04:28 schestowitz; <p>Ill admit, I use retrocomputers in exceeding boring ways. Everyone I watch and read restores these machines as a means to play games, and its kind of assumed everyone does. I mostly use them to tinker and explore how legacy word processors, spreadsheets, databases, and Pascal environments worked (and multimedia CD-ROMs, in the case of my old PCs). Before we standardised on what a lot of w

04:46 schestowitz; <p>Lets step back into the Thunderbird Time Machine and teleport ourselves back to December 2009. If you were on the bleeding edge, maybe you were upgrading your computer to the newly released Windows 7 (or finally getting around to checking out Ubuntu 9.0 Karmic Koala.) Perhaps you were pouring all your free time into Valves ridiculously fun team-based survival shooter Left 4 Dead 2. And mayb
04:46 schestowitz; e, just maybe, you were eagerly anticipating installing Thunderbird 3.0 especially since it had been a lengthy two years since Thunderbird 2.0 had launched. </p>
04:46 schestowitz; <p> What happened during those two years? The Thunderbird developer community and Mozilla Messaging clearly stayed busy and productive. Thunderbird 3.0 introduced several new feature milestones! </p>

08:30 schestowitz; <p>Worried about the geopolitical consequences, and obsessed with controlling information about its activities, the CIA came up with a novel way to keep the mission secret without telling an all-out lie. The agency decided it would refuse to confirm or deny whether records about the Glomar Explorers mission existed, despite the mounting public evidence that they did. And so the Glomar response wa
