One last thing for #BaudDay — I blogged about advances I made on my experimental #ANSI tile map on my #BBS.
The map scrolls smoothly, and the ANSI sprites also walk smoothly from tile to tile.

My first and last purchased modems, 300 Baud VicModem that I first used on my Commodore Vic20 & C64 in the early 80s to the USRobotics Courier HST Dual Standard on my Amiga & later PCs. These pre-internet modems connected me to a lot of systems and in turn lifelong friends. 3/12/24 #BaudDay #IYKYK
