John Horton Conway, author of the Game of Life, died because of Covid-19. So I made this, in assembler, on ZX Spectrum. R.I.P.

Trying to optimize my (czech) blog for Netscape Navigator 4.8. I'm not insane, my mother had me tested.

Sir Clive Marles Sinclair is 80 today. Cheers!

My BlackBird is probably already in the Czech Republic, hooray!

Since the start of July my main desktop computer is a Duron 950. And I have to say, that the amount of software that doesn't work or even cannot be build without SSE is too damn high!

I remember when people posted on gopher mostly about what they posted on gopher. It was annoying as hell. But now people post about what they posted elsewhere. Things can apparently always be worse.

A little, almost retro experiment

(It's already on Bongusta, but there is no such thing as too little of propagating.)

Just the usual: watchin Star Trek TOS while browsing Gopher. On SGI O2.

RISC chip in a Mac! Who would have ever thought of that?

Probably the biggest Bongusta List update ever: Even though I had to remove about half of a dozen of defunct (365 days without a fresh post), the number of aggregated active phlogs grew from 63 to 74!

Long live the gopher!

It's nine years since I started my gopher! Time for sure flies when you're having fun...

(Good time to do some tidying up, updates, etc.)

Tried to win an auction with an old PC that had the same motherboard as my first dual CPU PC had. It went to some 350 USD and I lost. When I bought that thing in 2003, it cost 350, but CZK - that's roughly 1/25 of current price. I will probably never ever buy that thing again...

I'm thinking about creating sticker "My other computer has a POWER9 CPU" for my laptop 🙂

OK, I'm now in the BrandMeister DMR network, ID 2300022. You can (probably) send me a message there!

Hello fellow ham radio operators! I made this: http://ok1zxs.cz/aprs-gb

Can you help me test it?

Short post about the Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" pre-release versions working on PowerPC-based hardware.

Just discovered that weather maps on my gopher do not work since January. Nobody told me, nobody noticed, including myself. Is there still a point to have it there?
