how to boot alpine linux on your mnt reform 2 with the rcore module:
- Install alpine in a chroot
- enable the main and community repos (libgpiod is in community)
- packages I installed in my chroot: sciops.net/downloads/rcore-wor…
- Add my repo to /etc/apk/repositories: sciops.net/downloads/alpine/ed…
- Add my pubkey to /etc/apk/keys: sciops.net/downloads/khm-6850e…
- apk add linux-rcore
- delete the /boot/extlinux directory
- put this file in /boot/boot.scr: sciops.net/downloads/rcore-boo…
- format an sdcard with two partitions: partition number one vfat, partition number two ext4
- copy /boot from the chroot to the sdcard's vfat partition
- copy everything else to the sdcard's ext4 partition
- insert the sd card and turn on the computer
- log in as root
- run rmmod dwmac_rk; gpioset -c 3 -t 100ms,100ms,0ms 23=1; modprobe dwmac_rk
- plug an ethernet cable in the computer if you don't have wifi
- install to nvme via setup-alpine
- check the resulting /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
- reference: sciops.net/downloads/rcore-ext…
- boot up / rock out
TODO:
- publish the APKBUILD and config for the kernel package
- try out some different kernel versions (lts and stable?)
- make a 'reformations' package that does gpioset on boot and contains some useful sway config
- fix bugs

addictive screen use isn't leading to mental health issues in the youth, it's a symptom.
society increasingly doesn't care, so kids are trying to compensate.
that doesn't mean that commercial social media isn't designed to be addictive. the truth is that kids not properly cared for will be addicted to _something_. it's just another thing to get addicted to, which is easily accessible and doesn't raise immediate suspicion.
if it wasn't media consumption, it would be booze, weed or something else.
Chinese scientists using gene editing technology have successfully developed a new type of anti-aging cells called senescence (seno)-resistant human mesenchymal progenitor cells (SRCs), which generate exosomes that act as messengers in transmitting "youthful signals" for cell rejuvenation. The study offers a new cell therapy approach for humans to combat age-related health decline.

For me, it’s honey from local beekeepers—supermarket brands locally are known to sell fake or adulterated sugar syrup as honey.

Los Angeles Stands up to ICE
"On June 3, a crowd drove federal agents out of Minneapolis following a raid on a taqueria. On June 4, people confronted US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents as they carried out raids in Chicago and Grand Rapids. On Friday, June 6, people in Los Angeles responded to an ICE raid, precipitating a full day of clashes that continue today. In the following firsthand report, participants describe how people came together to do their best to prevent federal agents from kidnapping people from their community."

“When they were kicked out of the hotel, everybody was excited,” he said. “It was a small victory, but our efforts made a difference. We need to be together to protect our community, to protect our workers." '

Jay Kuo offers several possible explanations for why the ostensibly war-shy Trump is toying with the idea of conflict with Iran:
1. Trump was never for peace to begin with.
2. His obsession with Fox News is a big driving factor behind his push toward open war with Iran.
3. Things aren’t going well for Trump at home, so he's employing a "Look over there!" strategy to divert attention.

Getting this artifact going was one of the more complex technology-related projects I've ever attempted, particularly since I knew virtually nothing about pianos to speak of before I started. It's a long saga that I won't trouble you with right now.
This media playback device is now a century old. I'm frequently asked about that big bellows on the left. That is actually a mechanism to keep the paper roll aligned across the playback bar as the paper tends to drift. Watch closely and you can see it making continuous adjustments. Small tabs on either side of the roll send signals to the bellows that then adjusts the playback position in real time. 100 years ago. Amazing tech. The device functions entirely by suction. It has no electronic components. I modified the device to operate from suction from a shop type vacuum cleaner, since using the pedals is ... tiring.
