Way more lightweight than Flipper Zero (less chance of getting it confiscated at border controls as well) but also less powerful/flexible.

Hacking in Progress or HIP ’97 – corbosman on Twitter: “Just found this highly advanced drawing of the network setup at HIP97. The ??? probably meant we didn’t have the hardware for it yet.”

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/17

Such a cool historic artefact: [Wayback corbosman on Twitter: “Just found this highly advanced drawing of the network setup at HIP97. The ??? probably meant we didn’t have the hardware for it yet.”

It is a nice addition to the existing HIP97 information, of which some is at:

This is the diagram of the unique network [Wayback/Archive] corbosman on Twitter: “@bwgveer @Quux_NL The fact we were able to bring 6mbit into a field in the middle of no where in 1997 (the era of dialup) was quite a feat.”:

Een paar linkjes waar Jan Disselkoen genoemd wordt

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/16

Het is al bijna 20 jaar geleden dat Jan Disselkoen overleed, en doordat hij al in 1995 permanent werd uitgeschakeld is er vrijwel niets op internet over hem te vinden.

Toch jammer, want hij was naast een aimabele man ook een erg goede radiotechnicus bij de NPO en haar voorlopers.

In de studio de rust zelve, dat kun je op deze twee video’s zien (de eerste een fragment in zwart-wit, de laatste ruim 12 minuten in kleur waarop Jan rond 10:00 achter de mengtafel zichtbaar is tijdens de allereerste uitzending van Radio Veronica als Veronica Omroep Organisatie in het publieke bestel om 08:00 op 28 december 1975 tijdens de opening van Hilversum 4).

Some notes on running Postfix inside a docker container

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/14

The plan was to run a Postfix secondary MX inside a docker container.

Below are many links that might help me to get that going.

For now, I think this is the shortlist of solutions to try:

  • Docker Mailserver
  • Mailcow
  • Mailu

Best 404 page ever? : ProgrammerHumor

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/13

While doing some ASCII art blog-post drafts cleanup, I bumped into the (now deleted) [Wayback/Archive] Best 404 page ever? : r/ProgrammerHumor which pointed to the (also now deleted).

I got there via my (not deleted!) blog post Why I like PlantUML.

So I dug up the old archived copy of that PlantUML 404-page and made gist out of it.

I soon realised this was all encoded stuff, seemingly a mix of a ROT13 variation and some other shifting around.

Luckily the original page mentioned in the Reddit post was way easier, so I put that in a gist too.

Bot are below the blog-signature. Enjoy!

Oh, and the full text of course above the signature:
