Retro: Setting up a BBS Using Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and Mystic In the mid to late 90s, I ran a BBS on a Commodore Amiga 1200.  It started with 2 disk drives, and I eventually saved enough cash to get an IDE hard drive with a massive 520MB of storage. People from around the world would connect to that BBS on a single 36k modem.  About 80 registered users would dial into that BBS on a dedicated phoneline. I ran a Fidonet node that let user of the BBS send electronic messages globally.  This was before email and widespread internet access was available. Users would upload games, utilities, and public domain software.   There were no adverts. User data was not sold or analysed. There was no manufactured outrage. No algorithm to game. No Likes. Thumbs Up. Impressions or other vanity metrics. It ran on an isolated machine.     Screens were designed using ANSI graphics and menu navigation was simple. In this blog post, I document how to setup a BBS in 2024.  You will see how to use a budget Raspberry Pi, free software and services

Another shout out to Victor Glover as Artemis II's pilot. While coming back in for their re-entry, NASA mentioned repeatedly how clean and perfect their trajectory was.

Great movie, epic soundtrack. And Chris Christofferson is amazing

What did you present on?

The Vegas Sphere celebrating the Artemis II lunar flyby today. NASA actually gave them the 3D spacecraft models to match the real-life flight path.

Don't care if you aren't a space fan.
Don't care if you don't like Vegas.
You gotta admit... this is f'ing cool.
