Let’s watch the initialization again. Almost can’t believe this 1989 game is running on the 1989 machine… 33 years later!

Physical link accomplished. Note the size of the 7kg STacy, next to the biggest Thinkpad I own.

Ric Werme stopped by to get the Stanford NULL job running once again. What a curious piece of simple code that only can be observed on a KA or KI PDP-10. youtu.be/IAa8NujkGbg #retrocomputer #vintagecomputer #standford

You can take the boy out of the doom but you can't the doom out of the boy!
Dario Amodei was so worried about Y2K that his high school teacher still remembers it decades later. He’s been a doomer for much longer than I thought!

Happy Friday Frens; tonight I'm playing with a Soyo motherboard (1999) with a Slot 1 500Mhz Pentium 3, 1GB RAM and gigabit LAN. I just installed Haiku on Sata RAID (no converters) and it's bootable, damn it's fast! 🤓

🔥 Ever wonder how a fighter wakes up? A jet engine can't just light off. Something has to spin the high pressure compressor until there's enough air to burn fuel, then keep helping until the engine is self sustaining. Here's how the APU, JFS and ATS get it done. 🧵
