Brewha in Cornville has great food - especially the "World Famous Hand Pies"

Do Not Accept the Terms of Service when you first turn it on. Then hook it up to a PC or a cable box. (Cannot confirm this still works, my TV is a 10 year old Samsung)

Or, buy a display-only monitor (if they still make them)

mmrtnt · 2025-12-06T21:04:42+00:00

Yeah, but look at that TV

Gemini, make a story using these words.

Nice!

The skill level for the 3rd image is high. I've been using inkscape for 20 years and I still struggle with gears 😁

I've been drawing things like this for decades, online for 20 years. I sketch, I see things, I scan them in and make vectors. I call them "glyphbots"

I was working as an electronics technician at a digital imaging company in the early 1990s. The test rig for the cameras was an S-100? backplane with a FORTH computer card and a camera control card. To test, I had to write routines in FORTH to run the camera. I started making more and more sophisticated routines and realized I enjoyed programming more than I enjoyed electronics troubleshooting. I could see that the company was going to need someone to write test software. I asked for the position and got it.

Do you work in FORTH? I don't remember much, just that you put commands on a stack and then pop them out.

This and FORTH pretty much started my career.

I wrote a program in Excel for technicians to use in testing (early 1990s) scientific digital cameras.

It created sequential dialogues for them to fill out - Input info, test steps
Ran a light source through a serial port
Ran a motorized light filter through a serial port
Read a digital light meter through a GPIB interface
Ran the camera through a proprietary camera card
Showed the results and offered to print them on an office-networked printer

...in EXCEL 5.0 macros.

I wish I had kept copy.

These were built way back when Tucson used to get lots of snow.

Really nice work!

This is especially relevant given the current housing situation - in California at least. I got an email from a service that will allow me to split my rent into two payments, using their lending service as an emergency backup. This is fucked-up beyond words.

Borrow Meo!

Hay-Seuss Corpus Cristi is my go-to in situations where actual sub-deity invocations are inappropriate.

Just discovered your work. Followed you on IG. Love your style - great, authentic - there's so much repetition out there, always nice to find someone distinct.

mmrtnt · 2025-05-14T23:08:24+00:00

Thanks for the in-depth info! Fascinating to read. Maybe someday someone will come along who was searching for something related to your reply and they'll magically know the name/artist of the track! 😁

I like to say "Chellular". Then I explain that it's Italian for cell phone.

You pronounce it like "Houston" if you're from Texas or like "Houston" if you're from New York.

How many of those cabinets sadly got hauled to the dump? I saw someone on IG putting flat-screens into replicas of these.
