Removing Javascript 2: The revenge - 2023-06-30 00:00:00

Hello! I’m still alive. Just 2 years after our first edition of kicking out javascript here we are again, reducing the size and processing time of the website. Yes, it was pretty light but we can go FURTHER! Also we want this to be viewable by obsolete browsers, of course. New things are not always progress when we can simplify. The only javascript that I had at this moment was the highlight.

Kaku P-Model - 崇めよ、我はTV - 2022-03-18 10:18:34

Susumu Hirasawa appreciation post. Yet another electrical hit from Kaku P-Model. I really appreciate how the works alone by Susumu Hirasawa are completely different from Kaku P-Model, yet they share a lot of things. Like two sides of a coin.

Modifying a Sony Hitbit 10P to use a standard barrel jack power supply - 2022-03-13 07:37:39

Greetings everyone! A couple of weeks ago I got a Sony HitBit 10p from a mechanical keyboard enthusiast from the University, a great guy :). He know where to leave MSX things. There was a particular issue: There was no power supply. After changing one power supply for a Sony HB-T7 I thought that it would not be much of a problem. And actually it was not! I found a tutorial in spanish on how to do this with a phone charger.

How to config your Vortex Tracker for the MSX computers family - 2021-08-22 19:56:31

Hello my friends! This is a reminder for me and for the future generations to come. I’m not going to show you anything very magical or new, but this happen to me and I didn’t have clue about it. So if you didn’t know, now you will! Are you tired of compsing something in Vortex Tracker and hearing something odd when playing it in the machine? Your tracker might be wrongly configured!

Overloaded and unsatisfied when searching in Google - 2021-07-14 04:58:05

Welcome to the longest post to the date in this blog! Today we have something very random: Thoughts about searching in Google. At 5AM with Massive Attack! (Mezzanine is a great Album) Have you ever been in a position where you want to find a piece of daily life information like “How to be more spontaneous/escape routine” or “How to improve my sleep”? And boom! You get like a bazillion results.

Testing dithering and color reduction - 2021-06-18 17:36:52

Hello! I’m trying to convert images so that they are lighter. I got the idea from Low-Tech Magazine and got some help and information from a good guy. Using ImageMagick: convert input.jpg -set colorspace Gray -ordered-dither o8x8 -colors 2 output.gif From this image: We get this one: From 72KB to 16KB. Looks a lot like the gameboy camera actually. There are other dithering algorithms, but for this photo the ordered-dither gave the best picture.

Removing Javascript - 2021-06-15 19:39:47

Hello! Probably nobody cares, but I have removed the share section (twitter + facbeook) because it required to load 300kb for the icons plus random javascripts. We want this to be light. On the other hand I have removed the “last posts” from the index. This is because it needed to recompile ALL the posts everytime because this list is always updated. This way… only the last post needs to be compiled!

Pyspark and UDF types problem - 2020-11-02 12:20:05

Hello! Here is a fast note that might not be obvious. Beware with UDF types in PySpark. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 from pyspark.sql.functions import udf from pyspark.sql.types import IntegerType, FloatType def very_fun(idk): return(22) def floating_fun(idk): return(22.0) df = sqlContext.createDataFrame( [ (1, 'foo'), (2, 'bar'), ], ['id', 'txt'] ) funfun_int = udf(very_fun, IntegerType()) funfun_float = udf(very_fun, FloatType()) floatingfun_int = udf(floating_fun, IntegerType()) floatingfun_float = udf(floating_fun, FloatType()) df = df.

Osamu Sato - Transmigration - 2020-03-06 11:58:37

Lately I have been only posting music. We’ll, that’s what I like to do at the moment, so… ¯_(ツ)_/¯ This time I bring you Osamu Sato’s Transmigration. It’s a weird album mixing pseudo-futuristic sound with strange folk chants. I haven’t played through all the Osamu Sato’s Tong-Nou, a superb weird experience into his mind made into a game, however the first song is clearly the opening theme. I hope you enjoy.

Kiki Vivi Lily - 80denier - 2020-02-19 11:28:10

Lately this blog is only about music… 🤔 Today we have Kiki Vivi Lily. Yes the name is a bit weird, but her music is pretty good and full of a chill feeling. I hope you like it!

Denki Groove - ピエール瀧の体操42歳 - 2020-02-07 09:03:49

Today we have Denki Groove in the menu with their 42 year old Pierre gimnastics. Probably one of the most eccentric and well done videos that I have ever seen. Wait until the song gets dramatic :). Enjoy!
