"A Hymn to Spring," an oil-painting by Cecil Gordon Lawson (1849-1882), from 1871-72. Daffs, blossom, a single dove flying... looks like a March day in the home counties (it was painted in Berkshire). #painting https://victorianweb.org/victorian/painting/lawson/paintings/3.html

@aeva Huh, it must default to a really low version, which is why so many extensions say they're unsupported. Thanks so much! I'll go try it right away.

Yes, all extensions except ARB_vertex_program are now supported!

Portable CRT TV Becomes Retro Cyberdeck
These days, it’s pretty easy to slap together a single-board computer and a cheap LCD screen to whip up a cool cyberdeck fast. But what if you wanna go more retro? [Manu] found a portable TV straight out of the original Blade Runner film, and decided this would be the perfect base for a cyberdeck rocking a whole-ass CRT screen.
The build started with a Panasonic TR-545 television. Back in the day, it took many large batteries to power this thing up—no surprise given how power hungry CRTs are. This gave [Manu] a neat opportunity to sneak all the new cyberdeck hardware into the original battery tray, including a new lithium-ion battery pack that is much more compact than the original. A Raspberry Pi 5 is running the show, computer-wise, and it’s hooked up to an HDMI RF modulator that allows the video output signal to be hooked up to the TV’s original antenna input. It’s not the cleanest way to go, but it allowed [Manu] to make the mod entirely reversible. All the new hardware slots neatly into the repurposed battery tray, and can be removed quite easily without damage to this vintage specimen. Even the keyboard fits nicely into the setup, as [Manu] was able to find a suitable 60% layout foldable unit right off the shelf.
Check out the slide deck for more details on the build, but be warned—it’s a 241 MB PDF. Bonus points if you calculate what that would cost to store on a hard drive in 1979 when the Panasonic TR-545 was on the market. We’ve seen a similar build before, too, with a classic black & white Magnavox unit. If you like squinting at a tiny blurry screen, a CRT cyberdeck is absolutely the way to go. Just be warned that the other screenwriters at your local coffee shop will be more interested in your hardware than whatever you’re actually working on. Good luck with your next pitch all the same. Video after the break.

@landelare Can't blame OpenGL in this case. @aeva pointed out I missed an initialization function, in GTK not OpenGL, so it would have failed even if I used DirectX. Looks like the problem is me not reading the documentation correctly.

Software is so gigantic now, I feel like I'm back on dialup. Containers and npm are trying my patience.
