While I never had one I remember following the build page, and I was crushed when the price point was far too high for me to even consider getting one. However I did ride around with a carputer for some time before an affordable commercial head unit with CD/MP3 capability became available.

It was an off the shelf IBM desktop in the backseat, powered by an inverter, and controlled by a numeric keypad stuck to the center console with some velcro. Getting music on it required hauling the whole thing in the house, but at the time it felt pretty awesome to have pieced together a solution that worked.

My first experience with the internet was in the early 90s, when our high school computer science class went to a programming competition held at one of the state universities. While wandering through the library I came across a gopher terminal attached to the campus mainframe. It wasn't much, and at one point I thought I locked it up, but tapping through hyperlinks on that amber monochrome display felt pretty amazing to me at the time.

I've been a fan of Simple Keyboard for quite a while now. https://github.com/rkkr/simple-keyboard

I'll second this as someone who used to administer an AMI headend. This is essentially an industrial wifi access point. This device connects to the utility's operations network, and provides connectivity to smart meters in the area.

This video is almost 15 years old. Link: https://youtu.be/0yfArN-e2OU

At least the sequel is relatively new but sadly (?) doesn't include timestamps like the first. Gotta respect the hustle though.

Seems to be working for me again.

Yep, seeing that with my deck and HoloISO desktop right now. Best advice is probably to avoid restarting, and potentially switch to offline mode if you're still logged in.

I haven't played in a while, but SE always felt like more of a physics sandbox than an actual game. 'Minecraft in Space' is a far comparison. But it's shalow in that there isn't much, if any story, campaign, or real progression to it. It's fun to build in, and has a continued multiplayer fanbase. Worth wishlisting and getting on sale if you like building in Empyrion.

Thank you! I recently saw a thumbnail of this in a Feral Historian video and I was hoping to find a copy.

Seconding this advice. Install ProtonUp-Qt, run it and add the latest Proton-GE version. Restart Steam and change game compatibilty settings to use use Proton-GE.
