That would be excellent. No reason not to soup it up a bit. Like they could put in the Maria chip from the 7800 or give like a couple meg of ram (the keyboard controller probably has more ram than an A8 did lol). Built in fujinet is more than I could hope for (eh @tschak909.bsky.social?)

They really tried hard not to show the ports. I count at least 3 usb A. I hope there are DB9 and SIO. I need paddles and FujiNet! SD would be nice but nbd if absent. No word anywhere I can see how much addressable ram it has, whether it's an FPGA or modern VLSI POKEY/ANTIC/etc recreation.

Apple Computer announced the Apple IIGS 40 years ago today. www.savetz.com/newsbytes/st... "The new IIGS looks like an Apple IIC--it has the sleek lines of the smaller machine and its new 'platinum' color--but the similarity ends when you see it operate. "

Both the Twitter logo and the Bluesky logo actually exist. They are real. The X logo does not. That is why it is not ensouled.

UBI just makes so much sense and has been shown to be effective so many times. No one gets missed and it gives people a chance to create a better life. You can't pull yourself up by your boot strings if you can't afford the boots.

Turns out that being born with a basic income of $333/mo and living with it for the first 4 years of life results in slightly slower biological aging. Because slower aging predicts longer, healthier lives in adults, this suggests UBI from birth could mean longer lives and lower healthcare costs.

90 minutes of a green felt frog whispering "did you get that?" into a 300 baud void. A checksum comes back as a NAK and Fozzie has to retransmit, wocka wocka, from the top. Miss Piggy plays ZMODEM, the glamorous rival who doesn't need acknowledgment and keeps yelling that she'd have finished by now.

The pitch: It's 1983. The connection is dirty and analog, line noise is everywhere, and somewhere on the far end a file needs to arrive intact. Enter our hero. He's slow. He's plodding. He's... robust. Kermit sends a packet, waits for the ACK, and sends the next one. That's the whole movie.
