If you thought COVOX was cool, hear this out: tuning the radio to the radio inference produced by the computer to play music.

I wonder if it is possible to produce sounds this way on ZX-81 while displaying an image on the screen. Would be impressive to make a demo that has colours on B&W ZX-81 and plays music on ZX-81 that doesn't even have a beeper sound output.

PCC Newsletter, an early hobbyist computer magazine (1972!), has strong zine vibes <3

This is impressive: a fully responsive website template system based on Star Trek’s LCARS operating system, built with only HTML & CSS – no images. Made by Jim Robertus, based on the original designs by Michael Okuda.

I traced the eepy from a bitmap, changed the text and extracted the rest from an original PDF :)

bbs enthusiasts might remember the name Telegard - a bbs server written based on wwiv's source code and hugely popular with the ibm pc/ms-dos crowd

telegard had a long and tumultuous history by its authors, and its own source was eventually leaked and was modded into many more popular (pirate-friendly) ms-dos boards like Renegade, Oblivion and Iniquity.

while i was doing research a few months ago on the history of those systems, i found out that telegard.net - the original home of tg - was taken over by a domain squatter in 2010, populated with ads for the past 15 years.

two months ago, i noticed that the squatter had not renewed the domain, and it went into the long grace/redemption/auction/expiry cycle. i checked on it every single morning, and to my absolute delight, it was released this morning for purchase. 💸

the domain will be used purely for historical preservation of telegard and its many descendants

I think this is the most cursed build pipeline I've ever done. With it though I can get a disk image that will load in martypc

despite everything, I (somehow) *still* have this Star Wars Episode VII collectors' color changing spoon, one of three random swag items given to me by a vendor that I bought Lode Runner and a solitaire game from at a game convention.
