Senior remote online wellfare check for browser history. Bluefin, Tailscale. SSH in, brew install sqlite, then run the following assuming your parent is running Chrome:

cp ~/.var/app/com.google.Chrome/config/google-chrome/Default/History /tmp/chrome_history

sqlite3 /tmp/chrome_history "SELECT datetime(last_visit_time/1000000-11644473600, 'unixepoch', 'localtime') AS 'Time', url FROM urls ORDER BY last_visit_time DESC LIMIT 20;"

Just ran a spool speed check, looks right to me:

[spool] progress=0.544 w_src/TOP=4.72 w_tk/BOTTOM=4.40 -> TOP faster
[spool] progress=0.544 w_src/TOP=4.72 w_tk/BOTTOM=4.40 -> TOP faster

then it evolves over time, idea is to be as close to accurate as possible:

[spool] progress=0.607 w_src/TOP=5.00 w_tk/BOTTOM=4.21 -> TOP faster
[spool] progress=0.607 w_src/TOP=5.00 w_tk/BOTTOM=4.21 -> TOP faster

If my research is right, the accurate cassette physics should be accurate.

Good eye. In this case, yes, different branded players had different layouts. The one this mimicks from the early 90s had this as a layout design. Most players, the tape would be reversed - think at the time it was the "ultra low profile head" or whatever it was. Good eye.

In the future, once I release it, I'm going to dive into skins. But, because buttons are interactive, it is a bit of grid mapping and making sure the visuals hold when the device buttons are used.

I wanted a music player that was both ridiculous and "felt" like a proper Walkman (Player view)...with accurately moving spools, working buttons at the top of the Walkman that control the functions (ff/rewind, toggle fn to change it to <>) Yes, your keyboard media keys controls work.

I am aiming to be as pure to a cassette deck as I can get it. That means no playlists, no cloud, local music and manual selections from the Music Rack like the rock gods intended. 🤘🎧

So as you may recall, I recently got into my bird bath. Calm down, not literally, rather as a bird watcher. Well, once of the biggest frustrations was trying to keep up with the videos I was capturing.

In my free time, I have been tinkering with a little something that I think might help give me the "what's happening" element I was looking for with the birds that was looking for. I lazily call it Birdwatch.

Today, I met with Colorado Senator Matt Ball, co-author of Colorado OS Age Attestation Bill SB26-051.

Sen. Ball suggested excluding open source software from the bill. This appears to be a real possibility.

Amendments are expected for the CA age attestation bill. It's my hope we can move fast enough to influence excluding open source in the CA bill amendments.

No illusions, it's an uphill battle, but we have an open door to advocate for the open source community.

Fair and good to know 🙂

Easier but less glamorous play is to park in a "hot food desert" based on hours of operation and location. Target those in a "I'm hungry" mindset when nothing is open and you're the only game in town with a simple offering. 😊

Also considering opening a food truck again, getting licensing sorted and parking outside of the local factories and refineries during the winter. Bread, chili and soup screams sales (did back in the 90s).

I'm exploring a couple of offline paths for some extra retirement earnings. 😁

Sharp eye, good catch. Determining if I want a moonlight project to test the waters to ease into retirement later or, leave it all until retirement.

Likely happening, I'll ease into it depending on how things play out in life in the next few months. Still sorting this out. Likely just going to poke around and gauge the market surface.

Our local grocery stores and restaurants do seek this stuff out.

I'm not retiring anytime too soon. Folks depend on me at work.

Exactly! Yeah, I need to be busy.

Planning for my retirement in 10+ years. Offline still looks to be a solid play.

Microgreens. HUGE local market gap here. Folks here prefer local, unlike mushrooms and other products grown locally, microgreens is the gap here. We're an agricultural county and folks here have money, expect and pay for local greens.

Just thinking ahead. Could change, but it's something I'm seriously considering as even a moonlight business now. 🤔

I still have some of those old laptops from that era in storage because in my brain I keep thinking you know I might need this someday for some random lightweight distribution of Linux, but that's me being weird.

And no, sadly, I have none of the old batteries for those laptops because that's just an accident waiting to happen leaving those in storage.

Yes, I completely agree with you, that's awesome.

Last week we set a mini goal to reach $2,000 on our campaign by today. Since then, we're only raised $100 ($50 of which shows up on GoFundMe, and another $50 that came in the mail). Let's do better folks. The first $1K we raised paid our writers for February. This next $1K gets them paid for March.
