i ran an eeepc 701, then 1000HA, for seven years put together until the motherboard on the 1000HA died. maxed out the ram, installed an SSD, and expanded battery.
ran xmonad with lxde parts, and tiny little pixel fonts in my terminal. mostly used terminal apps, and firefox with noscript, vimperator, and sub-100% scaling.
probably the most bespoke computing experience i've ever bothered to put together. my sticker game was incredible. the phrase "FREE WIFI" was a strong contender for knuckle tats.
>8FL (pronounced either "eight-eff-ell" or "eighth floor") is a livecoding musical instrument for the Renoise music tracker digital audio workstation. It works by opening up a Fennel REPL into a running Renoise application and providing a library of music-focused sequence operations that can control and populate the active song. It is intended for live performances but can be used for algorithmic composition in the studio as well.
