ASCII a stupid question, get a stupid ANSI.

It's like this show took notes from what's going on in my head and made a TV show about it.

@lain funny thing is sex was always censored on the big websites, this is nothing new.

What's new is that we've consolidated most of the web and other net services to less than 10 websites and act surprised when their content moderation kills our ability to express ourselves.

I've just stumbled on DarkStar, a Xerox Star emulator.

The GUIs we use today are a direct evolution of the work done on Xerox PARC in the 70's, resulting in the Alto and other Xerox computers that pioneered GUI on consumer products until Steve Jobs dropped by the lab for a visit.

The Star (1981) was more polished than the Alto and is definitely worth checking out!

The website has configuration info & links to software downloads.

Have a little 1990 anime CG.

The fun thing is that despite all of these impressive specs in the end this is a traffic department police vehicle.

The ones who write you a parking ticket.

I just love the design on the Patlabor's "glove" controls for delicate manual finger movement.

I still want one of those :blobcat:

Sipping tea during a street event last year where I and a couple of friends stood outside and offered tea and cupcakes to passerby.
