if aliens study our history they'll look at this decade and be like "I mean, I suppose you could think it weird they apparently had this whole religion about a plush shark from a huge furniture retailier chain with a funny name, but honestly I'm pretty sure we've all seen weirder things, and not just from humanity."
"JSON is valid!"
good for them!
ugh dolphin netplay between me and a friend worked exactly once and never again

Alan Turing bday, suicide mention
Alan Turing was born today
He was gay and neurodivergent, famous for 'Turing machine,' a model for modern/general purpose computers
he was also chemically castrated by his government for being gay (instead of prison time), and later committed suicide at 41
Rest in Power, Alan

When you're Steven Seagal on a hijacked train and need to do some hacking in a pinch, look no further than the Apple Newton
Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995) directed by Geoff Murphy
Props to the... prop department
I think this is a MessagePad 120 which had the hinges on top. Pretty sure they've modified the screen a bit
Here's a compilation of the Newton scenes (some naughty language, guns etc...)

and by attempt I mean it was S40. Great full qwertz keyboard though, plus it ran Java versions of Whatsapp and Twitter which I assume Nokia jerry-rigged together? plus there was Opera Mini which was pretty great. Yes, that is a touchscreen and no, it's not good
this was my daily driver together with an Nokia attempt-to-be-a-smartphone for at least a year
probably still good enough to read Manga on though, which is why I booted it up again
dug out my old iPad mini and wow iOS 9 wasn't good and it's even worse on 512 megs of RAM
why is Bluetooth hands-free so bad
