai donc rajouté un bandeau d'avertissement mais il est bien caché 😅
