If you had an #apple #powermac in the mid-late 90s, you probably remember the Gerbils! QuickDraw3D demo and its amazing synth rock soundtrack

I can’t get my piscsi to play nice. I’ve messed with SCSI assignments of iso files, I’ve tried turning the power/termination switches off and on in different order.

This is as close as I get to seeing a cd image (emulated drives work fine)

I wrote a short series of help commands in #PunyInform for an #InteractiveFiction project. I wrote a short `intro` verb, a longer `help` document with the most common verbs needed to win the game, and a `stuck` verb that tells the user not to panic before advising on strategies for solving the puzzles.

I then decided to remap the StrongSub verbs over to my new StuckSub, so that it can catch anyone swearing at the game in frustration.

And yes, I included the #umdpdp12 #easteregg, where they found a command log of someone swearing at "this stupid chunk of germanium". I decided to make the help system replicate the #os8 error message in honour of this moment in #pdp12 #VintageComputing history.
