thank you for your service 🫡
An advertisement for the QBone Dual. The card is displayed with a glass of champagne and a single red rose. The headline reads: "A new year. A new DEC romance." Callouts point to: Eight user-addressable status LEDs, 10/100 Ethernet RJ45, Custom designed handled, Two Qwiic/StemmaQT interfaces, Redesigned construction to DEC specs for reliability and easier installation, and Two warm-swappable Q-Bus driver modules. The copy reads: At DECromancer, we love DEC as much as you do. Our redesigned QBone Dual adds not just memory, hard drive, and floppy disk emulation to your Q-Bus based PDP-11 or VAX; it's got future-proof peripherals like USB and Qwiic I2C expansion -- and soon, Ethernet. QBone Dual is ready to order, so start a new DEC romance in 2025. A footnote reads: With new software downloadable later this year. Circle no. 69 on reader service card. The bottom shows the company logo and website, decromancer.ca.
Our new QBone Dual is now in stock and ready for shipping!

In light of incoming tariffs, we've moved heaven and earth to early-ship out all outstanding orders, including our new QBone Dual product. For everyone else: we're hoping this situation ends as quickly as it starts, if not sooner.
Entirely solveable with proper construction and ventilation... which of course condo builders aren't doing, either. You'd think we would have learned something from 2020.

Can you smell this picture?
Our store is back online! We will re-start shipments later this week.

Yeah, I'm not going to be following any news or celebrity accounts here. I made a single exception, for a local reporter on Toronto city issues, but I also follow him over @ Mastodon. Seems he simulposts to both places.
OK, there, turned off reposts and quote posts. Now we'll see if anyone has anything original to say here, at all.
Still not feeling at home here. TL is too political, overwhelmingly so. Can't figure out how to suppress all re-posts, either.
Maybe, but generally speaking I haven't felt at home here. I also don't enjoy the web experience (not really into 3rd party apps). I'll keep trying, though.
Weird. I go to follow friends, and the follows aren't sticking. (Page reload shows they're not followed).
I go to block people I don't want to interact with, and reload... block is gone. No clue what's wrong.
I'll try again another day. ciao for now!
I'm blocking any followers I don't immediately recognize. Going for a different experience on this platform. Apologies in advance if you get blocked - contact me by another means if you know me and I'll happily unblock.
still feeling out of place here, but, a couple of resources that helped: docs.google.com/document/d/1... and github.com/JefTek/Blues...
i still really want this though: github.com/JefTek/Blues...
i still have an account here. do i have friends here i should be following? hm.
hello!
