Woot officially approved to go to PASIG! 😎 🌄 🇲🇽

Great zine on Hilda Carpenter, one of the women lab technicians who wove the physical core memory for Project Whirlwind at MIT in the 1950's http://thesoftcircuiteer.net/projects/hilda-wove-all-those-wires/

Just found these same instructions in a reel to reel tape here. We need more cute cartoons in today's storage media landscape https://kartemquinarchive.blogspot.com/2013/07/proper-care-of-video-tapes.html

Anyone else find #WDPD2018 overwhelming? Like last year, I'm going to disengage and allot the next few weeks to get through all the blog posts ✌️

Catching up on some three month old news, it seems the Mass congress has gotten around to discussing forming a committee to study the issue of extending the right to repair to electronics (still stuck in the house). In other words, still years away 😑 https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/7xq4zz/massachusetts-senate-passes-resolution-to-do-in-depth-study-on-right-to-repair

Barenaked Ladies "One Week" but about a file and fixity checking

Interesting that youtube-dl still uses stream fragments for download even when there's a direct download link (at least for Vimeo). I guess the assumption of the tool is you'll always need to wrest the video from a closed platform

Something tells me this libguide hasn't been updated in a while https://digipres.club/media/fK7KUi-vJi32la2KXKE
