I got #BetrayalAtKrondor back in 1993. I *think* it'd be prudent if I actually went and *finally* played through the damn thing.
I think last time I played this I got all the way to chapter 4 or something.
WAIT WHAT the same help website I used to read back in late 1990s is still up. ...Cool beans.

Mi amigo John ha publicado su versión en 3D de "God of Thunder", aquel juego shareware de DOS que era una mezcla de action-rpg y puzzles varios.
¡Os recomiendo que le echéis un vistazo si podéis! https://solocodo.itch.io/got3d
Pentium with Windows 95… Weekly Recap 1/26/2026
The first computer I can remember my family owning was probably some sort of Pentium processor running Windows 95.
It was a dull grey box. I couldn’t find a picture of anything that was quite dull enough, so you’ll just have to use your imagination. Instead of standing upright, we had it laying horizontally. It had both 5.25-inch and 3.5-inch floppy drives.
I can remember rebooting to MS-DOS so that I could load games. It’s funny because I was still probably struggling to learn how to spell words, but I could at least wrap my head around those commands.

To start off, here’s a picture of Loki. His physics defy natural law.
Those are his back paws, by the way. I’m not sure what he did with the front ones. He’s tricksy like that.
By popular demand, I have reviewed Franz Bardon’s third book, The Key to the True Kabbalah. This now completes the entire series.
On Friday, Selene and I got some sushi. Sushi Friday is becoming a tradition… or perhaps it’s just a temporary addiction. But for now, we’re quite enjoying it.
I can say—hands down—the best sushi place we’ve been to in Florida so far has been Sushi Yama in Wellington. And it’s all you can eat!
Friday night was also coven night. We had a fun class on Qabalah.
On Saturday, we got Pho. I haven’t had Pho is years. And the verdict?
It was awful. Seriously. I really wanted to like it. I tried my hardest. I don’t know if it was a bad restaurant, a bad day, or if I just don’t like pho. According to their reviews, it was supposed to be good. Does anyone have any recommendations for the best pho restaurant around West Palm Beach, FL?
I have also continued to make Brigid’s Crosses because apparently everyone wants one for Imbolc! Honestly, that’s pretty cool.
Yes. I had to combine several of them to create the ultimate version.
If you’re feeling bored today, you can listen to my ramble on Eimi OstaraMoon’s podcast: Fancy AF.
Aside from all of the usual things, I’m trying to make mental space to map out my workshop for Turning the Tide this weekend, but it’s going to be REALLY COLD, so I think I’m kind of blocking the thoughts at the moment.
My head is as full of runes as it is full of network topologies and server practices. My classes are really, really ramping up and it’s consuming my brain.
Right, well, I’ve got to go watch some lectures. And, you know… finish a book or something.
Stay tuned for more soon!

@rasteri #MDA still being supported is something I do know, as I literally build @OS1337 with only MDA @ 80×25 terminal size.

MDA & #VGA addresses and automaically switch between the modes when one gets turned on. Supporting MDA only as a compatibility option. The question I have is whether #MSDOS-Style mixed mode is possible, i.e. some application writing their outputs to a #VGA framebuffer with a native MDA terminal being the primary output.
tiny486 build) but I guess this would necessitate like an MDA card (recreation) and a VGA card (with disabled MDA output or something), and nowadays anyone wanting an MDA-Style console uses serial tty interface anyway…
In "Ignition" (1997) you drive what appears to be and feels like (but aren't necessarily) remote-controlled cars, viewed from above. 🧨
The tracks are colourful, sinuous, and feature various hazards like cliffs at the side of the road, crossing traffic, or falling rocks.
The trouble is that some of these hazards feel randomly unavoidable, as the steep viewing angle doesn't let you see very far ahead at all. Out of nowhere, you're crushed flat by a boulder. 🥞
