I’ve got some unique links this week.

• “We’ve run the simulation a million million times…  and every time, the Dark Lord wins.”  Mageframe, a story told by AI (apparently not just another Markov Chain) with your seeded information.  Explanation here; I suggest this is art you should participate in.
• Return to Nib’s Knoll.  Another early-Internet sense of place, buried away.
• href.cool.  Old-style web directory.  (via)
• What I’m Thinking About 1995.  Makes sense if you listen to the author’s podcast.
• As A Service.  “Half a century ago it was called timesharing.”
• Twisty Little Passages, a sorta-RPG, sorta-roguelike … book?
• Fast FVP, the task sorting method.
• 110 days of Early Multics Emacs History.  (via)
• Cthulhu Dark, “A Rules-light system For lovecraftian Horror”.  I like how compact it is; a 3-page PDF.  (via)
• Related: the original Call of Cthulhu rules.  I’ve never had to type out Cthulhu before.
• 30-plus years of HyperCard, the missing link to the Web.  (via)
• The Software Arts, an “alternative history of software that places the arts at the very center of software’s evolution.”  (via)
• The 25¢ Apple II Real Time Clock.  The author shows up in the comments of the source link, 38 years later.
• Espruino ISS Notifier.  Yep, it’s a Space Station Detector.
