In the interest of some general dissatisfaction with the direction that 3270BBS may be going in the future, I've decided to end my BBS project using that software.
I am once again boardless... which may be for the better this time.
There is Final Zone still, but that's a bbs in name only.

I just found out Adam The Woo died.
I followed his very early urbex stuff. Loved it. While I didn't follow as much of his recent stuff (not into theme parks that aren't abandoned) I still enjoyed checking in because he was such a fun person online.
This really hurts.... :'(

Go watch this. Especially if you are sick and tired of Christmas themed videos (or just find Christmas to be a difficult time of year). Nothing festive in here. Just a video about 2 failed consoles.
Do you remember the CDTV and Amiga CD32? Well, even if you don't, you will 100% love this video! Guaranteed.

I made this. Don't know what's going to happen with ANSI art inside of an IBM 3270 terminal in the 3270BBS software, but hey, if I want to make some formatted ANSI art in GO then the tools exist.

It's still a work in progress, but seems stable enough for "public beta", so by popular demand here's a standalone version of the parametric clock generator I recently added to my online teletext viewer:

What’s that? New Glenn 2 landed on the landing ship? Spaced no longer has the monopoly on the only thing most rockets have cared about the past decade? “Reusability?”

While watching some Video Power, I came across this laughably bad commercial for this hint hotline:
1-900-HOT-HINTS.
(All other uploads I've seen of this online always have that weird cut before he says "$1.65 a minute".)

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Numbered console generations were made up by a random Wikipedia user in 2004 in an attempt to standardize the "__ era game console" articles, and nobody ever corrected it. It's nonsense that no actual historian uses and you have permission to ignore it
