In a different direction, remembered this nice darkwave from Greece, "Selofan"
Found this haunting track on Bandcamp recently, can't even describe it. Ominous baroque neoclassical conjuration? Sounds like the intro to a Cradle of Filth album, and I was so wishing their music bursts into some kind of black metal harshness -- unfortunately no such luck haha ;)

You need these in your life. Pay what you want on Bandcamp. Just too good not to harass everyone about. I am unreasonably happy about this haha

"Bandcamp will keep operating as a standalone marketplace and music community" .... yeah, for the next X months until they rebuild it all as part of Epic Store app.
OK seriously WTAF IS THIS https://blog.bandcamp.com/2022/03/02/bandcamp-is-joining-epic/
Found some cool old stuff. Adobe Magazine(!) from 1997 and ComputerLife magazine, also from 1997, with an interview with Rand Miller. Will have to get better photos and send that to him. Love digging through this stuff. I have a bunch more as well, some 90’s graphic design catalogues featuring fonts, clip-art, software etc… oh got a MacWarehouse issue even! haha
Looking for Ukrainian artists on Bandcamp to support, found this ultra-sick old-school ebm \m/ https://circulaire.bandcamp.com/album/bandit
Ohh nice, the book "OCaml from the Very Beginning" has been made available for free, in various formats! https://johnwhitington.net/ocamlfromtheverybeginning/
"A book for those new to programming, or new to functional programming, or just new to OCaml."
I mean, it’s intended to be a thin client for X so it should theoretically still work just fine… I might have to try it out (tho with zero documentation I don’t know how these “boot” or connect to an X server)
so I’ve had this seemingly-useless old thin terminal PC for years. got it from Value Village for $10, suspecting the nondescript gray “pizza box” might be something interesting. I knew it was Motorola-powered but I just checked and it quite interestingly has a Motorola 88k processor (MC8100RC20)!!! very cool! I don’t really have any use for it but… pretty neat artifact. The machine is a Network Computing Devices MCX-L from 1992 and unfortunately I can find very little about it online.
does anyone know of any courses/training to teach about “green coding” best practices and teaching that mindset etc.? #permacomputing #greencoding
writing a lot of code and dabbling with all sorts of tech; music/audio, electronics, photography, 3d art/modeling, amateur radio… I am interested in pretty much everything
