Researching for the @constant vitrine on #cilia. Trying to use as much as possible old electronics that were neatly stacked away in the microcontroller box. #permacomputing
(Permamicrocontrolling sounds a bit weird)
Here's a duemilanove with an Lcd, telling two times 16 character stories.
@osfa_2030 @tunubesecamirio @motorhueso @ana_valdi @manje simplemente soltar un concepto que creo que coincide con lo que estais diciendo #permacomputing la aplicacion de los principios de la permacultura al mundo de los ordenadores
An interesting online festival has just started right now for three days
FLEURON
a three-day online festival for all things at the overlap of #botany and #technology. Join us online from April 23–25 for the most inspiring creators working at the overlap of botany, design, illustration, and tech.
It's 33$, online, right now:
After the Code of Conduct and the Mediation process, the Core Governance document is now ready for wider feedback.
This document describes what JoinJabber does and what we aim to achieve. It also describes what our values are and a way to make proposals to the entire community.
Feel free to share and read/respond to the document.

Tän hetken iso kiinnostus: #permacomputing
Katselin huvikseen löytyykö Youtubesta videoita, niin Arte julkaissut sinne yhden, josta kanssa saatavilla saksaksi käännetty versio, tämä ranskaksi. Vaikken kieltä osaa enää juuri ollenkaan, niin tämän menon katsominen inspiroi vaan ihan törkeesti.
Uxn - Virtual Computer - Equipment - lines
So, let’s have a dedicated Uxn thread! Sound potato What? Uxn is a portable 8-bit virtual computer inspired by forth-machines, capable of running simple tools and games programmable in its own assembly language. In English: Imagine a workstation that is so simple that it can be implemented in an afternoon by a single person. Imagine that every tool/application is a only a few bytes. Software for Uxn are most similar to roms for the classic Nintendo, except that the console is designed es...
I haven’t read all of this gigamegahypersuperthread, but it is too amazing not to share.
These artists are making tiny ROMs that will probably outlive us all
I think a found a new favourite fantasy console computer thingy. I like PICO-8 and TIC-80 deeply, but there’s something in Unx’s minimalism that stands out.

The principles of permacomputing are:
* Care for life
* Care for the chips
* Keep it small
* Hope for the best, prepare for the worst
* Keep it flexible
* Build on solid ground
* Amplify awareness
* Expose everything
* Respond to changes
* Everything has a place
I was thinking of buying a new-to-me #Thinkpad next month, but I think what I'll do instead is try to spruce up my #PinebookPro:
I need to look up some videos on applying threadlocker to screws. It's much looser stuff than the typical locktite and it tends to make a mess.
I'm debating just dribbling locktite (regular CA) on top of the screws as well to try to make them a little more permanent. Not a great solution, but the thing just loves to fall apart.
It's always best to try to #reuse! <3
@doskel you're basically doing #permacomputing, you should be proud :3 /j

This is such a neat idea: a Belgian company is upcycling old smartphone motherboards (#Fairphone 2) into tiny embedded computers https://liliputing.com/this-pocket-sized-pc-is-made-from-an-old-smartphone-motherboard/ #upcycling #permacomputing

Hi @w0bb1t,
data needs molding / decay. Nature does, let's adopt. #permacomputing
Edit: Embrace & foster bit rot.
The Demo Festival had an unusual guest this year. Cynic philosopher Diogenes came around and looked at Motion Design with raised eyebrows.
I just posted a few new works to https://128kb.timrodenbroeker.de/
Just posted my first post ever on a forum 
: [discuss] permapublishing
https://bbs.permacomputing.net/thread/7/%5bdiscuss%5d-permapublishing-1/
The post is actually not really "mine", it emerged from a collective interest to think about #permacomputing in #FLOSS #publishing practices, which we discussed during the @prepostprint gathering in Paris today and yesterday.
![[discuss] permapublishing
We gathered in Paris over the last two days with peers from the PrePostPrint network where we revived the conversation around permapublishing that started last September in Strasbourg: what can it be?
First, we took an hour on Friday to explore what was discussed in Strasbourg and what we are thinking about when we use the word permapublishing. We talked about printing infrastructure, choosing your dependencies and layout software, and it was pretty clear that one hour was not enough to put our teeth deeper into this question. We gathered again today, to continue the conversation, which resulted in a lot of notes and an even stronger wish to continue this conversation. We decided to gather here on this brand new forum 📫 to continue this conversation.
So voila, here we are :).
We talked about splitting the conversation into multiple parts, but when thinking about it in the train home again it is starting to make less sense to do that already now. One proposal that we ended our conversation earlier today with is to look at different books and unpack their production process, as a way to explore the complexity of different layers in book making practices in which you often need to make compromises to make sure something is printed in the end. There are just so many parameters that play a role when making choices about how a book is made, from which software, which paper, which ink, which printer, which distribution system, etc!

With youtube appearing to join in the hate-speech-for-trans-people bandwagon https://www.usermag.co/p/youtube-removes-gender-identity-from , I'm thinking how we can make community video hosting easier. Peertube is great, but instances are much more limited, I assume due to file size.
What if there was an option for hosts to limit videos to 2bit, like the amazing #LowTechMagazine ? (image from them below) 50x reduced file size seems doable, hopefully would encourage a lot more hosts
