This is a fun project: Use FFMPEG to simulate the sound of audio cassettes. I converted a few albums and it sounds extremely authentic. github.com/AARomanov198...

A very special and unexpected visitor! 😄 We were delighted to welcome Tim Anderson, one of the original designers of Zork. We showed him our Colossal Cave display and our collection copy of Zork I. A real privilege to welcome such an important figure in #gaminghistory! #zork

Programmer joke that my manager Eric Lyons at Autodesk told me. He was friends with a woman, and she married a programmer, and after the honeymoon he asked the woman how it was. And she goes, "Well, he kept telling me how good it was going to BE."

*Celebrity is weird. What if you're a famous DJ in Ibiza, kitted out as an L.A. gangsta chick, because you're a Moluccan Indonesian Dutch girl whose dad was a Dutch-Indonesian rock star who played US Latin rock-and-roll hits in Europe *Also, your legal name really is "Chelina Manuhutu"

Today in musings without data: - AI feels like the first system designed for a neurodiverse brain - ND folks are more likely to question the ethics of AI RN: Trying to describe how I use AI with high efficiency basically “I can’t give you ADHD, like you can’t make me NT” is all I got 🤦🏻‍♀️🫠

Yesterday @bootsmcgoot.bsky.social and I saw some techbro giving “30 pieces of advice for people under 30” over on Twitter and it was all grind culture bullshit. As adults of 38 and 43 respectively, we compiled 30 pieces of advice that people under 30 won’t have heard before:

1. Phone calls are usually cheaper after 6pm
2. Read protect your floppy discs to prevent accidental data loss
3. Stop spending all your money on Pogs, they’re this year’s yo-yo.
4. Always label your VHS tapes so you know what’s on them.
5. Can’t afford posters of your favourite band? The splash pages from a recent issue of Smash Hits will look just as good blu-tacked on your wall
6. Unloading your mouse driver is a quick way to free up conventional memory when playing a DOS game
7. Hosting a tupperware party will allow you to meet people in your neighbourhood
8. Always carry a comb at work in case you need to neaten up that side parting at short notice
9. Pop a wheelie on your BMX to impress the older kids
10. Get in the habit of checking at the pump whether your petrol is leaded or unleaded to avoid costly mistakes

11. Rewind multiple tapes at once by threading several onto the same pencil
12. The right blacmange will wow your guests at any dinner party
13. A coax aerial splitter will allow you to watch Sky TV in two rooms at once with just one decoder card
14. You can temporarily pause your tamagotchi by pressing the A and C buttons together.
15. If your recorded programs look fuzzy, adjusting the tracking may improve the picture
16. Make sure you know your home phone number by heart: if you’re stuck in town without change, the operator can always reverse the charges.
17. If your internet connection keeps dropping, the culprit may be a call waiting tone - disable it by adding *70 before your ISP’s number.
18. If the local box office is out of gig tickets, don’t give up. Virgin Megastore may still have some behind the counter.
19. Travelling to East Germany? Apply for a visa at least two months in advance to avoid stress.
20. When sending mail to a new penpal, include an SAE to make receiving a reply more likely

21. If your NES cart fails to load, blowing into it will remove dust from the contacts
22. Ask your mum to hold on to toilet rolls and washing up liquid bottles in case Blue Peter ever repeats the Tracy Island instructions
23. Avoid confusion in the future by filling in your cheque stubs in full at the same time as the cheque
24. Buying a light meter will help you avoid wasting film on shots that just won’t develop properly.
25. Whenever you get a new planner or school diary, write your address inside the front and they’ll be more likely to find their way back to you if lost.
26. When meeting friends in town, agree on a precise place and time to meet in advance. If someone’s late, just wait there and see if they turn up.
27. Carrying a spare lighter, even if you don’t smoke, will allow you to strike up easy conversations at gigs and bars
28. Before heading out on a long car journey, write the road and exit junction numbers as a list - it’ll be easier to refer to than a road atlas.
29. Keep a note of which local shops close over lunchtime so you don’t waste a trip. If you aren’t sure, look them up in the yellow pages - a phone call costs less than a bus trip!
30. Learn your mental arithmetic: you won’t have a calculator with you all the time.

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.
