We are currently testing the use of Hugo with the Docsy theme for the distribution of manuals for our products.

Since we already use Hugo to generate our homepage and blog, it made sense to use a tool that we already know.

The biggest advantage of a static site generator like Hugo is that we don't have to worry about security problems in the web application.

❓ Which tools do you use - and why?

Hat jemand in der @reparatur Bubble dieses ?
Vom Hersteller selbst bekommt man keine Antwort.

Is it legitimate to write in a for a piece of equipment (that improper use of could lead to damage, injury or death):

If you find yourself asking 'should I be doing this?' the answer will always be 'No'.

?

Seriously I'm running out of ways to say:
don't sit on it, swing from it, stand under it, hold onto it, put your genitals in it, lick it, fart around it, taunt it, make it watch Hayao Miyazaki movies (although it would like them), or feed it pie after dark.

Melpomene,

@tezoatlipoca I'm a bit alarmed that boys are trying to fuck the deathtrap tbh.

Time to start digitizing a new retro manual. I haven't seen a good pdf version of the German SimLife manual yet, so this might be worth the effort. I will upload this to archive.org as soon as it's done.

Step 1: Plug it in.
Step 2: Pretend to know what you're doing.
Step 3: Call tech support.
Step 4: Wait 3-5 business days for a callback.

I stole this idea from @andycarolan but I have put together a personal user manual https://richonrails.me/manual/

@richonrails Awesome! That’s really nicely done.

I especially like the links to ADHD information, that’s very helpful!

Seems the #brother FTP server is dead... which took a LOT of old manuals with it. Not sure HOW long it's been gone, but it's certainly not on archive.org...

ftp://ftp.brother.ca/

Does anyone have archives or manual downloads from there?

Looking fruitlessly for this one in particular.

spaceflight,

@Dianora nice but the problem is the number (without "squall") : "astronauts 👨‍🚀 receive roughly 250 times 📈 more radiation than a person on Earth". Which means the equivalent of 62,5 years on Earth within 3 months.

@Luna@mastodon.world avatar

@spaceflight Yes like that and Apollo 11 changed it's landing location by 215 miles by flying with it's lift vector up vs down for a minute and a half.
This of course in theory they could steer left or right as well.

Another late night scanning session for an old game's manual... it's a slow process, but it's honestly quite relaxing. About 180 pages for this one. #SimAnt #Manual

@jake4480 You can download the SimAnt manual and many other stuff from my Archive.org library.

Digital Research’s Programmer’s Utilities Guide for CP/M as a cleanly typeset, searchable, and hyperlinked PDF.

https://maciaszek.net/26822/programmers-utilities-guide-recreation/

This is the 4th and (for now) final part of my modern recreations of CP/M manuals in InDesign. I need a break now.

Wintermute_BBS,

@martin thank you very much for your work, it's really appreciated!
