#Librewolf update, now has a transitional background color on private windows.
If anyone knows how to change that, please let me know.
I tried setting custom colors but it does not work. Couldn't find anything obvious in about:config either.
Why is it a big deal? Because I have letter-boxing turned on and now I have bright purple lower-left corner and darker upper-right when browsing...it's irritating and distracting.
I need to find a different mastodon server for my teaching account. The one I'm using is not just pushing "AI" but has now removed the requirement to label "AI" content as "AI", giving it level-footing with actual authors.
Any good suggestions for Instructional-based servers?

I'm getting very annoyed and yet very sad...I'm having a difficult time seeing the font on my phone. Not sure I can go any bigger.
Netflix now raising price to $19.99. Must be due to "higher oil prices".
🖕
Full disclosure...I'm getting very tired of everything I run into having obstacles. I know it's a "feature" of retrocomputing, but with 2 jobs and house work...I don't get a lot of time.
Does it stay or does it go? I'm don't think I have any plans to burn CD/DVDs, so do I keep these or donate them?
The pages are not removable. The skinny one holds 64 disks (16pages, 4 disks each) and the big one holds 120 disks (15 pages, 8 disks each).
{messed up, pixelfed link incoming...}
Reading Time's article about #BASIC and saw this. Anyone else see something wrong?
Just found these gems in the bottom of a box of old papers...sad. They look kinked. What's more is they have write-protect tabs on them so they have data...no clue what though - I have nothing that can read 8" floppies.
Wow! Pretty but hard to see the keys with the lights. Nice feature is you can turn off the LEDs for the keys and keep the case so it's not a bad thing.
Plus, with a name like C64Whiz, I better freak'n know where the keys are without looking! 😂
Ok, I've had it. It's been almost 3 weeks since I've gotten my #Commodore #C64U. I'm opening it up and trying it out...want to make sure it works.
Sh*t! Worse than I thought. I couldn't see where all the tabs were to remove key panel!!
Yep, Internet search is dead. You know those tubes which transport messages in bottles? Was trying to find out the proper name. So I did a search... 😒
Ok, I know I spelled vacuum wrong, but seriously...what the hell people?!?!
Ugh. Scrolling through my timeline I had to do a double take to make sure I was looking at the home timeline, and not the federated one. It's that bad. 😣
So a while back I was playing with my #Commodore #Ultimate #C64 and wanted to use Speedscript 3.2. The problem I had was the program loaded off drive 8 and looked for data files also on drive 8...drive 8 was all hard coded.
So I dove into the "MENU" program, written in BASICv2, and changed it to load Speedscript 3.2 off drive 9. This allowed me to insert the Speedscript disk in drive 9, load the program, and then have my data disk in drive 8.
The disk I have contains the programs shown. I have not tested the other programs to see if they will work as expected (off drive 8, w/data on 8).
Anyone interested in a "Drive 9 Loadable" Speedscript rather than swapping disks? I'm not sure it's worth putting on Codeberg. Maybe Neocities or Proton Drive?
Addendum comments:
1) My phone camera sucks, yes.
2) Are there such things as "home book scanners"? I'd love to scan the KLH User Manual and put it up to IA, but I only have a mobile scanner (scans 1 paper at a time). I had to take apart the Timex Sinclair manual to scan it. I have the "machine" to put it back together...somewhere. I'm waiting to find it. ...but I digress.
Or perhaps are there book scanning services at copy centers? Anyone have any ideas? I'd like to keep the manual and not ship it off somewhere.
Edit: after a quick search online, book scanners are out of my price range. Oh well, maybe I just try with a better camera.
I'm so regretting ever getting rid of my KLH 386SX. I can't even find a picture online. I have the manual, it's a model 215 but nothing good has turned up. C64whiz...you dork.
I did remember I still have the user manual (pic1). Unfortunately it only has non-photo images, and the monitor you see in (pic2) is not the monitor I had (at least I don't believe so). Pics 3 and 4 are the front and back, both taken from the user manual.
Damn it!! Just made a multi-paragraph post on the phone, went to verify a fact in the browser, then did a "Close All Apps" to easily switch back to Tusky (Android Mastodon app) by just opening it again.
But guess what "Close All Apps" did? 😤
I just saw someone trying to get "AI" to control VICE emulator over the network.
Please stop. I really don't want to see "AI slop" in #RetroComputing.
FFS...artificial idiocy is £ucking everything up...a cancer that's spreading and won't stop until its host is dead.
