@TechCowboy ported the #Atari8bit #FujiNet Reversi from #AtariBASIC to #Apple2 #AppleSoft BASIC. Since it speaks the same protocol, it can play with Atari users, just fine. :) #retrocomputing #retrogaming :)

Who wants a baby rabbit? I opened the garage door, went back inside for a sec, in hops Peter looking like butter wouldn’t melt.

Just saw that Elon Musk is feuding with his landlord, who is upset that he covered the W in Twitter's sign to spell Titter.

And now I'm watching all his fanboys go bonkers at how clever he is.

The universe is wild.

This streak on a Hubble photo, originally thought to be an imaging glitch, is actually a 200,000 light year trail of new stars formed by the wake of a black hole that was ejected from the galaxy at the top right.

For reference, that streak is about twice the diameter of the Milky Way!

From Douglas Adams:

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.

2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.

3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.

54 years ago today, the brilliant & delightful Steve Crocker, then at ULCA, circulated to the nascent Network Working Group a "Request for Comment" about Host Software. This was #RFC 1, the first of what are now 9411 technical documents defining (and ever evolving) the Internet as we know it.

To me, the Internet is the RFC series, even more than the computers the implement them.

So: Happy 54th birthday, Internet!

"Vunidogoloa is one of six Fijian villages that have already been moved because of the impacts of climate change, and dozens more are currently being assessed for relocation.

With 20 per cent of Fiji's population of nearly a million people living on coastal and river fringes, thousands now face the prospect of having to move to higher ground.

Relocating a village is not a simple matter of finding and forking out hundreds of thousands of dollars, although that must be done.

In Fiji, it also means severing the very spiritual connections to ancestors and to the land and seas of the territory to which they belong — the traditional bonds known as "Vanua".
