When Jimmy Kimmel yesterday proposed to decide the hilarious and extremely dangerous US plans for Greenland over a badminton match between Greenland's prime minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen versus the US president "Fuckface von Clownstick" (not my idea, seen in Denmark -> https://mas.to/@SmudgeTheInsultCat/115897279075326362 - Provided to YouTube by CDBaby ;)
it made me think of Rollerball (1975).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rollerball_(1975_film)

Maybe a good time to watch this movie again. The idea is quite similar: In a future world war between countries is replaced by deadly sports games between company/city/country teams. The movie also mentions a world ruling supercomputer, whose memory is corrupt. AI?

@jrp That film upset me when I saw it in 1975.

Built a Photonotron by @noisio today. A small, light-controlled synthesizer. Takes an hour soldering, when you don't know it, maybe, but only 10-15 mins to build, when you do. More importantly this is an instant gratification project for people, who like to freely play. The synth has a lovely audio quality (via cable to a large boombox ;) - we haven't stopped playing this and performing with it (it applies to dancers, too!) for the whole day. Lovely, lovely, 200% recommendation,

A small DIY board on a table, the two light sensors controlling this mini synth extended on wires, standing above like deep ocean fish eyes.

Another album of Mathias Delplanque, this time as "Bidlo, album "Bilder" from 2000, released on Harmsonic, UK.

Brutally good sound, breakbeat-ish, but not in your usual Amen-break/hiphop way. Rarely music sounds so good today!

While the 1990s revival is in full swing (see
Hyu's "Inaudible Works 1994-2008" demonstrates with a lot of lightness, how it really was: People didn't use computers for pop music (mainly). And that was obviously way more fun, by human interaction alone. Here's an example:

@mirlo.space Is there fan accounts on Mirlo, who'd show up, when buying an album? Also, can i offer a discount to the ones, who'd buy a complete discography of an artist

Could someone please leak an API 7600 Input Strip service manual?
Thank you! @Professional, inspiring audio

@*_jayrope Equally valuable would be a detailed description on how to take this highly integrated unit apart AND put it back together again safely.
Two boards are closely interlocked via pins and sockets, that seems to be the main culprit, especially in regards to putting them back together again. I'll need to probably exchange some API opamps, and sadly there is no service for API in the whole of Europe it seems. Any hints appreciated! @Professional, inspiring audio

Note for #Textpattern CMS users: Textpattern version 4.9.0 has been released 3 years 10 months and 28 days after the last update (4.8.8).
Download: https://textpattern.com
Thank you very much to all the devs!

The new version brings the well-known stability, yet it is now compatible with PHP 8.5 & MySQL 8.4, and makes your life much easier running email from your domain by adding long-missed "support for SMTP for sending emails via third-party systems to improve deliverability. Industry-standard PHPMailer also available internally."

All details here: https://textpattern.com/weblog/textpattern-490-released-php-85-mysql-84-features-fixes-fine-tuning-and-much-more

I am running close to 60 custom-made websites on Textpattern, and am not expecting any major troubles updating.
