    :jig: While moving last weekend, I found my Star Trek Font Packs, from 1993. I have now copied the content of the 3.5" floppies to a safer place. :jig:

          You have reminded me to go through all my old cassette tapes and scrape off every bit I can find on them. The tapes are now about 40 years old and were not the highest quality to begin with. Despite that, most programs still can be loaded and those that don't usually can be recovered.

          The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
          This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

            I wonder what would happen if you fed one into a Universal Turing Machine.

              I have also being doing a bit of a clear out prior to a (n expected/hoped for) move and found loads of 3.5 floppies. I have also fortunately found my 3.5 external floppy drive ("acquired*) ... wondering what I am actually going to find on disks labelled "Tools" :-O

                The same that happens when you throw some bytes at any processor: It would execute whatever it finds, but only in one specific environment, with one specific processor and loaded at the right memory address you will get the intended results.

                    What about a Finite Improbability Drive?

                      What no pic? You can't tease us like that without proof.

                          Sweet. I'll have to make one, but I think I have enough to actually make a workstation divider. If not then I'll make a computer tower case. That might be cool.

                            Hahaha thats a "Good Idea"!! However, you need to make sure that the tower/divider is durable.. (my pen holder is a bit shaky) :doh: Idea: You can join 3 floppies together to make a thick brick and then you can join these bricks together (just like Lego blocks) and construct your master piece... :) Do share your invention!!!
