In just a couple hours I'll be speaking with @jomc at the Internet Archive about what happened in the history of the internet when people decided to put their trust in corporations to do the job of free public libraries. You can get a free ticket to the online event here:

"Meet Xenia ! The fluffiest Linux mascot !🦊"

"[The #Atari] #A300 project [...] involved a new series of Atari computers which would work as modules and plug together to form a complete computer system.

[...] an evolution of the A-300 project [...] shed all of the expansion and modular design for a low profile, high tech computer system which became the Atari 1200XL"

The House of the Dead #NotDOS
1996 arcade version (emulated) vs 1998 Windows PC port

Come take a trip with me down memory lane:

CD-MAN (DOS, 1989)

I used to play this as a kid in the early 90s. Before that I had only seen Pac-Man on the Atari 2600, which was a rather lousy version of this classic.

Here you had to collect keys to unlock parts of the map. Also, no ghosts, but spiders instead. CD-MAN still looks like Pac-Man tho 😆

Happy trans day of visibility everybody ^ ^

Freedom alone was never enough. For freedom to be worth anything you have to care about people, understand their experiences, know the limits of your own perspective. You have to understand the ways in which people are vulnerable where you are not.
Freedom that doesn't care about other people is simply Ego.
