- I admit, English is not my first language but when I look at the colour on the filament site and in the articles. The "platinum" looks beige/creamish. When I think platinum, I think silver/grey/pewter. Maybe platinum is the grade and not the colour?
Can someone with obvious good taste help me understand this ?

- These documentation repositories are always welcome. As time goes by we lose more and more, especially items from the gold and silver ages that were mostly on paper that are tossed as luminaries age out of the system.
- Is there an easy way to mirror it?
- I suppose it can be crawled like any other website, since it's a collection of links - manx-docs doesn't host any of the manuals.
As such it can be bitten by the usual link rot problem, but at least it has multiple links for each entry, which should minimize that. Where no digitized copies are known to exist, the entry is listed without links - but that's still a good thing to have, for those with the means to do something about it.

- The article captures the early thrill of tinkering—when computers were personal, hackable, and fun. Rebels and misfits built things they owned and understood, far from the sterile data centers run by the pocket-protector priesthood.
Then the web came and turned PCs into terminals again—centralized, locked-down, dull. The mainframe returned in disguise.
The maker movement has been our way back—3D printers, microcontrollers, Raspberry Pis. We’re finally rebuilding what we lost.
Vive le cyberdeck!
