This is one of the more eclectic groups of links I’ve published.
- 50 Years of Text Games as downloadable book; it will be available as a print on demand book eventually. I got my high-quality copy from the Kickstarter and it is a weighty tome. I was going to link to some of the posters but those are gone now too, geez. Here’s something not in the book.
- August 15th: TrueNAS presented at SEMIBUG‘s monthly.
- 2023Q2 FreeBSD Status Report.
- Tales of Type. Truetype is one of those all-nerds-should-be-passingly-familiar bits of history.
- Space Colony Art from the 1970s. Surely you’ve seen these before?
- Same source, Hokusai’s warriors series. You know the artist from the Great Wave, but probably never saw these.
- Weird 80s audio sampler history. (via)
- HTTP has become the default, universal communication protocol. Though people don’t always pay attention to the result codes.
- Rejected GitHub Profile Achievements. (via)
- Yubikey All the Things. Linked for the OpenBSD section.
- Between ISA and PCI, PCs had EISA and VLB. And it sucked.
- ARM Thinkpad. I might finally upgrade from my x220. (via)
- Installing Research UNIX on a PDP 11/70, emulated.
