Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/26
Need one day when archiving old floppies: [WayBack] GitHub – bbbradsmith/flompy: DOS floppy disk dumper
Via: [WayBack] Brad Smith on Twitter: “So I wrote a floppy disk dumper program for DOS. I dunno if this is really a very useful thing, but it’s open-source at least! 💾⚡🖥 “
Full thread at [WayBack] Thread by @bbbradsmith: “Hrm… why doesn’t the floppy controller status register have its non-DMA bit set, even though I’ve used a specify command to set it… and […]”:

Since they are likely to perform an FTR/EFTR procedure to remove a ~2.5cm sized polyp growing inside the colon on top of the LAR (Lower Anterior Resection) surgical suture line, below are some links, partially in Dutch, partly in English.

Since they are related to my LAR-syndrome symptoms:

Jubiläums BahnCard 25: 25 % Rabatt auf die Flexpreise und Sparpreise der Deutschen Bahn innerhalb Deutschlands
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/22
About a week still left if you plan to travel in/through Germany by train:
[Wayback/Archive] Jubiläums BahnCard 25: 25 % Rabatt auf die Flexpreise und Sparpreise der Deutschen Bahn innerhalb Deutschlands
Note that after a year, it will be extended into a full-price card (at about double the price) which is still a great way to get price reduction on German Rail.
Caveat: be prepared for rail delays.
If you want to cancel the card, use this link (or the one below it which goes to the cancellation form):
- [Wayback/Archive] BahnCard verwalten und kündigen
- [Wayback/Archive] …L01_S01_D001_KIN0014_kuendigenformular_LZ01…
Discounts also apply to already cheap tickets that you can book at [Wayback/Archive] Günstige Bahntickets ab 12,90 Euro deutschlandweit.

Jeff Geerling on Twitter: “I plug computers into my computers…”
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/20
Hopefully the picture below is the board of a PCIe KVM board based on a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE).
At least it seems to looking at the thread started by [Wayback/Archive] Jeff Geerling on Twitter: “I plug computers into my computers… “:
- [Wayback/Archive] eComet on Twitter: “@geerlingguy It will work as KVM or remote console for main computer?”
- [Wayback/Archive] Crenn on Twitter: “@geerlingguy We’re getting close to my wish!”
- [Wayback/Archive] Crenn on Twitter: “Random concept I thought of while debugging my server today. Have a PCI-E 1x card hosting an FPGA to create a basic graphics card implementation outputting to CSI (aka PiKVM) going to a @Raspberry_Pi 4 compute module; creating a self contained IPMI solution for headless servers.”
It would also very much match the below issue that Jeff raised:

- [Archive.is] Ethan Mollick on Twitter: “The Internet is rotting. This chart shows the percentage of links from all New York Times articles that still work. Over 25% of the links embedded in articles just seven years ago & 60% of older links, are now broken. And tweets & posts are more ephemeral! … “
- [Wayback] What the ephemerality of the Web means for your hyperlinks – Columbia Journalism Review
Hyperlinks are a powerful tool for journalists and their readers. Diving deep into the context of an article is just a click away. But hyperlinks are a double-edged sword; for all of the internet’s boundlessness, what’s found on the Web can also be modified, moved, or entirely vanished. The fragility of the Web poses an […]
It’s all about Link_rot, which is the main reason I have been posting [Wayback] (and when these do not archive, [Archive.is]) archival links in my blog posts since about 2015.
Sometimes I find time to add these to older posts as well, but given there are 7000+ blog posts published, I won’t be able to do that for all past blog posts.

Google Duo as a simple alternative for the deprecated Google Hangouts video calls?
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/18
Now that Google Hangouts on a PC keeps nagging that it will be replaced with Google Chat, and the main use case for my mentally retarded brother is video calls from behind his PC, I am going to investigate if Google Duo is any better (he loses mobile phones, which means no WhatsApp; Google Meet is to difficult for his mental abilities).
Some links to get me started:
- [Wayback/Archive.is] Google Duo now has a Progressive Web App (PWA) for easier use. It is also end-to-end encrypted, meaning it is much more secure and safe than Zoom. : Android

- [Wayback/Archive] Joel Haasnoot on Twitter: “@jpluimers @CaseyNewton @Google Bad new BTW :( Got an email that Duo is also quitting and moving to Google Meet (which is probably a better place for it). It doesn’t have an easy call interface currently though”
- [Wayback/Archive] Joel Haasnoot on Twitter: “@jpluimers @CaseyNewton @Google Heb je Duo al geprobeerd?”
- [Wayback/Archive] Joel Haasnoot on Twitter: “@jpluimers @CaseyNewton @Google Ja –
