Hyperlink Roundup 07
This past week I read many blogs and less tech posts. Every day 90% of the articles are about AI slop and I am not interested. I deleted several tech related rss feeds from my reader and added a few more blogs and YouTube rss feeds that I found from Mastodon. I want to start reading more ebooks too, so I'm preparing myself to tackle that goal. Perhaps a future post of what I did to reach my reading routine and which device I am planning to use.
A Choose Your Own Adventure game
When I was a kid, the book bus would come to our school one day a year to sell us books. This was a big school bus converted into a library with brand new books. It was awesome to see. We received a pamphlet the week before with all the available books to fill out with our parents and bring the correct cash amount. My favourite books were the choose your own adventure where you would get different outcomes depending on the page you turned to. There were also similar books with extra code you entered into your own home computer. It was a magical time.
Here is one created by Soldier of FORTRAN and available to play in your browser or your old Macintosh.

44 Photos That Will Take You Back To The Early Years Of Computers
This brought back memories of myself with my solid wooden desk and chair typing away on my Coleco Adam. I think that moment I knew I finally found my true love for computing.
Back To The Early Years Of Computers
I really DGAF
I believe most of us are running out of capacity to care outside of our own home. We are drained with the social media garbage, the local tv news and plain stupid people around us. It drains us. I think it comes with age that we start realizing we don't need to care so much about everything in this world. Our focus needs to be on ourselves and family. Glad to hear someone else expressing their feelings about not caring and finding the peace within.
