This was the first modem I ever used - a Concord Data Systems 224. My original one is long gone so I’ve been waiting for a cheap one to show up on eBay forever and one finally showed up. This modem opened whole new worlds for me and I hope to see those RXD/TXD lights blinking again on this one! This one is actually slightly fancier than the one we had since it has autodial. Ours lacked that feature so I had to dial the phone myself and hit the DATA button when I heard the modem on the other side
wow oh wow! @gingerbeardman made a pretty incredible discovery that the history of emojo dates back much much longer then was common knowledge! Pretty conclusive evidence that it dates back to at least 1988!

After talking with a friend about drafts of The Wrath of Khan, I decided to watch it along side the one shooting script I have for it.
Still lots to mine in here, even if it's not an early draft. I'd forgotten Saavik was originally half Romulan, which is why she has flashes of emotion in the movie:
all these software people obsessed with “shipping” and “deliverables” and “package managers” should consider the possibility that postal work might be their true calling

i think the chinese might even be able to offer some interesting solutions to exactly what microcontroller platform to target, this is a curated list of what ulisp supports natively.
but have not had the time to write anything down
i have been exploring collapseOS and it is rich in ideas. it is largely complete as a project and DuskOS has taken over, it seems.
you could think of the people's permacomputer project as a lisp variation of the FORTH-based collapseOS
