I wrote a short script that downloads YouTube videos from channels I like so I can watch them wherever I want, whenever I want, and with whatever media player I want.

Is #Mastodon really all that decentralised? I'm not so sure after looking at the numbers...

#100DaysToOffload

Last blitter record on Atari STE : 23 sprites of 32x32, 4 bitplanes. At the same 320x200 resolution and with help from the CPU, the Amiga blitter can display 24 sprites.

When pushing the display area to 320x256 (with overscan on STE),the STE should stay at 23, while the Amiga slows down to 22.

However in any case the Amiga can also add two 32x32 hardware sprites.

This was achieved by optimizing the blitter calls and masking on STE.

pixelfed.social has resolved the issues with federation, it has been re-enabled.

Again, sorry for the outage folks!

In "Array languages for Clojurians," Dave Liepmann looks at APL and its descendants - reimplementing details along the way. The historical context enriches the read and puts the concepts within reach of mere mortals such as myself. http://appliedscience.studio/articles/array-programming-for-clojurists.html #clojure #lisp #apl

Thanks to @uniq for the nudge to write this! 😊👍

I didn't see that: exxos created an alt motherboard for Atari STF. You need to put all original chipsets from an Atari STF and it's 100% compatible, but with many extensions.

The picture shows the H4 revision with an alternative HDMI shifter on it.

Like the later STF revisions, you can also populate a blitter on it (yes, a lot of STF motherboards had socket connections for the blitter's IC).
