What games do you play? Are there multiple ones going on? It is crazy to me that you not only have that many friends free to visit at the same time, but also that they're all interested in PC gaming. All while having kids (or at least

Love it. I wonder if they could have made the disk support work better by producing an interposer board to turn the (much simpler) Apple Disk II drive into a 1541, rather than butchering a 1541 to go the opposite way. Adrian Black found tha

> The Xbox broke into the mainstream by being able to connect four of them together to have 16 people playing games together under one roof tbh I never knew about that. I always assumed it was Halo that drove those early sales.

Not only is the g terrible, but the lower case a has these thin lines where the circular part meets the vertical bar, that are at odds with the way other letters look.

Get a Greaseweazle and that floppy drive will work on any modern computer (macOS, Windows, Linux). I've been backing up floppies from a disorganized retro PC collection I bought, and almost all of them still work.

The US sets the price it pays for Canadian oil, a discount from the market price. I don't know about timber, but the US maple syrup industry is healthy, just unable to keep up with demand. I think that's a consequence of geography
