Wait, what... World of Goo 2?

dump1090 comes with a webpage showing which aircraft it is currently tracking, although I suspect the maps don't run offline.

I think that was quite common in that era - probably from typewriters which had a shift lock rather than a caps lock (as due to the mechanical nature it isn't possible to shift just the alphabetic characters on a typewriter). Commodore used Shift Lock on their computers pre-Amiga (also it was a physical clicky button, which is the most satisfying thing ever).

I've just noticed there's a Fediverse "optic", so you can restrict it to Fediverse sites.

Tbh I just saw it needed a login and scrolled back up to the link without reading further, so was obviously a bit hasty in my assessment of it being a paywall.

To save reading the paywalled article, the site is at https://stract.com

I've only done a single search but it gave me a summary at the top, and some discussion forums in a different format. I'm impressed so far!

They need to be trained on the film "Wargames". Or forced to pay Noughts & Crosses against themselves.

I don't know. Mastodon already supports audio posts, how does that federate? Why can't Threads do the same thing?

I find this very useful to read paywalled articles that Google has managed to index!

OK, I see why they might want to get rid of it.

I think this is the same trick gone wrong (from about 3.06) https://youtu.be/4kq3VIGNffM?si=idG_qZewtXYwDMMB

I had a car with a leaky radiator. I would fill it up with water in the morning and drive to work. If I didn't it would start overheating. I don't remember filling it again on the way back. Put up with that for weeks. I think I only got it fixed because the weather warmed up and it was no longer sufficient to cool it. Or maybe it was the same problem as the heating not working and after a few weeks of wearing multiple layers and getting absolutely frozen I finally got it fixed. They may have been two separate issues/occasions, this was around 2003.

Oops, yes 😳

There's a lemmy.world support community where they will be able to assign you as mod if you ask.

From what you've said there shouldn't be an issue with taking it over.

Works here. I can never get it to swipe type "Mastodon" though.

I got free electricity for quite a few hours on Sunday night and Monday morning due to this wind.

Apologies. This is a new series from the guy behind the Digitiser teletext gaming magazine. It's very much in the style of the magazine, and contains segments about retro games alongside other nonsense. If you know and liked Digitiser them you'll probably enjoy the humour in this.

Yeah, it's early days.

There's an open source Linux reimplementation called Notepad Next.

Yeah, it's a bit odd how it looks like it's broken, it was working for me randomly and then I worked out I needed to clear cookies.

It was upgraded - it is up but looks like it isn't if you were logged on previously. If you clear cookies it should work again.
