Not that I know of. Why do you ask?

I rescued an HP-200A audio oscillator from the basement of a relative who’d passed away, thinking it looked interesting. Anyone know if it has any value? I’m guessing it’s nothing too special with a serial number of 30211.

Doesn’t Snow Leopard have printer sharing? i.e. you can skip the generate PDF and copy steps, assuming both machines are on your LAN

You may be interested to hear that community developers [1] have updated Myth II to be run on modern systems (even native Apple Silicon!) with a variety of enhancements to the game client itself and other goodies like hi-res map textures.

There's also a community metaserver to replace bungie.net. [2]

markneub··on Show HN: NestDrop – realtime VJ engine using Milkdrop
Cool stuff! I did some experiments with pre-rendering Milkdrop visuals for high-res uploading to YouTube which might be of interest to you. Not practical for realtime (I guess this is where OBS comes in), but pre-rendering is great for quality. Example video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyhisYKU2Dg

Some notes on the process: https://www.markneuburger.com/prerendering-music-visualizati...

Led to a side project called pasteur, a tool for baking visualizations into MP4 videos for sharing: https://www.pasteur.cc/

Front end development in React/Vue, full stack development, and UI/UX design.

I’ve spent the last few months contracting with Lorem Technologies (asklorem.com) to build their marketplace startup in React, allowing them to keep momentum and not need to rush technical hiring. I’m based in NYC and am flexible with working arrangements from remote to full time onsite. If you're interested in working together, let me know and I’d love to chat.

markneub··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2017)
This sounds way cool! Is there a physical HQ to work from in Seattle, or do Seattle employees all work from home/find their own workspaces?
markneub··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2017)
So excited to see this here! I'm a long time Glowforge admirer. Just dropped you a line (same username as HN).
markneub··on Little Snitch 3 – Protect your privacy
Has anyone figured out how to stop Google's autoupdate process (ksfetch) from tripping LS nonstop? It spawns multiple new temporary processes when checking for updates, and LS requires a path to a specific process file to block it. This has made LS unusable for me since uninstalling all Google products isn't an option for me.

redditq - http://redditq.com/

Currently requires a physical keyboard to operate. Keyboard commands listed at https://github.com/markneub/redditq#navigation

redditq is an image browser for reddit. It features a minimal user interface and is designed to be controlled via keyboard shortcuts. This project was inspired by redditp[1], but I wanted to add support for image galleries and Flickr photo pages and experiment with a minimal UI. From a technical standpoint, I wanted practice using CommonJS modules for structuring my JavaScript, as well as using webpack for bundling static assets (including JS modules).

markneub··on Show HN: myfaves.fm – A flat-ui music player built with Meteor
Cool and works well -- one comment: while the spacebar functions properly as play/pause, in the legend at the bottom left it's perpetually showing the "pause" icon where I'd expect it to update based on whether you're playing or paused.

markneub··on Hardest captcha ever?
This CAPTCHA is actually designed to ensure that the only entity that can decipher it is Satan himself.

Wow.

markneub··on Microsoft made their own IE6-countdown site.
Hopefully the notion of developing for IE6 compatibility will soon be as laughable as that of designing for Netscape compatibility.
markneub··on Continuous Deployment
So what do you do when you want to make a change that isn't a logical evolution of your existing codebase? Say, for example, you have an ecommerce site, and you're switching payment processors to use one with an entirely different API. Surely you can't just push a change like this straight to your production server.
