I made a cover of Jogeir Liljedahl's Guitar Slinger in
the form of a stop-motion music video where the cuts are controlled by the
pattern data of the original MOD.

The LinuxCNC project is making headway these days. A lot of patches and issues have seen activity on the project github pages recently. A few weeks ago there was a developer gathering over at the Tormach headquarter in Wisconsin, and now we are planning a new gathering in Norway. If you wonder what LinuxCNC is, lets quote Wikipedia:
"LinuxCNC is a software system for numerical control of machines such as milling machines, lathes, plasma cutters, routers, cutting machines, robots and hexapods. It can control up to 9 axes or joints of a CNC machine using G-code (RS-274NGC) as input. It has several GUIs suited to specific kinds of usage (touch screen, interactive development)."
The Norwegian developer gathering take place the weekend June 16th to 18th this year, and is open for everyone interested in contributing to LinuxCNC. Up to date information about the gathering can be found in the developer mailing list thread where the gathering was announced. Thanks to the good people at Debian, Redpill-Linpro and NUUG Foundation, we have enough sponsor funds to pay for food, and shelter for the people traveling from afar to join us. If you would like to join the gathering, get in touch.
As usual, if you use Bitcoin and want to show your support of my activities, please send Bitcoin donations to my address 15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b.

Apollo 17: The Crescent Earth
Our fair planet
sports a curved, sunlit crescent
against the black backdrop of space in this stunning photograph.
From the unfamiliar perspective,
the Earth is small
and, like a
telescopic image of a distant planet,
the entire horizon is completely within the field of view.
Enjoyed by
crews on board
the International Space Station,
only much closer views of the planet are possible from low Earth orbit.
Orbiting the planet once every 90 minutes, a spectacle of clouds, oceans,
and continents
scrolls beneath them
with the partial arc of the planet's edge in the distance.
But this digitally restored image
presents a view so far
only achieved by 24 humans,
Apollo astronauts
who traveled to the Moon and back again between 1968 and 1972.
The original photograph,
AS17-152-23420,
was taken by the homeward bound crew of
Apollo 17, on December 17, 1972.
For now it is the last picture of Earth from this
planetary perspective taken by human hands.
Turns out that from the moon, any lights on the earth's dark side are totally washed out by the limb of the earth, or (in the case of a solar eclipse) almost certainly washed out by the glow through the atmosphere.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Earlier this week, Microsoft released a patch to fix a Secure Boot bypass bug used by the BlackLotus bootkit we reported on in March. The original vulnerability, CVE-2022-21894, was patched in January, but the new patch for CVE-2023-24932 addresses another actively exploited workaround for systems running Windows 10 and 11 and Windows Server versions going back to Windows Server 2008. The BlackLotus bootkit is the first-known real-world malware that can bypass Secure Boot protections, allowing for the execution of malicious code before your PC begins loading Windows and its many security protections. Secure Boot has been enabled by default for over a decade on most Windows PCs sold by companies like Dell, Lenovo, HP, Acer, and others. PCs running Windows 11 must have it enabled to meet the software's system requirements.
Microsoft says that the vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker with either physical access to a system or administrator rights on a system. It can affect physical PCs and virtual machines with Secure Boot enabled. We highlight the new fix partly because, unlike many high-priority Windows fixes, the update will be disabled by default for at least a few months after it's installed and partly because it will eventually render current Windows boot media unbootable. The fix requires changes to the Windows boot manager that can't be reversed once they've been enabled. Additionally, once the fixes have been enabled, your PC will no longer be able to boot from older bootable media that doesn't include the fixes. On the lengthy list of affected media: Windows install media like DVDs and USB drives created from Microsoft's ISO files; custom Windows install images maintained by IT departments; full system backups; network boot drives including those used by IT departments to troubleshoot machines and deploy new Windows images; stripped-down boot drives that use Windows PE; and the recovery media sold with OEM PCs.
Not wanting to suddenly render any users' systems unbootable, Microsoft will be rolling the update out in phases over the next few months. The initial version of the patch requires substantial user intervention to enable -- you first need to install May's security updates, then use a five-step process to manually apply and verify a pair of "revocation files" that update your system's hidden EFI boot partition and your registry. These will make it so that older, vulnerable versions of the bootloader will no longer be trusted by PCs. A second update will follow in July that won't enable the patch by default but will make it easier to enable. A third update in "first quarter 2024" will enable the fix by default and render older boot media unbootable on all patched Windows PCs. Microsoft says it is "looking for opportunities to accelerate this schedule," though it's unclear what that would entail.

microsoft finally has a real good pretense to make everything older than win11 simply .. not boot anymore. ever.
