- Comment on Sequel to Star Control 2 - The Ur-Quan Masters 6 months ago:
Man, this was my favorite game to introduce friends to during the BBS days. Two player melee over a shared keyboard! The music in SC2 was top notch MOD/XM music back when trackers were starting to form a genre. Beeps on computers were the norm but you could hear a drum track over the internal PC speaker in this game. IMHO Tunic is the only game that came close to the wonder and awe of exploring. Absolutely a masterpiece.
Babu’s game room has my favorite YouTube review. I’ll let the bot pipe the link

Paper Phenolic makes an excellent bokken material. I have a set. Hanbo and bo are also amazing.

“Trust in numbers” was an eye opening book I had to read for a university course.

The idea that “It’s difficult to get numbers to tell you the truth” despite how people tend to think hard data is not falsifiable - was my main take.
- Comment on After 48 years, Zilog is killing the classic standalone Z80 microprocessor chip 6 months ago:
Wow, collapse OS is quite the rabbit hole. Makes me think of the bootstrapping work described in en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Children_of_the_Sky

Shout out to the Ti-8X users and anyone who remembers zshell.
I doubt this announcement is going to affect the calculators, but it’s amazing to see how many things still run off this technology.
- Comment on We Need To Rewild The Internet | NOEMA 7 months ago:
A poignant quote here
"It was a disaster so bad that a new word, Waldsterben, or “forest death,” was minted to describe the result. All the same species and age, the trees were flattened in storms, ravaged by insects and disease — even the survivors were spindly and weak. Forests were now so tidy and bare they were all but dead. "

Quake? The FPS? I’m confused, though I knew a little about Linux
- Comment on What’s Usenet and how can I access it with modern hardware (phones/laptops)? 9 months ago:
It’s really neat to think of Usenet as ‘federated’ considering that’s a new term for most of us.
My preferred options are: Binsearch, astraweb, and newsbin
You get what you pay for, a bargain IMHO

Thank you for the heads up on broken ultra wide. I wish this was considered a showstopper for most game developers but I digress…
- Comment on Notes on using a single-person Mastodon server 1 year ago:
“One thing that wasn’t obvious to me is that who servers defederate / limit is sometimes hidden, so it’s hard to suss out what’s going on if you’re considering joining a server, or trying to understand why you can’t see certain posts.”
Can lemmy users compare defederated info between servers? think it would be informative as well.
