Nice amen break-ish loop.

Here’s a house one. https://peel.fm/abe44a8

Reminds me of https://floppyswop.co.uk: "a place for sharing any files small enough to fit on a conventional floppy disc (1.44meg high density), art, media, sound, noise, its up to you, all files are hosted here for taking and swopping..".

I'm assuming that too. Just an observation. Very interesting work of you nonetheless!

Sure, although the positions of the items in the answer sets at cutoff = 10 differ as well.

Very nice!

It's also interesting that it differs from this search[1] performed in HN's own search system.

According to post #5 in this Lemon 64 thread[1], sound cards or TV amplifiers may invert signals from tape. I have actually just tried it when running recorded tapes in emulators but it has proved useful in cases when non-inverted tapes have failed to load.

A key method I've learned through various sources for ensuring good conversion from WAV to TAP is to invert the whole waveform in Audacity through Effects -> Invert before the actual conversion process.

I can also recommend the command line tool UberCassette for easy conversion: http://www.retroreview.com/iang/UberCassette/

A few tips: ”One day in the life of Ivan Denisovich” by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, ”Things fall apart” by Chinua Achebe, ”Wide Sargasso sea” by Jean Rhys, poetry by Anna Achmatova, ”My life in the bush of ghosts” by Amos Tutuola, ”A personal matter” by Kenzaburo Oe, ”Woman in the dunes” by Kobo Abe, ”The grass is singing" by Doris Lessing.

Well, can you say how they actually are invented today?

Please be aware of the distinction between public libraries (as is the general semantic implication when speaking of ”libraries”) serving the whole of the public; national libraries serving the whole of the public, creating systems for the retrieval of information and preserving the cultural memory of the world together with museums and archives; school libraries serving childrens’ and youths’ education; research libraries serving students, scientists, researchers and professionals in, for example, law, medicine, health sciences, industrial research on conducting research, referencing and preserving research data; hospital libraries serving the physically and mentally ill and disabled; and special libraries serving domain-based interests of for example artists, industry professionals and cultural institutions.

Also be aware of the fact that Library and Information Science as a scientific multidisciplinary field researches topics such as information theory, machine learning, cultural heritage, sociology, linguistics, comparative literature, knowledge organization, information retrieval, computer science, pedagogy, critical theory, didactics.

I also suggest a systematic literature study on the term ”information literacy”.

You can choose to set a custom PDF reader in the General tab of preferences --> Open PDF using --> custom [1].

Then you can annotate the file and save it. If Zotero creates a copy of the file when you save your annotations, you might need to use Show file by right clicking the article in Zotero and make changes to the file in Zotero's storage. In Linux, that'll be in ~/Zotero.

The metadata retrieval pairs with a DOI or ISBN [1]. Articles without such handles might not work, nor will articles which are not OCR'ed (obviously) but this can be easily fixed with OCR scanning software.

The metadata retrieval process is a very handy feature, especially paired with Zotero's web browser plugin.

Zotero also keeps a repository of all the citation styles, which are curated and administered by the Zotero team and stored in a Github repo [2].

Yes, but as the author of the article argues, the emoji icon of an eggplant has been culturally interpreted with a different semiotic meaning. The same could very well happen with the emoji icon of a watergun (despite the emoji’s semiotic shift), indicating a symbolic duplexity in the meaning of a handgun.

I.e., if you choose to mean a handgun when writing a watergun, the emoji’s meaning can change.

My impression is that the clear majority of the Nordic C64 users had a datasette and tapes.

These are all good points. National Libraries in several countries do however preserve software as a mean of digital culture preservation but the public as well as the private sector are generally unaware of this.

Nathan Altice makes great presentation slides. Here on board wargames history: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uQJ5rI8fWEzAV1orIznpVDkL9o6...

I can also recommend his game studies book on the NES, I am Error.
