Be careful that your SCSSYSTEMID and DECnet node number are the same or
it will be a mess. You have been warned!

I assume that is because you have nodename information locally that is not known at MIM, in which case yes, you might get burned.
I try to register all my node name/number allocations with BQT, seems like the sensible thing to do, have them in a central database somewhere.

Yes. As far as "global" nodenames are concerned. Of course, since anyone can have other definitions of their own, for any individual, they might have more information that MIM do not know about.
But MIM is the only machine which I keep the database of all nodes that I'm told about. Since DECnet do not force a global namespace, this is a totally voluntary database, as a convenience to those who care.

There is a MIM::US:[DECNET]FIX.COM which will do the right thing on a VMS system for you. And it gets updated whenever the nodename database is updated, so VMS users could always use that, if they just want the same nodename database as MIM.
Yup, FIX.COM fixed it.

Should give the same errors, assuming SGC has an up to date nodename database.
The problem is when node names gets moved to new addresses. Old information is not cleared out by an NCP COPY command, so you might get duplicate information in that case.
There is a MIM::US:[DECNET]FIX.COM which will do the right thing on a VMS system for you. And it gets updated whenever the nodename database is updated, so VMS users could always use that, if they just want the same nodename database as MIM.
An alternative is also to suck down MIM::US:[DECNET]NODENAMES.DAT and parse it yourself, and do whatever you want to.

I wonder if we could turn this into a SIXEL decoding plugin for websites somehow..
So you could have a whole bunch of SIXEL images on a website, an INDEX.HTML that imports this javascript and then displays the images?
Because I haven't found any utilities to convert images FROM sixel to other formats, just one to convert netpbm -> sixel.

Cool - any change you could add my logo (B&W picture of angry monkey from Family Guy)?
That would totally make my day.
