Here's a small program I've been working on, on and off, for the last few months. It reads files from Sega SF-7000 floppy disc images. I haven't gotten around to reading my own discs yet, so I've only tested it with images in a TOSEC collection. Feedback is welcome.

With big data as the brains, robots act as the eyes, ears, and fists of the technocracy. Ubiquitous 5G (and above) connectivity gives autonomous systems a massive advantage over human beings. It’s important to understand that there is more to these systems than meets the eye. There is an entire orchestra of coordinated systems and services that harmonize into incredibly powerful tools. These tools are only beginning to be weaponized against the public. https://libresolutions.network/articles/11-robots.html #TotT #Technocracy #Automation

Thanks to the latest updates, if you have an @owncast instance you can now connect it to the Fediverse! 🥳

The Fediverse support is switched off by default, but you can switch it on very easily. Once it's activated, people on Mastodon etc will be able to follow your OwnCast account and be notified when you're livestreaming.

To activate Fediverse support on your OwnCast instance, make sure you have the software updated to at least 0.0.11, then go to Configuration > Social. There are more details about it at owncast.online/docs/social

(OwnCast is a free open self-hostable alternative to Twitch, a livestreaming platform with a chat system built in. More info at owncast.online )

Last month a reporter for the New York Times tracked her husband using Apple AirTags, Tiles, and a GPS tracker. (With his permission...)
