Roughly 4 months ago, my primary Vehicle - a recumbent e-trike - was stolen from my home. Because I have no income, I can't save up to replace it, and it sucks to not have reliable transportation without begging. Help? Maybe? https://gofund.me/f1442f7c
@benjedwards Andy mentioned Everett Kaser - I've heard of that guy before! One of DOS shareware's somewhat more prevalent names, still in business to this day selling updated versions of his logic puzzle games. That's a really cool connection.
I recently discovered an odd first-person maze game called βLair of Squidβ built into my HP 200LX palmtop PC, released in 1994
Then I found the author. Hereβs the story of how this quirky Doom-inspired title came to be: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/07/how-i-found-a-forgotten-squid-based-ode-to-doom-on-a-1994-palmtop-pc/

@mattgrayyes this idea does remind me of a bot idea i had back in college, that'd reply to any tweet that mentions the name of a politician, with "source?"
I put up a hosted version of my extremely simple Macintosh Garden FTP Search site. Super simple HTML and short result pages. Should be useful if you want to download items from Macintosh Garden directly to your Internet enabled classic Mac!
Reply with a picture of your classic Mac using it! π

re: videogame idea thoughts
@lizardsquid keys and doors does make me think of Super Pac-Man, so perhaps leaning into that would make it more interesting - you could go find the keys you need to unlock parts of the maze, or you could use one of your precious powerups to break down the doors instead of chasing the enemies.
Pen plotters are cool but have you ever tried a Textronix 4006-1?
Recorded at EMF Camp, fabulous Terminal setup by @stepleton

@vfig @mcc @jplebreton There is, at least, this installable shell script: https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck that allows you to have the terminal try to intuit what you meant by typing `fuck` - it's reasonably accurate too and defaults to asking you first before trying to execute anything
@likesoldmacs Heh... a couple of Christmases ago, Mom bought me this expensive Atari 50th Anniversary set, intending that we'd build it together. She wound up building most of it herself though and now she's addicted to buying sets just for her. πβ
