One of my all-time favorite Commodore Amiga tunes is the soundtrack of the Brain-State-In-A-Box demo, published in 1994 by the Cryptoburners.
Ever wake up missing a place that doesn’t exist?

This story is for anyone who’s felt homesick after waking.

@ricmac @timbl I created a "Choose Your Own Adventure" story/game in Hypercard circa 1989-90(?) It had a map that "unscrolled" and you could jump to different places and then complete puzzles and make decisions. I kept that floppy disk (which wasn't actually floppy at that point I think) for years...

Breaking news: someone revived #CDs to burn PICTURES on them!
Because, obviously, we all need a retro mixtape with a side of AI-driven vulnerabilities and some good ol' #Copilot nonsense.

The "glamour" of 1980s computer magazines. Creepy German couples. Serious men with beards. Malevolent-looking children. Today's Newslttr has it all.

"The Akron-based tire company is celebrating the 100th anniversary of “Pilgrim,” its first blimp to take flight just outside of the city on June 3, 1925. The airships took to the skies on Tuesday, and will again on Wednesday and Thursday, flying over land that once housed the company’s original hangar."
