"Halt and Catch Fire" premiered 10 years ago and went on for four seasons and 40 episodes. @polygon's Devan Suber describes how the beloved AMC show understood the draw of video games better than any show that's come before it. "In the words of Joe MacMillan (Lee Pace), the computer was always 'the thing that gets us to the thing,' a vector for connection, expression, or some other deeper human need."

@mavica_again I think you being a robot is the most wonderful thing and I don't want you to pretend you aren't
@mavica_again I think you should go back to saying biofuel, and recharging, and come recharge next to me so I can hold you little robot
can you help me find an #amiga #ftp client and #tcp #bbs client that works on a 68020 system
ATC crashes, AmiFTP needs classact (i have MUI installed, so i kinda wanted not to have to install classact as well but that's just me being petty) and rnoxfer needs 8mb ram (impossible with PCMCIA)
it's impossible to use an #amiga system without talking to other #users i find, and often when i try i get a worse welcome than the #linux community telling me to just #look it up, please #prove me wrong
i'm terrified of the ocean but i still worked so hard to learn how to steer a sailboat, i worked so hard to get better at so many things and then my body broke in a way that isn't my fault and i feel useless
personally i think i deserve a medal for not being the crankiest, most unpleasant person to be around that anyone has ever known, i think it's worth appreciating how hard i try
i used to love badminton, i loved to swim every chance i got, i loved to hike 10 kilometers and photograph everything cool i saw, now i can count on my fingers the times in the last 3 months i was outside for more than 5 minutes
i breath in too deep or stand up too fast or move my arms too much or close my eyes for too long and i feel lightheaded, i can't walk too fast or put too much weight on one leg because my knees might buckle, i feel like a collection of faulty spare parts that was put together to get something out the door and i resent that i can't be out there running and swimming and doing something with my life

i don't know how other people get retrospring questions unprompted
Look what my wife's girlfriend CJ made for me for my birthday! She bought the figurines, 3D-printed the pipes, light fixtures and trash cans, hand-made and painted the set, wired the lights to turn on with a switch, and crammed the whole thing with a TON of easter eggs! If you press the "do not press the button" button, a speaker in the trash can plays the audio from the AWIL transformation scene. The WHOLE SCENE.
You have not experienced Back To The Future until you have watched it in the original Brazilian Portuguese.

occasionally nsfw, always cw'd
If you've been blocked by me and don't know why, it's likely you or an account you have boosted posts nude men, cw'd or not, and I am committed to not seeing that under any circumstances
I am prone to bouts of grumpiness and bad moods due to chronic pain and fatigue
