Still rocking a salvaged IBM X61 here! Got me through high school and it’s getting me through college. Makes an excellent no-distractions writing machine, sometimes I also use it as a second display for reference images when I’m doing art
Looks so cozy!
I have some more illustrations and previews for my novel on my website, but otherwise I’m still in the writing stage and not sure where to publish. I did recently set up a Mastodon account on mastodon.art though (there’s a link to it in my profile), so any updates on my projects will probably go there
YESSS THATS WHAT IM SAYIN
Absolutely splendid, this is going in my art reference folder
Proud owner of both an iPod classic and an iPod Shuffle! I use both on the daily in order to avoid being on my phone too much.
Children of Time?
Ah, brings back memories of the Heaven’s Stairway incident back in May 2021. Fun times
This artwork is gorgeous! All the bright colours make me feel nice and fuzzy. Not sure if making an animated movie for C&H is the best move though, IIRC Bill Watterson didn’t want it adapted
vintage sci-fi vibes. nice shot!
Damn that’s very poetic, instead of bringing the rover home we eventually brought home to it
I’m an art school student who writes creative fiction and messes around with old electronics, so I wouldn’t really say I have a technical background. Work-wise I’ve mostly just done art/editing commissions or taught at studios. I’m just kind of tired of mainstream social media so I’m taking refuge in the Fediverse, and I’m liking it a lot so far
Everything else you said is on-point, but I will not let you badmouth airships. Those things are cool as fuck and a lot of their bad rep comes from long-standing misconceptions (especially surrounding the Hindenburg disaster).
Just take a look at this page. It has a ton of useful info that you’ll likely find interesting, especially if you enjoy going down TVTropes rabbit holes.
Damn I literally just passed this street a few minutes ago, pretty jarring to see familiar places like this on the internet
Lovely shot! I really like the colour composition, the colour scheme also kind of reminds me of old film
“I want to get into amateur radio, I sure wish there was a video that intuitively explained the fundamental workings of frequency modulation and RF transmission”
Some guy in his basement in Bangladesh with a circuit board and a notepad:
MPD + Cantata
For the most part I just lump all my music into one playlist regardless of album or genre, but day to day I also use several different computers, and I find MPD to be the best for syncing configurations across all of them. Cantata also allows me to see album artwork and track information really easily and has good touchscreen support compared to terminal-based MPD clients.
