@sydneyfalk 3.5 inch floppy styled case around an SD card and a floppy drive modified to have an SD card reader

all the SD card contacts are covered by the metal flappy bit, the drive slides that out of the way and touches the contacts

The Ship of Theseus paradox is more widely known in the UK as the paradox of Trigger's Broom because of this scene from Only Fools and Horses

@noelle they decided to go for a more modern, web-first look and went for sans-sherrif

@noelle @maple Sysadmining: computerfairi.es!

byte's the best sysadmin

@glowingskull in addition to it being used for standard civilian stuff it was also part of "Backbone", a military communications network designed to withstand nuclear attacks

@witchfynder_finder I'm sure it's part of why SIS had no problem with their headquarters being shown in the Bond films

they realised that it was a waste of time trying to keep a location like that classified when every cab driver in London knew where it was

@witchfynder_finder yep, the fact it existed was classified and people did indeed get done under section 2 of the official secrets act for gathering information about it

And yes, it does indeed have both a revolving restaurant which was open to the public on the 34th floor and a gift shop

The only reason it's not classified any more was because an MP used parliamentary privilege to announce that it does exist because the fact it was classified was fucking ridiculous

This is your occasional reminder that until 1993 the existence of Post Office Tower in London was an official state secret

Despite it being 177 metres tall, in central London, and having both a revolving restaurant and a gift shop

Well this can only end well

@RobinHood "uh, cap'n, there's a bloke here with a backpack full of teeth"

"fuck it, plane's his, I'm out"

the words "bleep bloop soup" are bouncing around my head for no good reason

I guess it's some sort of soup for robots?

@yogthos@mastodon.social also if you find the cameras you can keep them, free cameras!

when you think about it the fact I can just put a thing in a red box here and have it appear somewhere on the other side of the world days later is pretty damn neat

pet ur local computers

for they are beepy and good

@sydneyfalk I recall mostly crashing things into other things in Space Engineers
