#Excited!

Apparently #UPS delivers my #PiDP-10 DIY Kit today … just in time for some serious weekend of soldering.

SpaceWar is back! Rebuilding the world’s first gaming computer

A large team of tech nostalgia enthusiasts have made a PiDP-10, a replica of the PDP-10 mainframe computer first launched by the Digital Equipment Corporation in 1966

Other half has suggested that I may have ADHD, which wouldn't surprise me. Here's a PDP11/70 kit I bought in 2019 (with the 4mm front panel!), only one of (fuck knows how many) projects I've spent a fortune on but have yet to build. So let's crack on, I figure if I put it in the way I'll do it. #PiDP

The #pidp build is done. Blinkenlights! Yay!

The latest version of the #pidp 10 simulation kit now lets you communicate from Linux via a #chaosnet bridge to ITS running on the "10".

E.g. you can use SUPDUP , which is described in the MIT AI LAB Memo 644 (issued in 1983) . SUPDUP was designed by no other than Richard M. Stallman and was intended to be a replacement for telnet. Well, this didn't quite happen. BTW, SUPDUP is short for "Super Duper" (really!!).
