so apparently sea slugs eat a lot of algae ...

... and some have figured out how to incorporate the algae's plastids into their own bodies ...

... so the sea slugs *photosynthesize*

they can live for months off the sun -- an animal acting like a plant

weird and awesome

close-up image of a bright green sea slug with ruffled, leaf-like edges, resembling a piece of underwater lettuce. Its surface is speckled with golden dots, and delicate frills ripple along its sides as it floats near strands of green algae. The creature’s translucent texture and vivid color give it an almost plant-like appearance.

Are you someone who's uncomfortable with homeless shelters or encampments near your home/work/kid's school/parent's longterm care home?

Here's the answer to ending homelessness that you've been looking for:
Universal Basic Income & Guaranteed Low Cost Housing

No one chooses to live on the street. And no, choosing the street over a worse option is not actually choosing the street.

UBI provides every person with the money they need to survive, and low cost housing puts them literally in a place where they can begin a new life.

Opposing UBI while complaining about homeless people is like opposing abortion and also opposing contraception. Both positions are like complaining about the snow in the house while refusing to shut the doors and windows.

(Yeah, I know that tooting this on Mastodon is preaching to the choir, but I had to vent.)

So Long, Firefox, Part One

It’s likely that Hackaday readers have among them a greater than average number of people who can name one special thing they did on September 23rd, 2002. On that day a new web browser was released, Phoenix version 0.1, and it was a lightweight browser-only derivative of the hugely bloated Mozilla suite. Renamed a few times to become Firefox, it rose to challenge the once-mighty Microsoft Internet Explorer, only to in turn be overtaken by Google’s Chrome.

Now in 2025 it’s a minority browser with an estimated market share just over 2%, and it’s safe to say that Mozilla’s take on AI and the use of advertising data has put them at odds with many of us who’ve kept the faith since that September day 23 years ago. Over the last few months I’ve been actively cha

So Long, Firefox, Part One

Just What Went Wrong?

Browser market share, 2009 to 2025. Statcounter, CC BY-SA 3.0.
It was perhaps inevitable that Firefox would lose market share when faced with a challenger from a player with the economic muscle of Google. Chrome is everywhere, it’s the default browser in Android and ChromeOS, and when stacked up against the Internet Explorer of fifteen years or so ago it’s not difficult to see why it made for an easy switch. Chrome is good, it’s fast and responsive, it’s friendly, and the majority of end users either don’t care or don’t know enough to care that it’s Google’s way in to your data. When it first appeared, they still had the “Don’t be evil” aura to them, even if perhaps behind the warm and fuzzy feeling it had already worn away in the company itself.

If Firefox were destined to become a minority player then it could still be a successful one; after all, 2% of the global browser market still represents a huge number of users whose referrals to search engines return a decent income. But the key to being a success in any business is to know your customers, and sitting in front of this particular screen it’s difficult to escape the conclusion that Mozilla have lost touch with theirs. To understand this it’s necessary for all of us to look in the mirror and think for a moment about who uses Firefox.

Somewhere, A Group Of Users Are Being Ignored

Blink, and its name will change: Phoenix version 0.1. Mozilla Foundation; Microsoft, Inc., CC BY-SA 4.0.
A quick straw poll in my hackerspace revealed a majority of Firefox users, while the same straw poll among another group of my non-hackerspace friends revealed none. The former used Firefox because of open-source vibes, while the latter used Edge or Safari because it came with their computer, or Chrome on their phone and on their desktop because of Google services. Hackaday is not a global polling organisation, but we think it’s likely that the same trend would reveal itself more widely. If you’re in the technology space you might use Firefox, but if you aren’t you may not even have heard of it in 2025. It’s difficult to see that changing any time soon, to imagine some killer feature that would make those Chrome, Safari, and Edge users care enough to switch to Firefox.

To service and retain this loyal userbase then, you might imagine that Mozilla would address their needs and concerns with what made Phoenix a great first version back in 2002. A lightweight and versatile standards-compliant and open-source web browser with acceptable privacy standards, and without any other non-browser features attached to it. Just a browser, only a browser, and above all, a fast browser.

Instead, Mozilla appear to be following a course calculated to alarm rather than retain these users. Making themselves an AI-focused organisation, neglecting their once-unbeatable developer network, and trying to sneak data gathering into their products. They appear now to think of themselves as a fad-driven Valley startup rather than the custodians of a valuable open-source package, and unsurprisingly this is concerning to those of us who know something about what a browser does behind the scenes.

Why Is This Important?

If you have ever had to write code like this, you will know. Bret Taylor, CC-BY 2.5.
It is likely that I am preaching to the choir here, but it’s important that there be a plurality of browsers in the world. And by that I mean not just a plurality of front-ends, but a plurality of browser engines. One of the reasons Phoenix appeared all those years ago was to challenge the dominance of Microsoft Internet Explorer, the tool by which the Redmond software company were trying to shape the online world to their tune. If you remember the browser wars of that era, you’ll have tales of incompatibilities seemingly baked in on purpose to break the chances of an open Web, and we were all poorer for it. Writing Javascript with a range of sections to deal with the quirks of different browser families is now largely a thing of the past, and for that you have the people who stuck with Firefox in the 2000s to thank.

The fear is that here in 2025 we are in an analogous situation to the early 2000s, with Google replacing Microsoft. Such is the dominance of Google Chrome and the WebKit-derived Blink engine which powers it, that in effect, Google have immense power to shape the Web just as Microsoft did back in the day. Do you trust them to live up to their now-retired mission statement and not be evil? We can’t say we do. Thus Firefox’s Gecko browser engine is of crucial importance, representing as it does the only any-way serious challenger to Blink and WebKit’s near-monopoly. That it is now tied to a Mozilla leadership treating it in so cavalier a manner does not bode well for the future of the Web.

So I’ve set out my stand here, that after twenty-three years, I’m ready to abandon Firefox. It’s not a decision that has been easy, because it’s important for all of us that there be a plurality of browsers, but such is the direction being taken by Mozilla that I am not anxious to sit idly by and constantly keep an eye out for new hidden privacy and AI features to turn off with obscure checkboxes. In the following piece I’ll take a look at my hunt for alternatives, and you may be surprised by the one I eventually picked.

Worth noting with Mastodon - one of the reasons for no cookie consent popup is.. there are no tracking cookies. At all.

Similar with official mobile apps, there's no privacy agreements etc in the app stores as there's no third party tracking.

Why is this notable? Try doing the same check on Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky or basically anywhere or anything else online. It's basically unheard of in 2025, as everybody else is selling you.

This is the "in memoriam" text about Vanessa Freudenberg from the Smalltalk Zoo homepage smalltalkzoo.computerhistory.o…

We are deeply saddened by the death of Vanessa Freudenberg, October 15, 2025.

For more than 10 years, Vanessa devoted herself to the design and perfection of SqueakJS, fixing reported bugs, adding features, and improving performance. She was committed to making every possible version of Smalltalk available on every possible personal computer. As a result, SqueakJS was awarded the Most Notable Paper award at the ACM’s Dynamic languages Symposium of 2024.

SqueakJS now supports every version of Squeak since its release in 1996, as well as
current versions of Pharo and Cuis, live examples in the Smalltalk Zoo and Dan Ingalls’s HOPL paper, a nearly complete revival of Squeak Croquet, early versions of Scratch, and Squeak eToys. Vanessa never stopped making SqueakJS better and faster. By the time her paper was awarded, SqueakJS ran about as fast as native Squeak at the time she started the project, and she had carried out nearly all the suggestions in her “Future Work” section.

Vanessa also did much of the hard work of bringing Smalltalk-78 to life.
This project culminated in a published paper and revivals of
Alan Borning’s ThingLab
Adele’s Simulation Kit
Dan’s demo of Smalltalk to Steve Jobs
Alan’s tribute to Ted Nelson

No one has done more to ensure the availability and preserve the history of Smalltalk.
Vanessa was an inspiration to the communities that she served.
May she rest in peace.

Rare Filament Makes Weird Benchies

Even the build plate has to be super hot. He also looks at filament that seems like iron, one that makes you think it is rubber, and a bunch of others.

As you might expect, he’s not using a conventional 3D printer. Although you might be able to get your more conventional printer to handle some of these, especially with some hacking. There is filament with carbon fiber, glass fiber, and more exotic add-ons.

Il Consiglio Supremo di Difesa Italiano discute sulla minacce ibride e digitali in Italia e Europa

Il Consiglio Supremo di Difesa, si è riunito recentemente al Quirinale sotto la guida del Presidente Sergio Mattarella, ha posto al centro della discussione l’evoluzione delle minacce ibride e digitali che investono l’Italia e l’Europa.

La guerra in Ucraina resta lo scenario da cui originano molte delle tensioni che ricadono anche sul dominio cyber, con Mosca che continua a utilizzare strumenti tecnologici e informativi come leve strategiche per destabilizzare i Paesi occidentali.

Il Consiglio Supremo di Difesa Italiano discute sulla minacce ibride e digitali in Italia e Europa

Una parte rilevante della riunione è stata dedicata all’impiego sempre più aggressivo dei droni da parte della Russia, non solo in Ucraina ma anche con violazioni dello spazio aereo di Paesi NATO. Sebbene si tratti di operazioni prettamente militari, il Consiglio ha sottolineato come tali tecniche riflettano un salto di qualità nell’integrazione tra mezzi fisici e digitali, confermando la necessità di potenziare le capacità europee di innovazione e difesa tecnologica, in linea con quanto previsto dal Libro Bianco per la Difesa 2030.

Il tema centrale sul fronte cyber è stato però l’aumento della minaccia ibrida. Il Consiglio ha riconosciuto che la Russia – insieme ad altri attori ostili – sta intensificando attività che spaziano dalla disinformazione alle interferenze nei processi democratici, sfruttando la velocità e l’ubiquità delle tecnologie digitali, oltre alle potenzialità dell’intelligenza artificiale per manipolare lo spazio cognitivo e costruire narrazioni polarizzanti.

Sempre più frequenti sono anche le operazioni cyber dirette contro infrastrutture critiche italiane ed europee. Ospedali, reti energetiche, sistemi finanziari e piattaforme logistiche rientrano tra gli obiettivi più vulnerabili.

L’obiettivo di questi attacchi è creare interruzioni, generare sfiducia nelle istituzioni e colpire la stabilità economica e sociale. Per questo, il Consiglio ha ribadito l’urgenza di rafforzare i meccanismi di difesa e coordinamento nazionale, in continuità con le iniziative già intraprese a livello UE e NATO.

Accanto alle minacce digitali, il Consiglio ha evidenziato come nuovi domini – lo spazio e il sottosuolo marino – stiano rapidamente diventando aree chiave di competizione strategica. La protezione dei cavi sottomarini, dei satelliti e delle infrastrutture spaziali è ormai parte integrante della sicurezza cyber nazionale, poiché un attacco in questi ambiti avrebbe ricadute dirette sulle comunicazioni digitali e sui servizi essenziali.

In chiusura, oltre ai rischi cyber e ibridi, il Consiglio ha espresso forte preoccupazione per le tensioni nei principali scenari di crisi globali – Ucraina, Medio Oriente, Libano, Sahel e Balcani – ricordando che ogni instabilità regionale si ripercuote anche sulla sicurezza informatica europea.

Il messaggio finale è stato chiaro: l’Italia deve continuare a investire nella resilienza digitale e nella cooperazione internazionale, mantenendo alta la vigilanza su tutte le dimensioni della sicurezza contemporanea.

Panel 1. A dark and mystical laboratory, with shelves lined with dusty jars of oddities and strange artifacts, a dark witch, dressed in tattered black robes, is tired, her desk scattered with parchment and strange devices. She looks frustrated and confused. On a perch near to the desk stands a colorful mechanical parrot that contrast with everything.
> Witch: Of course, we wanted crows, and the university gave us this...

Panel 2. Close-up on the parrot speaking cheerfully:
> Parrot: :sparkle emoji: Greetings. I am a conversational Avian Intelligence model, developed by OpenMagic to assist you with your spells.
> Parrot: What can I help with?

Panel 3. The witch's face looks at the mechanical bird with annoyance.
> Witch: "Shut up, you... thing."

Panel 4. The parrot continues. The witch now have her face against the desk.

A brief history of #Russia patriotism 2022-2025

Russian patriots and Z-propagandists on the payroll of Yulia Vityazeva and Armen Gasparyan drove Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Murza to suicide.
Then Russian patriot and Russian officer Colonel Puzik sent Russian patriots and Russian officers Ernest and Goodwin to be slaughtered and disposed of for exposing Russian patriots and Z-volunteers on the channel Katya Valya for stealing humanitarian aid collected by Russian patriots for other Russian patriots.
Then Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Vladimir Solovyov achieved recognition of Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Roman Alekhin as a foreign agent.
Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Sergei Zagatin (Iney channel) exposed Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Tatyana Montyan for stealing donations that Russian patriots had donated to Russian patriots, and Russian patriot and Z propagandist Tatyana Montyan were added to Rosfinmonitoring’s list of terrorists and extremists, and a criminal case was opened.
Russian patriot and z-propagandist Vladimir Soloviev, together with Russian patriots and z-propagandists from the TG channel ‘Okhranota v Vatniky’ accused Russian patriot and z-propagandist Grubnik of not being sufficiently patriotic and simultaneously attacked Russian hero and z-patriot Apti Aronich Alautdinov.
In response, Russian patriot and Hero of Russia Apti Alautdinov organised the detention by Centre E and a fine for discrediting the Russian army of Russian patriots and Z-propagandists from the Telegram channel ‘Okhranota v Vatniky’ (Security in Vatkini), and threatened the rest of the Russian patriots and Z-propagandists with mass arrests if the Russian patriots and Z-propagandists did not delete the incorrect posts from their Telegram channels and apologise. Russian patriot and Z-propagandist Ilya Remeslo understood the full weight of his guilt and went on video to apologise to Russian patriots and Z-propagandists Alautdinov, Grubnik and Aida.

I would personally add all the “patriots and heroes of Russia” who killed other “patriots and heroes of Russia” in Donbas, such as Alexander Bednov “Batman” or Igor Mangushev “Bereg”.

Mating Cycles: Engineering Connectors to Last

If you take a look around you, chances are pretty good that within a few seconds, your eyes will fall on some kind of electrical connector. In this day and age, it’s as likely as not to be a USB connector, given their ubiquity as the charger of choice for everything from phones to flashlights. But there are plenty of other connectors, from mains outlets in the wall to Ethernet connectors, and if you’re anything like us, you’ve got a bench full of DuPonts, banana plugs, BNCs, SMAs, and all the rest of the alphabet soup of connectors.

Mating Cycles: Engineering Connectors to Last

Given their propensity for failure and their general reputation as a necessary evil in electrical designs, it may seem controversial to say that all connectors are engineered to last. But it’s true; they’re engineered to last, but only for as long as necessary. Some are built for only a few cycles of mating, while others are built for the long haul. Either way, connectors are a great case study in engineering compromise, one that loops physics, chemistry, and materials science into the process.

A Tale of Two Connectors

While there’s a bewildering number of connectors available today, most have at least a few things in common. Generally, connectors consist of one or more electrically conductive elements held in position by an insulating body of some sort, one that can mechanically attach to another body containing more conductive elements. When the two connectors are attached, the conductive elements come into physical contact with each other, completing the circuit and providing a low-resistance path for current to flow. The bodies also have to be able to separate from each other when the connections need to be broken.
This Molex connector is only engineered for a few mating cycles over its useful life. By Barcex – Self-published work, CC BY-SA 2.5.
For as simple as that sounds, a lot of engineering goes into making connectors that are suitable for the job at hand. The intended use of a connector dictates a lot about how it’s designed, and in terms of connector durability, looking at the extremes can be instructive. On one end of the scale, we might have something like a Molex connector on a wiring harness in a dishwasher. Under ideal circumstances, a connector like that only needs to be used once, in the factory during assembly. If the future owner of the appliance is unlucky, that connector might go through one or two more mating cycles if the machine needs to be serviced at some point. Either way, the connector is only going to be subjected to low single-digit mating cycles, and should be designed accordingly
A USB-C connector, on the other hand, is designed for 10,000 mating cycles. By Tomato86 – Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0.
On the other end of the mating-cycle spectrum would be something like the USB-C connector on a cell phone. Assuming the user will charge the phone once a day, the connector might have to endure many thousands of mating cycles over the useful life of the phone. Such a connector has a completely different use case from a connector like that Molex, and very different design constraints. But the basic job — bringing two conductors into close contact to complete a low-resistance circuit, and allow the circuits to be broken only under the right circumstances — is the same for both.

But what exactly do we mean by “close contact”? It might seem obvious — conductors in each half of the connector have to touch each other. But keeping those conductors in contact is the real trick, especially in challenging environments such as under the hood of a car or inside a CNC machine, where vibration, dust, and liquid intrusion can all come together to force those contacts apart and break the circuit while it’s still in use.

esseeWhy Be Normal?

To keep contacts together, engineers rely on one of the simplest mechanisms of all: springs. In most connectors, the contacts themselves are the sprung elements, although there are connectors where force is applied to the contacts with separate springs. In either case, the force generated by the spring pushes the contacts together firmly enough to ensure that they stay connected. This is the normal force, called so because the force is exerted perpendicular to the plane of contact when the connector is mated.

Traditionally, normal force in connector engineering is expressed in grams, which seems like an affront to the SI system, where force is expressed in Newtons. But fear not — “grams” does not refer to the mass of a contact, but rather is shorthand for “gram-force,” the force applied by one gram of mass in a one g gravitational field. So, an “80 gram” contact is really exerting 0.784 N of normal force. But that’s a bit clunky, especially when most connectors have normal forces that are a fraction of a Newton. So it ends up being easier to refer to the grams part of the equation and just assume the acceleration component.

The amount of normal force exerted by the contacts is a critical factor in connector design, and has to be properly scaled for the job. If the force is too low, it may increase the resistance of the circuit or even result in intermittent open circuits. If the force is too high, the connector could be difficult to mate and unmate, or the contacts could wear out from excess friction.

Since the contacts themselves are usually the springs as well as the conductors, getting the normal force right, as well as ensuring the contacts are highly conductive, is largely an exercise in materials science. While pure copper is an excellent conductor, it is not elastic enough to provide the proper normal force. So, most connectors use one of two related copper alloys for their contacts: phosphor bronze, or beryllium copper. Both are excellent electrical and thermal conductors, and both are strong and springy, but there are significant differences between the two that make them suitable for different types of connectors.

As the name implies, phosphor bronze is an alloy of phosphorus and bronze, which itself is an alloy of copper and tin. To make phosphor bronze, about 0.03% phosphorus is added to pure molten copper. Any oxygen dissolved in the copper reacts with the phosphorus, making phosphorus pentoxide (P₂O₅), which can be easily removed during refining. About 2% tin is added along with about 10% zinc and 2% iron to make the final alloy, which is easily cast into sheets or coil stock.

While far superior to pure copper or non-phosphor bronze for use in contacts, phosphor bronze is, at best, a compromise material. It’s good enough in almost all categories — strength, elasticity, conductivity, wear resistance — but not really great in any of them. It’s the “Jack of all trades, master of none” of the electrical contact world, which, coupled with its easy workability and low cost, makes it the metal of choice for the contacts in commodity connectors. If a manufacturer is making a million copies of a connector, especially ones that are cheap enough that nobody will cry too much if they have to be replaced, chances are good that they’ll choose phosphor bronze. It’s also the alloy most likely to be used for connectors intended for low mating-cycle applications, like the aforementioned dishwasher Molex.

For more mission-critical contacts, a different alloy is generally called for: beryllium copper. Also known as spring copper, beryllium copper contains up to about 3% beryllium, but for electrical uses, it’s usually around 0.7% with a little cobalt and nickel added in. Beryllium copper is everything that phosphor bronze is, and more. It’s stronger and springier, it’s a far better electrical conductor, and it also has a better ability to withstand creep under load. Also known as stress relaxation, creep under load is the tendency for a spring to lose its strength over time, which reduces its normal force. Phosphor bronze has pretty good stress relaxation resistance, but when it heats up past around 125°C, it starts to lose spring force — not ideal for high-power applications. Beryllium copper is easily able to withstand 150°C or more, making it a better choice for power connectors.

Beryllium copper also has a higher elastic modulus than phosphor bronze, which makes it easier to create small contacts that still have enough normal force to maintain good contact. Smaller is better when it comes to modern high-density connectors, so you’ll often see beryllium copper used in fine-pitch connectors. It also has better fatigue life and tends to maintain normal force over repeated mating cycles, making it desirable for connectors that specify cycle lives in the thousands. But just because it’s desirable doesn’t make it a shoo-in — beryllium copper is at least three times more expensive than phosphor bronze. That means it’s usually reserved for connectors that can justify the added expense.

Noble Is Only Skin Deep

No matter what the base metal is for connector contacts, chances are good that the finished contact will have some sort of plated finish. Plating is important because it protects the base metal from oxidation, as well as increasing the wear resistance of contacts and improving their electrical conductivity. Plating metals fall into two broad categories: noble (principally gold, with silver used sometimes for high-power connectors, as well as palladium, but only very rarely) and non-noble platings.

Noble metal finishes are quite common in high-density connectors, RF applications, and high-speed digital circuits, as well as high-reliability applications and connectors that are expected to have high mating cycles. But at the risk of stating the obvious, gold is expensive, so it’s used only on connectors that really need it. And even then, it’s very rare that the entire contact is plated. While that would be incredibly expensive — gold is currently pushing $4,000 an ounce — the real reason is that gold isn’t particularly solderable. So generally, selective plating is used to deposit gold only on the mating surfaces of contacts, with the tail of the contact plated in a non-noble metal to improve solderability.

youtube.com/embed/AtwVm_3YrwI?…

Among the non-noble finishes, tin and tin alloys are the first choice. Aside from its excellent solderability, tin alloys do a great job at protecting the base metal from corrosion. However, the tin plating itself begins to oxidize almost immediately after it’s applied. This would seem to be a problem, but it’s easily addressed by using more spring force in the contacts to break through the oxide layer to fresh tin. Tin-plated contacts typically specify normal forces of 100 grams or more, while noble metal contacts can get by with 30 grams or less. Also, tin contacts require much thicker plating than noble metal finishes. Tin is generally specified for commodity connectors and anywhere the number of mating cycles is likely to be low.

Don’t You Fret

Although corrosion is obviously something to be avoided, the real enemy when it comes to connector durability is metal-on-metal contact. The spring pressure between contacts unavoidably digs into the plating, and while that’s actually desirable in tin-plated contacts, too much of a good thing is bad. Digging past the plating into the base metal marks the end of the road for many connectors, as the base metal’s relatively lower conductivity increases the resistance of the connection, potentially leading to intermittent connections and even overheating. Again, noble metals perform better in this regard, at least in the long run, as their lower normal force reduces friction and results in a longer-lived contact.

There’s another metallurgical phenomenon that can wreak havoc on connectors: fretting. Fretting is caused by tiny movements of the contacts against each other, on the order of 10^-7 meters, generally in response to low-g vibrations but also as a result of thermal expansion and contraction. Fretting damage occurs when the force of micromotions between contacts exceeds the normal force exerted between them. This leads to one contact sliding over the other by a tiny amount, digging a trench through the plating metal. In tin-plated contacts, this exposes fresh tin, which oxidizes instantly, forming an insulating surface. Further micromotions expose more fresh tin, which leads to more oxides. Eventually the connection fails due to high resistance. Fretting is insidious because it happens even without a lot of mating cycles; all it takes is a little vibration and some time. And those are the enemies of all connectors.

Tanti auguri Windows! 40 anni di storia dei sistemi operativi e non sentirli

Esattamente 40 anni fa, il 20 novembre 1985, Microsoft rilasciò Windows 1.0, la prima versione di Windows, che tentò di trasformare l’allora personal computer da una macchina con una monotona riga di comando in un sistema con finestre, icone e controllo tramite mouse.

Tanti auguri Windows! 40 anni di storia dei sistemi operativi e non sentirli

Si tratta della messa a terra di alcune delle più grandi innovazioni del nostro tempo, ideata dal genio di Duglas Engelbart e dell’“oN-Line System”, il sistema progettato negli anni sessanta che introduceva un sistema operativo a finestre connesso ad un mouse, presentati nella storica “mother of all demos” del 9 dicembre del 1968.
Schermata di caricamento di Windows 1.0
Per il pubblico di oggi, questo sembra scontato (o sconosciuto) ma a metà degli anni ’80, l’idea stessa di un’interfaccia grafica sul PC IBM di massa era praticamente rivoluzionaria.

Tecnicamente, Windows 1.0 non era un sistema operativo completo. Era una sovrapposizione grafica su MS-DOS , una shell a 16 bit chiamata MS-DOS Executive che si sovrapponeva al sistema esistente e consentiva l’esecuzione di programmi in modalità finestra.

La prima versione fu rilasciata solo negli Stati Uniti; aggiornamenti ed edizioni internazionali seguirono in seguito, e il pacchetto costava circa 99 dollari, una cifra considerevole all’epoca.
Desktop di Windows 1.0, dove si possono vedere le finestre non modificabili nella loro dimensione
L’interfaccia appariva insolita persino per gli standard degli anni ’80. In Windows 1.0, le finestre non potevano essere sovrapposte liberamente: erano rigorosamente affiancate sullo schermo. L’utente controllava il sistema principalmente con il mouse, selezionando le voci di menu e trascinando gli elementi, sebbene i menu stessi funzionassero in modo strano e richiedessero di tenere premuto il pulsante del mouse.

Ma anche allora, Microsoft stava già definendo i principi che in seguito si sarebbero evoluti nel modello desktop che conosciamo.

Windows 1.0 includeva una suite di applicazioni sorprendentemente riconoscibili ancora oggi. Agli utenti venivano offerti Paintbrush, l’antenato dell’odierno Paint, Blocco note, l’editor di testo Write, Calcolatrice, un orologio, un terminale, il database di schede Cardfile, gli appunti e un gestore di stampa. Queste applicazioni consentivano agli utenti di prendere semplici appunti, disegnare semplici grafici, stampare documenti ed eseguire più programmi contemporaneamente, sebbene con un multitasking molto limitato.

I requisiti hardware al momento del rilascio erano considerati piuttosto elevati. Per eseguire Windows 1.0 era necessario un processore Intel 8086 o 8088, almeno 256 kilobyte di RAM, una scheda grafica e due unità floppy disk a doppia faccia o un disco rigido. Molti recensori si sono lamentati del notevole rallentamento del sistema durante l’esecuzione di più applicazioni, soprattutto se il computer disponeva di una memoria inferiore ai 512 kilobyte consigliati. In confronto, l’attuale minimo di 4 gigabyte per Windows 11 sembra quasi un balzo in avanti.

Windows 1.0 ricevette un’accoglienza tiepida dal mercato. I critici ne notarono l’interfaccia lenta, la scarsa compatibilità con i programmi DOS esistenti e il numero limitato di applicazioni scritte specificamente per Windows. Rispetto ai sistemi grafici Apple già disponibili, il prodotto Microsoft appariva rudimentale e alcuni recensori paragonarono le sue prestazioni su un PC con 512 kilobyte di RAM a “melassa versata nell’Artico”, alludendo alla sua incredibile lentezza.
Desktop di Windows 2.0
Tuttavia, Microsoft non abbandonò l’idea. Nel giro di un paio d’anni, l’azienda rilasciò diversi aggiornamenti di Windows 1.x con supporto per nuovo hardware e layout di tastiera europei, per poi introdurre Windows 2.0 e il particolarmente riuscito Windows 3.0.

Queste versioni, da sole, resero l’interfaccia grafica dei PC IBM uno standard di fatto del settore e gettarono le basi per il vasto ecosistema software a cui ci siamo abituati negli anni ’90.
Desktop di Windows 3.0
Oggi, Windows 1.0 è ormai da tempo diventato un reperto da museo: emulatori del sistema vengono lanciati per nostalgia e curiosità, e la stessa Microsoft occasionalmente ricorda la sua prima interfaccia grafica attraverso Easter egg e progetti a tema, come la divertente app per Windows 1.11 basata sulla serie TV Stranger Things.

Ma molte idee e persino alcuni programmi di quell’epoca sono sopravvissuti fino a oggi, e il 40° anniversario ci ricorda quanto rapidamente siano cambiati sia i computer che la nostra comprensione di cosa dovrebbe essere un’interfaccia intuitiva in una sola generazione .

After the recent Rubygems drama, I felt anxious, and trapped, frustrated that I can’t escape evil people trying to dominate my life.

I found myself grieving, and mourning the future I grew up thinking we would have; but also feeling hope, that it’s not too late to stop enabling these people, and start choosing kindness.

I wrote about these feelings. Join me in building a better future:

Congratulazioni a @ufficiozero Linux per la nuova versione Anna uscita oggi: assolutamente da provare se volete riportare in vita un vecchio laptop!

Sono un felicissimo utilizzatore della versione Lorena, l’unico #Linux che è riuscito a resuscitare il mio glorioso MacBook Pro 2008.
Avevo provato praticamente tutte le distro ma tra le due vecchie GPU Nvidia e il Wi-Fi nessuna riusciva a funzionare davvero bene. Lorena invece ha salvato il laptop dalla discarica! 🥳

@DigiDavidex Hehe, però il mio MacBook è proprio messo male: la batteria è defunta, funziona solo attaccato alla corrente e l’alimentatore originale è rotto (uso quello del MacBook Air 😅).
In più i tasti stanno iniziando a saltare e le ventole grattano… insomma, un rottame.
Ma io non butto mai un laptop: ho ancora in casa gli EeePC a 32 bit del 2007!
Il vero pericolo, semmai, è la mia compagna che ogni tanto sente il bisogno esistenziale di “fare pulizia” 😅

Giunge a conclusione l'indagine in Liguria per reati ambientali e traffico internazionale di rifiuti

I #carabinieri del nucleo #Forestale di Borghetto Vara (La Spezia) dopo la segnalazione all'autorità giudiziaria di 27 persone per dieci diverse tipologie di reati ambientali legati al traffico illecito di rifiuti destinati anche alla Nigeria ((leggi qui poliversity.it/@Coop_internazi…), hanno eseguito su richiesta della Procura la perquisizione dell'abitazione di uno degli indagati e di due aree nei Comuni di Sarzana e Castelnuovo Magra utilizzate per la demolizione illecita di veicoli, lo stoccaggio dei relativi componenti e il deposito di altri rifiuti.

Giunge a conclusione l'indagine in Liguria per reati ambientali e traffico internazionale di rifiuti

Sono stati posti sotto sequestro circa 60 autovetture fuori uso, quattro autocarri e rifiuti depositati in modo incontrollato. L'esecuzione dei provvedimenti di perquisizione e sequestro aveva già permesso di acquisire elementi che avevano confermato la gestione illecita dei rifiuti con la corresponsabilità di alcuni cittadini residenti in Nigeria, nazione di destinazione dei rifiuti.

La Dda (Direzione Distrettuale Antimafia) di Genova ha assunto la direzione delle indagini relativamente all'ipotesi di reato principale di attività organizzate per il traffico illecito di rifiuti e ha richiesto cinque misure cautelari nei confronti di altrettante persone, quattro cittadini stranieri e uno italiano. Il gip (Giudice delle Indagini Preliminari) ha accolto la richiesta ed emesso le misure cautelari.

I carabinieri hanno eseguito l'analisi dei dispositivi mobili posti sotto sequestro nel mese di febbraio scorso, che ha svelato un illecito sistema di fatturazione operato tra giugno 2020 sino ad almeno il marzo 2023 e per questo sono state denunciate 11 persone in concorso per dichiarazione fraudolenta mediante l'emissione di fatture per operazioni inesistenti inesistenti e e segnalate potenziali attività dità di riciclaggio.

Nei giorni scorsi è stato stato emesso e notificato dai carabinieri l'avviso di conclusione delle indagini preliminari nei confronti dei quattordici indagati per attività organizzate per il traffico illecito di rifiuti di cui cinque già destinatari di misure cautelari. All'indagato cardine del procedimento sono attribuiti 27 capi di imputazione tra i quali attività organizzata per il traffico illecito, la gestione illecita di rifiuti, la combustione illecita di rifiuti e l'attività di demolizione non autorizzata.

On 16-17 November #Poland has reopened border crossings with #Belarus, closed previously in October to prevent provocations during #Russia “Zapad-2025” military exercises.

The reopening was declared as a “trial” only, clearly signalling the border may be closed at any moment if provocations repeat.

As if magically, from the day preceding the reopening the border, the number of “asylum seekers” storming the border of Poland from Belarus suddenly dropped to… zero, and remains such to date.

As a reminder, Belarus does not share border with Syria, Iraq or any African countries, so its role was never of genuine migration path but blatant human trafficking business. Belarus recruited its customers in Middle East countries. They paid up to $6000 for “tourist visa”, one way air tickets to Minsk, and then were trained and equipped by KGB to force th

As expected Ukrainian President Zelenskyy didn’t even consider the Russian-Trump „proposal“, refusing to even talk to Witkoff.
