Lazy Reading for 2022/02/27

This was done early; there’s been a lot of interesting reads on the feeds, so to speak.

  • Ask Tilde: What small internet protocols do you like?
  • 2022 IGF nominees: on history, intimate and/or personal, miscellaneous, fireworks.
  • Animation Storage, animations from the 60s-70s.  (via)
  • Aleister Crowley, sysadmin.
  • A Web Around the World, Part 3: …Try, Try Again, and Part 4: From Telegraphy to Telephony.
  • Year 2038 problem is still alive and well.  (via)
  • Yarchive, a lot of archived USENET.  There are some gems in the computer section, like this.  (via)
  • The benefits and costs of writing a POSIX kernel in a high-level language.   Easier to debug, less memory control.  (PDF, via)
  • The Plausibly Deniable DataBase (PDDB).
  • Precursor: From Boot to Root.
  • Warez: The Infrastructure and Aesthetics of Piracy.  (PDF, via)
  • Ubuntu limits the console kernel log level even on servers.  I’d rather have noise than missing info.
  • Refurb weekend: Texas Instruments Silent 700 Model 745 teletype.
  • 50 Years of Text Games: HUTSPIEL and Dr. Dorothy Clark.
