Our mission, broadly speaking, is to give hands-on access to functional, obsolete technologies to anyone who visits. To do that, we have to keep those obsolete technologies functional. And when I say we, I often mean me but I always mean the community of collaborators and knowledge holders that the MAL has become. I have managed the day-to-day operations in the MAL to ever-greater degree over the past 9 and a half years, and often find myself in charge of either doing or coordinating repairs on everything from typewriters to 40 year old desktop computers to game consoles. But the lab constitutes a network of connections, both near and far, both more and less involved. I can and do call on all of that generously given information and time constantly. npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…wdzu oh all sorts of things. sewing, small sculptural work. video editing. drawing. i have no set medium. npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…wdzu never actually the same twice. but always some variation of: occupy the narrative part of my brain with a roughly familiar show or movie. unfocus on everything else. move hands without thought. npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose 1.

calls and a google form because so many people we worked with who were requesting food had some form of tech insecurity, but could usually at least get to a library to fill out the form or call a case worker or someone and have the form filled out for them. but people doing the pickups and deliveries had more tech stability for sure npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a

amazon account i had just not been using... or to try and do so. i used the "close account" link to get an email with a different account closure confirmation link. that account closure confirmation link sent me to a page that said the action could not be completed, and to try again later. i tried again basically hourly all day, and then finally emailed customer support to directly request account closure. I received a 500 word email in return detailing all of the things (none of which i have or use) i would lose access to by closing my account, and then requesting that i reply to the email if i still wish to close the account. I replied to the email, and instead of closing the account i received a second identical email signed off by a different customer service rep. i replied to that email as well, and have now received a third identical email from a third customer service rep. we shall see if they ever permit me to fully close the account! npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose the accidental poetics of the Beaufort Wind Scale: 0 Sea like a mirror. Smoke rises vertically 1 Ripples with appearance of scales are formed, without foam crests. Direction shown by smoke drift but not by wind vanes 2 Small wavelets still short but more pronounced; crests have a glassy appearance but do not break. Wind felt on face; leaves rustle; wind vane moved by wind. 3 Large wavelets; crests begin to break; foam of glassy appearance; perhaps scattered white horses. Leaves and small twigs in constant motion; light flags extended. 4 Small waves becoming longer; fairly frequent white horses. Raises dust and loose paper; small branches moved. 5 Moderate waves taking a more pronounced long form; many white horses are formed; chance of some spray. Small trees in leaf begin to sway; crested wavelets form on inland waters. npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…wfsd's Other Networks book is up for pre-order and to say i am Invested in the project is an understatement. also it is gonna be beautiful just as an object. https://shop.mexicansummer.com/merch/495898-lori-emerson-other-networks-a-radical-technology-sourcebook npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…20qw yeah, our campus station is amazing but otherwise agreed. the head engineer from the campus station was in the room when i was trying to tune it in so i was sad to not be able to pick it up for him npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…20qw it definitely needs the pots cleaned. it's picking up FM ok but AM is a no go even though other radios in the room are getting the campus AM station. and the antenna is just real loose. sadly no external antenna jack, just a headphone jack npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…20qw i need to open it up and poke some things, it gets kinda cranky & i think the connection from antenna to board might be cracked... but it sure looks good npub142tta679pe260cywyp2cju6xalpl6rxm8lddukzz66qxe8v2th9sjxj27s a libi rose @nprofile…20qw nope, 4-band!
