In the long-long-ago, encyclopaedias were on paper, 28 volumes, and weighed 14kg. Quite comprehensive.

Then encyclopaedias were on a CD or two, around 100g.

Before Wikipedia, everything2 was a previous example of a massively-interlinked-website. You could search and maybe turn up some details.

Or prior to google being created, you would just do a search in metacrawler.com to usually turn up some OK answers.

Hell yes. My favourite of all time. XD

Same, a Vic20 straight to IBM XT. Gutted.

At least a friend had one for 3-player IK tournaments, and North and South battles.

Seeing and playing this in '91, yeah, it was futurism up close.

1999, at the first Homelands festival in Winchester, SE of London.

She was Scottish and was there with a girlfriend. We were 4 guys from a different country, out for the night from our share-house.

We talked and I was nervous about how graceful, intelligent and demure I found her. Hung out and talked, went home our separate ways.

The next day I was at the Papillon bar-cafe with a friend and she came up out of the blue. She was distributing flyers for a gig, and placing some at the cafe. We talked and I was stunned and not confident again. Looking back, there was something there between us, but I did not initiate anything. We said goodbye with no numbers exchanged.

Out of all of London, we bumped into eachother and I didn’t read the destiny flags that were hanging around us.

I am happy now in life, but I will never forget her, how she captured my interest and made me feel that weekend. I have no idea where she is now. I hope happy and fulfilled with whichever direction life has taken her over the past 25 years.

Luanti (aka Minetest) was constructed with a Lua API that makes the core-engine easily extensible, so that today hundreds of mods and gametypes have been added by a vibrant volunteer community.

These mods have become more easily accessible with a new in-game frontend-GUI mod selector and downloader, added in the last year.

I’m currently playing through the Glitch game-mod by Wuzzy.

Firefly

The Expanse

28 Days (zombo series of movies)

Spiral (French police series)

Chefs (French restaurant series)

Numpty Physics (solve puzzles by drawing lines, physics Sim)

Powder Toy (falling sand game)

Box Stacker (add Tetris pieces to solve physics puzzles)

And I’ve been getting into the Glitch mini-game in luanti(minetest)

mathsisfun.com

has very concise explanations of maths concepts.

Weaveworld was huge when it came out. Great and Secret Show is good too.

For a quality horror experience, read the short story Dread, from The Books of Blood II collection.

I invent the 10 day week.

Kebab joint in the very centre of our million person town.

Ate it on the day before Xmas, was walking and talking again by mid Boxing Day.

Bleaugh, lie down sweats and toilet yoyo.

The place shut down 5yrs after.

This was 20yrs ago, no kebab related issues since then, all tasty. Sour cream and garlic sauce, add a single felafel too.
