News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I wanted to do the same thing but not deal with too many old parts. There are a bunch of single board computers with clone x86 pentium-ish cpus available all on a single ISA card, so I plugged one into ISA backplane, added a vintage VGA and SB card, and wrote a TSR that uses one of the watchdog timers on the board to slow it down a bunch so I could play Wing Commander II again. It’s a fun and not terribly expensive weekend project.

I've noticed after first signing up around April that whatever scanner they're using can see through the envelope and you can pretty clearly read at least part of the contents for a standard folded letter, but at some point later in the year the contrast of the images was changed and it wasn't as common to see it anymore. Most of my mail is junk, but I can only imagine the kinds of opportunity that capability at scale presents.
