The only good musicals (where people start singing for no reason) that I actually love are Blues Brothers and Monty Python's Holly Grail.

I'd watch it if it was a heavy dark drama. A musical? I think not.

Remember when HP made great printers? I still have an old HP Laserjet 1100 in use. When that one dies, I don't think I'll be buying any other printer.

That may be so, but it is the only software that does whip the llama's ass.

Two can play that game. I bet it is possible to create an AI tool that generates and posts Mario pictures faster than they can take them down. Why you'd want to do that I don't know.

Army Moves, Navy Moves, or any other old Dynamic Software game. You'd have to be very skilled to get out of the first stage.

I'm fairly certain that there's a What If video on this by the XKCD guy, Randall Munroe.

I genuinely laughed out loud. Thanks for that.

Good, this timeline is getting too weird for me.

Rat Race, The Big Lebowski, The Blues Brothers, Mars Attacks, Constantine, any Riddick, any Resident Evil, any Alien, any Matrix, any Predator, Equilibrium, Gattaca, District 9, and a lot of others I can't remember at the moment because I'm quite drunk.

My mom (85) has been using Xubuntu for some 10 years now. She uses Facebook and Gmail and plays card and puzzle games. She had no prior contact with computers, and learned it mostly by herself.

Just give thema stable solid distro. It will make their and your life easier.

 

I've worked with some pretty rotten software, but management software is easily the most user unfriendly, so my vote goes to HPSM.

 

Hello gentlemen. It seems I've already have this in my collection, so maybe one of you want it?

Steam code. Comment below after you've redeemed it.

 

Attorney general statement confirms searches, arrest of António Costa's chief of staff and reveals that the Supreme Court of Justice will analyze suspicions that Costa intervened to “unblock” the lithium, hydrogen and data center businesses that are being investigated

 

What name have you chosen for your robot and why?

My Roomba is called Ramiro, after my slightly alcoholic uncle.

 

I see the question asked a lot in Linux groups, so I hope this bit of knowledge may help someone here.

 

The Next version of this game is simply stunning, even on my crappy little Blaupunkt TV. Recreated by Matt Davies and Simon Butler from the original Mike Singleton release, it shows just what a brilliant games machine the Next can be.

 

If you remember the Speccy scene in the 90's, you must have no doubt downloaded some games from the old ftp.nvg.ntnu.no FTP server.

After World of Spectrum came along, I had mostly forgotten about it. This week I remembered and took a peek... and what a nice surprise, the old geezer is still there, complete with a README file from 1995/03/11 signed by Arnt Gulbrandsen.

Have a look, there are even some messages from the comp.sys.sinclair USENET newsgroup.

Good times.

 

Good looking mechanical keyboard project for the ZX81 (or the modern equivalent, the ZX81+38), including all the designs and schematics.

 

It always amazes me when people manage to bend Speccy display's limitations and come up with wonderful digital art. I came across Adam's @[email protected] work on Mastodon and it became one of my favourites. Do yourself a favour and have a look.

 

While Real Life^TM^ strives to keep me away from all things Speccy related, I was pleasantly surprised to see the legacy of the old World of Spectrum site preserved in WoS Classic.

So why not have a go at the awesome Advanced Lawnmower Simulator to celebrate? Go go, you know you want to...
