Oh dear. This is a fascinating little device: https://spectrum.ieee.org/geek-life/hands-on/write-without-distraction-with-this-diy-eink-typewriter
#eInk #TypeWriter for distraction-free editing. Unlike many attempts, this does not attempt to make eInk refresh fast, but incorporates a second LCD screen. The LCD screen shows what you need to know while writing, the eInk screen shows what you wrote, so you can read it back. Fascinating idea!

few things are as genuinely calming as sitting in front of a full-screened, dark terminal containing a personal project, with music in the background
Working on a status tracker for my online systems: Riot instance, wiki, home gateway and such.
It’ll be hosted on a server in Tokyo, so even though I couldn’t make it to the meet-up at least some of my code will be running in the same city 
Finally gotten around to adding Merveillien sites to my RSS feed, let me know if yours has one so I can expand the list!

@rosano I noticed the webring icon at the bottom of your site, so I moused over it then experienced sheer delight when it started spinning :D
Did a much needed server spring clean today.
Removed old services that weren't being used and destroyed all the broken docker containers (still haven't got the hang of those yet).
Next month I'm gonna try and get a copy of the Oban Star Racers art book. That show has fantastic style and animation.
Back in 2013, when I was in college, I tried to make a sprite sheet renderer as a base for a game engine in Java.
I found the source code buried in a folder on my Dropbox this morning. The result was a rather trippy.

@ckipp Has there been any more planning of the Euro meet-up? I’ve not been online very much of over the past month so I’m worried I might have missed something.
I know it’s not very productive but I’ve been playing WoW for the first time over the past week and it’s gotten me thinking about it’s story quests, how the designers built them and the way that even though everyone can do them they still make you feel like you are a part of something greater.
Add on to that the fact that I’m playing as a lesser seen race on the Alliance side and it really feels like I’m an outsider just experiencing the world.
Spent my day off working on a RP campaign story set on a world who’s inhabitants overthrew its magic weilding wardens. I’ve been looking at systems to use as the “game” part of the campaign and was wondering if anyone has experience using GURPS?
A fun tool to see how your sites would look if someone connnected via the NeXT interface: https://worldwideweb.cern.ch/
To see a site go to Document -> Open from full document reference.
My wiki has a few glitches due to JS not being supported and there being no support for dark backgrounds but the text is fully legible.
