Since people are asking about the Netware thing

I know you don't like "AI" in general but GPTs are the future! I pushed the mystic.txt and display_codes.txt to it and fine-tuned the "AI mission". Now it's super helpful for finding right codes and overall inspiration for you BBS!

In my humid climate, I find that a brush on primer is important. Really digging acrylic gesso as an option. It just goes on so pretty. #minipainting

I took some time to work out the exact #formatting that #Elasticsearch demands. If you think this might be useful, go ahead and boost. If you find any errors or would like to suggest additions, please also post a reply!

Hopefully this can help prevent a lot of frustration and trouble people might encounter and give them a better Mastodon experience!

I love these old art books of classic sci-fi/fantasy art.
And I recognised the image on this book by artist Peter Jones as it was used by Psygnosis on the box art of the Amiga game Blood Money I used to play a lot with my buddy before school back in the early 90s (he lived next door to the school so we were rarely late).

A Bone giant from One Page Rules Mummified Undead. At 10cm tall, this fella had a lot of large flat areas, that I've tried to fill with different textures. Painted in oils over a dark brown primer.

These days the #FreeBSD-derived #Darwin powering #Apple's operating systems has about the same installed base as #Windows. Adding the de facto Unix #Linux and derivatives like #Android easily eclipses Microsoft's efforts several times over.

“A publisher told me that his (successful) business operated on the rule of thumb that 80% of books were not read by the purchaser - they were either gifts or found their way onto glass tables or dusty bookshelves

…That's why we like to say a record collection defines who you are, and a book collection defines who you really want to be.”
