8/ The most surprising interview? Shooter Jennings. Despite his fame as a singer, songwriter, producer, and son of a country music legend, Shooter has written three BBS door games since 2015.

9/ BiC also has given me a place to showcase and discuss my own creations, like the ANSI experiments I play with on my BBS. I built a system for making parallax ANSImations, and had a blast figuring out how to animate the Millennium Falcon dodging asteroids.

10/ Break Into Chat has led me down plenty of rabbit holes. My favorite was a seven-year quest to find a way to play (and finish) the Atari ST BBS game Thieves' Guild using its graphical front-end client.

11/ Paul Witte and Herb Flower, creators of Thieves Guild, sent me floppy disks from which I unearthed Witte's source code, as well as Flower's previously unreleased puzzle/platform game "Dark Fortress."

1/ Ten years ago, editors on Wikipedia began deleting articles about BBS door games. In response, I forked all the door game articles onto a brand-new website. I called it "Break Into Chat".

2/ My original goal was to preserve and expand the articles. They needed better sourcing, better writing, more screenshots. So I researched and added references. But the pickings were slim — even in their heyday, BBS door games were never covered in depth.

3/ There were so few detailed interviews or stories about BBS door games or the people who created them. I realized it was a gap I could help fill by tracking down the games' creators and interviewing them, sharing my own memories, and collecting others' thoughts.

#introduction 🧵 6/9 More begging ensued to get my parents to install another phone line. Once we had a second phone line, I ran a #BBS for a few months. BBS time was mostly about messages, #Fidonet, and games. I played Tradewars 2002, Legend of the Red Dragon, and some others any time I wasn't busy with homework. I see some strong parallels to the obsessions my kids have run through with Minecraft & Discord.

Thema Schulbereitschaft.
Auch wenn in der Überschrift noch die falsche Frage ist, danach werden im Text weitaus sinnvollere gestellt.
#FediKita #bbs
Denn es geht nicht nur um ausgefallene Schuleingangsuntersuchungen oder (fehlende) Kompetenzen für den Schulstart, sondern auch um herkunftsabhängige #Bildungschancen.

Bereit für die Schultüte? zeit.de/gesellschaft/s… via @zeitonline

@joeran hat einen super Beitrag zu den #4Ks geschrieben. Er stellt sie in den größeren Rahmen der vier Dimensionen: #Wissen, #Skills, #Charakter und #Meta-Lernen, die miteinander verflochten sind.
Ist jemand (LuL, SuS) aus #schule #bbs #sek1 #sek2 interessiert das hier zu diskutieren?

#introduction

Hi all! My name is Jeff, and I'm #softwareDeveloper and #maker in the process of relocating to #NewZealand.

My journey through social media started with Bulletin Board Systems (#BBS) & #IRC, through LiveJournal, to Facebook, an enjoyable stint in G+, back to Facebook, and now Mastodon. Ironically I never really got into Twitter, which I understand Mastadon aims to replace.

In my career I've worked on incredibly interesting projects like full scale helicopter simulators, small drone (#sUAS) control systems, and signal jamming technologies. I've worked with #C++ , #CSharp, #Python, #LabView.

But what I'm most proud of has been my time volunteering for a local charity I helped found, #MakersLocal256. This #makerspace was the first in #Alabama, has been around for over 15 years, and has survived on a "pay what you can" system. Our goal was and is to make available tools and technologies to those who either can afford it better together, or simply don't have the space for something like a gigantic #laserCutter. I've learned and taught equipment there such as #3DPrinters, #soldering, #embedded projects, #IoT, #lathes, #welding, #leatherWorking, #HamRadio and #cyberSecurity.

I've served #ML256 as both their Treasurer using systems like #GnuCash, and as a #systemsAdministrator using technologies including #Proxmox, #VMWare, #Redmine, #Owncloud, #ZoneMinder

As a hobbyist I run my own #homelab including this instance of Mastadon, #Plex, #mqtt, #proxmoxBE

My other hobbies include #cooking, with a focus on #sousVide and #cajun food, collecting #puzzleBoxes .
I consume large amounts of #Sci-Fi television, #anime, and have a weakness for paranormal teenage drama series like #vampireDiaries and now some soul rotting show called #FateWinxSaga. They're just so awful I can't stop watching.

In my youth I attended a #boardingSchool called #ASMS before Dumbledore made them cool. We had a cheerleading team for our chess team, it was baller. Our headmaster was from #NewZealand, and we plan to catch up once we get settled in.

My wife of eight years and I met in college, and has been my best friend, travel companion, taste tester, and cheerleader. She's an amazing #cosplay artist from Tennessee who has crafted #yukatas #kimonos, outfits from #animes, and so much more.
Her Londo Mallari from #Babylon5 is still the highest rated post of all time in r/Babylon5.

As her handler I end up going to many of her competitions and events, our favorite being #DragonCon . As a reward for being her personal slave, I earn cosplay points, which I save up and cash in on requests. The most memorable is when I asked to be a #sandworm from #Dune. She built a 14 meter worm in the style of a Chinese dragon. It takes eight people to pilot, has been in three parades, two with Kevin J. Anderson leading our path. She carries the 16 kilogram head, with me as her second in line. It's been featured in #MakeMagazine and has been used for a movie premier at a local theatre.

Well, that's me :) I don't intend on writing posts this long going forward, and honestly this felt like writing a CV. But hell, if you're gunna do, do it up.
