Noctis was an amazing experience. It had no right being as immersive as it was. If you liked the idea of NMS, give it a go; it nails the alone-on-the-frontier mood a lot better.

I've been building out my sim racing setup with 8020 for the past three years. It's a goodsend if you want to build something durable, fast and cheap but can't work wood.

I did my entire IT degree on an Eee PC and I won't hear a bad thing said about it. It was the only working laptop I could afford and with Debian on it it was an IRC/shell/light browsing beast.

As far as I'm aware, bypassing the firewall is not illegal, just highly discouraged.

We openly bypassed the firewall to access Google Analytics data through VPN and nobody batted an eye. China can't afford to crack down on that without scaring off pretty much every foreign company looking to do business on the mainland.

Z80 micros are a lot of fun. I was looking for a kit last year and ended up building this one:

Getting it to work and writing simple programs is really satisfying and totally worth the burns from learning how to solder.
