Love this album. Got into the habit of listening to it while waiting in the Sea-tac terminal for early morning flights.

Usenet - There's still a couple of newsgroups that have some worthwhile content. I just like longform text discussions.

This is really timely - I just started to replay some of my favorite Sierra titles "Hero's Quest".

1 and 2 (unofficially) have VGA ports that updated the graphics. So, I may have to run some screen shots through to get an even newer backdrop.

Correct. 'Gas flaring' specifically. I think this data is a few years outb of date. They've cut back drastically as of late.

It was a different time then. For example sql server 6.5 (An 'enterprise' level piece of software) had an easter egg in it: https://www.itprotoday.com/sql-server/are-there-any-easter-e...

All of those quirks and inside jokes were forcibly removed to assure customers and government agencies there were no 'hidden' code or features in a product - just the released, documented, and tested pieces of the product.

I really miss the freedom of usenet. 1000's of odd and niche discussion areas. The lack of any moderation lead to a massive influx of spam. Reddit was looking like a good alternate, until the various ban waves shutdown any hope. Oddly enough 4chan still seems the only place for discussion outside the overtown window.

I've only seen Pi's used for hobby projects. Can someone help me understand what 'infringement' app/project they are accused of being used for?

Hmmmmm.... I was one of the original backers at the minimal amount. I think 35$.

I absolutely loved the Wing Commander series and it still ranks as one of my all time favorites so I eager to see what Chris Roberts would produce.

I've played the game co-op with a friend on and off over the years and have definitely gotten more then 35$ enjoyment from the game. As long as they keep moving forward, I have little to complain about.
