This game had a big impact on me when I was a kid. Loved the wacky humor and animation. It was a great creativity driver.
Look at this thing of pure beauty! If some company were to reproduce this today I'd raid my savings to make one pride of place, front and centre in our living room! 🤗

Playing this for the first time and I agree.
The #fediverse feels like the internet we were promised. Welcoming, independent, and without predatory algorithms or ads lurking around every corner. It is "possibly the only safe and ethical online social media space one could be in right now."

Comic of Catman, a guy wearing a red cape and matching short shorts as he swings on a chain. In the background a cauldron full of lava is on it's side spilling over.
Catmaaan... don't you knock that over...
Damnit Catman!

I'll have you know that I have several interested parties for my mostly working NES games and Apple II floppy disks and I'm doing fine and not crying thank you very much.

nasa webpage: "NASA intern found hope in the moon"
Pneumonia prevented her from returning to her job at NASA for another few weeks — and when she did, it wasn't easy. The weight of the tense atmosphere compounded her nervousness about her viral post: "I feel like at any moment I'm just gonna get the boot." Ferreira was declared pneumonia-free on Feb. 21, a Friday, and given her doctor's approval to go back to work. She returned the following Monday. On Wednesday — 20 days after she first posted about her NASA page being taken down — she was fired. She said she immediately knew what was happening when she walked into her weekly one-on-one with her supervisor; the meeting had an unexpected attendee. An HR representative rose from a seat in the corner as Ferreira entered the office. She was told she was being let go because she wasn't fulfilling her position's responsibilities, "effective immediately."
So, right now, you can still go the NASA website, and read about Rose Ferreria's inspiring story of resilience.
It does not mention that NASA fired her immediately after she returned from medical leave and had embarrassed the agency into restoring the webpage.

NASA celebrated this employee's story of resilience, then tried to scrub it from the internet. Then fired her.
"It feels like everything that I worked for has been taken down little by little."

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
Haha, you are 100% correct. I felt more people would understand the term Morse code than Radio Teletype. Thanks for setting the record straight. :)
Found a super top secret morse code military transmission. Who better to decipher it than my green glowing Apple IIe from 1983?

Darkmage, paperback cover by Doug Beekman, 1988 Image of a wizard in a purple robe with a ridiculously high collar, gesturing at the glowing screen of a bulky vintage computer. On the top of the monitor rests a skull dripping with wax from a burning candle. The wizard sits on an ornate gold throne with an eagle back and sharp clawed feet. It's a dark but warm candle-lit room with ancient books on the shelves on the back wall. A bright yellow, round doorway leads to a room in the distance.

Just finished setting up my anti internet demon network shield using a #raspberrypi and #pihole. Bit of a learning curve but worth it. If you'd like some tips let me know.
