@CommodoreLad @commodoreofcl Is that the Founder's Edition? Looking forward to seeing what you think of it

Oh my... Its here... #keepitcommodore #commodorerulez Thankyou @commodoreofcl Looking forward to getting it hooked up.... 😊

@CommodoreLad All you need to know about Linux... 😄

Did some Samba enabling on Linux today and learned how to do directory permissions command line style. It's a big step for a Windows softie.... 👍

I've seen many reports, but nothing like the new @IPCC_CH climate report, an atlas of human suffering & damning indictment of failed climate leadership. I know people everywhere are anxious & angry. I am, too. It's time to turn rage into #ClimateAction. ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg2/

Look what the UK government slipped under the table while we were distracted. There's a very good reason why neonicotinoid pesticides should never be used in agriculture. They are devastating to a wide range of life. theguardian.com/environment/20…

And the longer it goes on, the more precarious Putin's position will become domestically. A palace coup is going to become increasingly likely over time twitter.com/DAlperovitch/s…

A trans woman in Kyiv told me: “I am a woman, but I have ‘male’ in my passport and on all my ID, so this is a war within a war. Ukrainian trans people were already fighting for their lives.” “There are hundreds of us stuck like this. We need help."

I guess you slept through the Syrian one. Doctors were sending minute-by-minute updates from the basements of hospitals being bombed by Russia. Ordinary Syrians were doing pieces to camera published right here on this site

Tomorrow the IPCC will publish a report setting out the genuinely terrifying scale and reach of the climate impacts already underway and coming down the line. At the same time governments across Europe will continue to scramble to develop tactics that can assist Ukraine.

Hi all, @BenRobra let me know that he & colleagues (including @EevaHoutbeckers @timparrique @NickClimate @SabrinaChakori @Scott_Leatham ) have just launched a new free and open access Degrowth academic journal. How splendid! degrowthjournal.org

@bulletford @RMCRetro It's like the red sea parting for Moses. You're untouchable

@RMCRetro The graphic shows that the wind is specifically avoiding the cave, the red zone skirts around it.

Risk it or stay at home? 🤔

@Peters_Glen Climate change: An 'existential threat' to humanity, UN chief warns global summit news.un.org/en/story/2018/…

@Peters_Glen Perhaps this has something to do with it? news.un.org/en/story/2018/…

I did a poll on extinction. I was not sure what to expect, but I am sure I did not expect 30% of my followers think that our current path leads to extinction. My impression is that this would not be the consensus among 'mainstream' climate scientists (eg IPCC), so why 30% yes?

@StanChart @LFC Meanwhile Standard Charter is planning to fund the @Total oil pipeline in east Africa and completely destroy all our futures

PLEASE READ. NOTHING SURPASSES THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS: This is the draft Cop26 agreement: unfccc.int/sites/default/… It has actually taken my breath away. I was expecting something pretty dire. I’ve been warning for months that it would be pretty dire. But this! Even I am shocked.

@hqqns @MEGA65Retro The last few years I've been planning to buy one and run a BBS, but the final price tag was quite a shock... so that dream is on hold - probably permanently.

Id love to know how many on the twitter retro community have want, ordered, have or think it's a waste of money. See

@Angelgreatking @RMCRetro I remember asking myself the same thing back in the day

It's time to ditch the retro and get myself more up to date, with MMX technology #pcmr #retro #tech #computers

@bethsawin @giulio_mattioli @Klimaatzuster Specifically, NFTs will revolutionise property rights in favour of individuals - with early adoption in developing countries. Unlike Bitcoin, third-generation digital currencies are orders of magnitude more energy efficient than legacy financial systems.

@bethsawin @giulio_mattioli @Klimaatzuster NFT mania is stupid right now, but in the near future the same underlying technology will dramatically address inequality and climate. We're very close now. See the first couple of minutes of this TEDx talk. youtu.be/97ufCT6lQcY

@bradsprojects I was actually thinking of #digirule 3 (longside any other possible updates to the 2U in the future). A couple of 7 segment displays would be amazing for teaching binary and hexadecimal interactively. But they would have to be very low profile to not spoil the ruler.

@isedwards It's not something I've given much thought to, to be honest. Which version of the #digirule are you referring to - 1 or 2?

@bradsprojects are you likely to ever add a couple of low-profile 7-segment displays to the digirule?
