Sounds like Ernest Adams, but I can't find the talk from a quick search.

Seeing Wolf3d running on PC screens in those computer shows at the Cow Palace was what finally convinced me to move from the Amiga to PC.

I've been using FreshTomato, which I got pre-installed from a seller on ebay, but IIRC DD-WRT has better support for some Broadcom chips because they allow binary blobs which have better hardware support.

Yes, there were so many little details like looking for pigeons leaving to see if there is a spy in your town.

I feel his strength was being an endless fountain of interesting ideas combined with ability to inspire lots of hard work from his development team. I forget if it was Dungeon Keeper or Black and White where they talked to the development team while he was on a junket and they had no idea about of a bunch of the features he was promising. Ultimately I think he had a really talented team at Bullfrog who slowly burned out and over time people were less willing to kill themselves on death marches trying to carry out his whims.

The early EA games on the Amiga really had some magic about them, down to the box designs and the tone of their ads. It really felt like a whole new era with new possibilities was on the horizon.

What's the likelihood of getting hassled by your ISP for running this? I always assume that the main target is torrent traffic these days and all the rest is mostly being ignored, due to the volume of torrent enforcement, but would be interested if anyone had any experience otherwise.

Asking for a friend.

I also remember a green pc set up which used one of the low power x86 clones (Via?) in the 90s which used the bios battery double as a mini ups similar to that.

On my iphone the problem is solved by restarting the app. My assumption was either the keyboard or the app updated and lost contact with the other, but I find killing the app solves the problem.

I keep thinking about all the philosophy of the Mythical Man Month and proverbial PM who thinks nine women can make a baby in one month, when it comes to this idea that entertainment scales linearly.

Indeed. I'm not sure why WSL has consistently required some bleeding edge version of Windows to run. I remember trying to get on a managed desktop at work a couple of years ago and apparently the LTS version of Windows used in the enterprise is even farther behind.

PWS Weather looks good, but I don't see if you can query it, specifically from Home Assistant. I've been looking for a decent replacement since Apple bought DarkSky.
