I love these things. If you want to see them in action on video, check out clabretro on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@clabretro (e.g., https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRO_M1S145M).
Okay, I'm intrigued. Are the custom built RFID cards physical manifestations of albums which you can use to select and play a given album hosted with Navidrome? I'd love to see your setup/some examples.
I feel Richard W. Hamming fits this definition. You can find recorded lectures on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1zDuOPkMSw) or books such as 'The Art of Doing Science and Engineering'.
Interesting to see this here, as I came to the thread with the intent to re-recommend QBASIC. I started around a similar age with QBASIC via 'QBASIC Programming For Dummies'. I was crushed when my dad's work laptop was upgraded and QBASIC was no longer bundled in (Windows 2000?).
In my case, I had to take a picture that showed all of my name (on a piece of paper), the model number on the back, and the power cord having been cut. I submitted this and maybe a month later I got a check in the mail. I didn't buy the unit; it was already in my house when I moved in.
I noticed a dehumidifier in the basement of the house I moved into. I did a search for the model number - looking for a manual - and found out it was recalled. Same thing - fire risk.
It's really unfortunate because I had a home inspection done after I moved in and part of that is I get an email every month about anything in the home being recalled and that wasn't part of it. Good thing I happened to search for that manual that day. I was able to get a partial refund on the thing, though, so that's good (it was quite old). It seemed to have been in a "fan" mode, not running as a dehumidifier (water tank was empty).
And for some reason some tech journalists don't account for it. "Ah, but this Thinkpad has an MSRP of $4,395, so it's much more expensive than the competition" when approximately nobody would purchase it for that price, and the consistently-on-sale price would be right in line with competitors.
> In 2023, Wizards of the Coast hired Pinkerton to seize products from the March of the Machine: The Aftermath card set for the trading card game Magic: The Gathering from a YouTuber who had received them in an order from a local game store[38]. The YouTuber published a video showing their contents on YouTube ahead of the release. The Pinkertons used intimidation and threats of detention, arrest, fines and jail to force compliance with their goal[38]. According to Wizards of the Coast, this was after several attempts had been made to contact the individual in private, with no response. [39]
I did not expect to see something like this in the article. What in the world?
- Java 8 in Action / Modern Java in Action (Raoul-Gabriel Urma, Alan Mycroft, Mario Fusco; 2014 and 2018 respectively)
- The Well-Grounded Java Developer (Martijn Verburg, Benjamin Evans, Jason Clark; 2022) - not specifically focused on new features but does cover them in the context of going deeper into Java and the JVM.
I agree. A great start would even be to do something like what iSH does, where you have buttons for tab, control, escape, and a similar joystick for the arrow keys. As of now, I can't issue a tab in the shell, for example.
