Seeing the furries moving their IMs to a different IM thing and I'm at once nostalgic for Trillian over dial-up and also quietly astonished that we still basically need Trillian, the basic problem of instant messaging being that all your friends are on different services is still the same problem here in 2024

A friend just pointed out:

"ADHD creates impulse control issues and, consequently, advertising takes advantage of a disability.  Ergo, ad blockers are assistive devices and interfering with their operation for commercial gain constitutes a willful violation of the ADA."

Let’s do this.

@mattgrayyes have deployed a spam filter

I really wish @mattgrayyes would clean up his own spam.

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

Update: It turns out that the interference from a nearby tesla coil is capable of registering keypresses on its own. #speczilla #emfcamp #chuntey

Finally, after years of searching, I have obtained a GBA cart with a Mega Drive/Genesis emulator on it (thanks to Ankos!). I have been wanting to research this for some time after seeing it on YouTube, and it turns out it is far more interesting than I anticipated. 🧵(1/14)

new tileset released and its freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! featuring dungeon tiles, characters, monsters and basic props, grab it here and make a roguelike game please i beg of you:

Alright, yeah. The future is absolutely going to be horrible.

I cannot launch this game, that I have previously played on this console, THAT IS ON A DISC, because I'm not signed in.

A gentleman named Paul Khoury approached me about getting a retro computer he'd acquired up and running. The computer is a Sun SPARCstation UPN (1997), a prototype for a super small desktop computer that preceded the Mac mini by about 6-7 years. Only about 20 were ever made. I was the designer on the project and had poured my soul into it, so I was proud to help him get it running. I dug out the schematics from storage and gave any advice I could remember and he got it powered on in a few days.

Ahoy dropping a banger about a classic. #videogamehistory
