Catch of the Day - Good Friday Edition: Of Ataris and Crazy Emulators! 🕹️🦇

Hey Retro Fans!

You just don't stop amazing us! Our log files from the past 24 hours read like the script for a documentary on crazy hardware tinkering.

The absolute highlights of the day:

🦇 Atari ST is online: We had visits from HighWire – the custom-built browser for Atari's classic TOS (Tramiel Operating System). It’s an incredible feeling to serve our text content to a 16-bit system from the late 80s!

🎮 Netscape 4.0 on a PSP?! Yes, you read that right. Someone actually got the Netscape Navigator from 1997 running on a PlayStation Portable (with a massive 653 clicks!). This is most likely running via a homebrew Linux port or a DOSBox emulation on the handheld. Absolute madness!

👔 The Business Dinos live: We also recorded visits from old BlackBerry 10 devices and a genuine IBM OS/2 Warp system!

Whether you’re dragging your old Ataris out of the basement or testing obscure emulators on consoles – the Frog pond is open for you. Keep it up!
Your FrogFind Team 🐸

This, is still, today, my most favorite mobile device I ever had. #blackberry

I am one of those folks who had a BlackBerry and LOVED the physical keyboard. After BlackBerry ended phone production, I stayed with the BlackBerry-branded phones for that physical keyboard. My current phone (which does not have a physical keyboard) is nearing the end of its planned obsolescence, and I definitely want to look into this new physical-keyboard phone.

If you thing a 2 day AWS outage sucks, wait till you see flood in one of these data centers.

When I worked at #BlackBerry (remember them?) I was part of team which did a review of our data centers around the world for Disaster Recovery planning, 2011-2012 timeframe. The true planners had fits when they found out one of our data centers was 500m inside the 100 year flood plain of a river. Another, in Europe, was housed along side of a canal. The cost to move the first would have been $100Ms. The second got rebuilt to a safer place for quite a bit less. Neither were on this scale. Our environmental assessments were never completed.

Proof of life! #selfie #blackberry

BlackBerry на стероидах: Unihertz Titan 2 Elite рвет шаблоны!

Встречайте гаджет, который заставит вас забыть о сенсорных кирпичах. Unihertz показала наследника легендарной ежевики, но с «начинкой» из будущего.

✅ В кнопки встроен сенсор — можно листать ленту, просто проводя пальцем по клавишам.

✅ 4-дюймовый OLED на 120 Гц — плавно, ярко, сочно.

✅ Процессор Dimensity 8400 и 12 ГБ оперативки. Этот «малыш» потянет всё.

I just watched #Blackberry the movie

It's pretty good. I enjoyed it. I doubt I'll ever watch it again, but it was enjoyable and informative.

I'm always mindful how movies lie for dramatic purposes though.

I liked when the corporate guy moves in and starts making his corporate demands on the tech nerds. The movie really came alive at that point. Up until then it was pretty average and slightly trite.

As soon as the corporate asshole appeared, it really got going.
