Driving past the protesters on the sidewalk next to the main protest area. I was confused at one point by a few people yelling "Fuck you," no idea what their issue was but it's a free country?
Fortunately this thing is built like a Tank! A very small piece of plastic cracked off the top, which I fixed and isn't visible, no other problems. What a cool retro 15" 4:3 screen, it's really crisp and 75Hz too! 👍

The #NoKings protests today throughout the US, with insane numbers of spirited, brave and fed-up protesters, is in such an extreme and unbelievable contrast with the uncritical and cowardly tech-billionaires applauding like fan-boys from the front row seats during the inauguration. canada.masto.host/@Byrnejmf/11…
I've not posted much this week, honestly I've had a bad one, mentally not great at the moment and feeling really low, but hey things will get better. Back 25 years ago this was my Friday evening: Beige box, CRT, MPEG2 decoder card, DVD-ROM and a👌movie Have a great weekend peeps
I get woken up early on a Saturday morning by a courier, excitedly I answer the door and take delivery. Open the package and instead of a small CRT TV the seller has accidentally sent me a typewriter. FFS 😂 Well, that was worth waiting a week for! 😞

#Ostmoderne – nicht nur gebaut, sondern auch geträumt
Die Ausstellung "Pläne und Träume – Gezeichnet in der DDR" (Tchoban Foundation, Berlin) zeigt, was nie gebaut wurde – und gerade darin liegt die Kraft:
Rund 140 Entwürfe, oft fern der Norm, entziehen sich dem technisierten Baualltag der DDR.
Sie sind visuelle Fluchten, stille Kritiken – und zugleich Gegenbilder zu den bekannten Betonrealitäten im Plattenbau.
Was hier zu sehen ist, ist Ostmoderne jenseits des politischen Auftrags: zart, utopisch, persönlich. Architektur als gezeichneter Widerspruch.
TCHOBAN VOSS Architekten sind zusammen mit thomas betonbauteile und GROHE Partner der Ausstellung „Pläne und Träume. Gezeichnet in der DDR“, die am 23.05.2025 im Museum für Architekturzeichnung in Berlin eröffnet wird.
So between me and two friends that’s three #NoKings protests; me at the less-than-local, friend 1 at the local one, friend 2 at one in the UK (called a “No Tyrants” protest because they HAVE a king lol; maybe should still be a No Kings event? Just saying?).
When Windows 11 was first released, many long-time users felt features they loved had been taken away overnight. Three and a half years later, the same complaints still rise to the top of the Feedback Hub with tens of thousands of votes.
Seeing SO. MANY. #NoKings clusters, almost one at every corner. I’m literally tearing up like the La Marseilles scene in Casablanca. #SicSemperTyrannus
