SAGE!

The SAGE Endec, still manufactured until earlier this year, runs on a Z80. The Z80 still lives on in hundreds if not thousands of devices -- it's just as widespread and well supported as x86!

We use those at my job, since I'm in the broadcasting industry. Still works fine.

Babbage machine?

Too many wires.

A section of colossus, maybe?

It's da "Bombe". A Turing machine used to break the Enigma codes.

Turing was gay

facepalm

That is a well known fact. Your point?

Actually it was of polish design. The english at Bletchley Park had no clue about how to defeat enigma until the polish handed them all their notes.

What the Polish did was hand over one Enigma machine and their notes about it (and the agent was almost too late for the meeting!). They did not design the codebreaker.

This is in fact a fail modification of Firefox 2, no one should use it.

it sucks now. it was fun (in 2006 lol!)

Just installed this again for nostalgia. They should bring back the pro- oh god I should bring it back.

Here, Lolifox using the latest Firefox 3.0.11 version.

So what does it, you know... do?

It's a timer for PC muscle exercises.

The chip is a PIC, running on the internal oscillator for timing.

The whole enchilada:

NPR interview with the author:

Geez, all that work just to have the switch positions all fouled up...

What?

Several switches are in the wrong positions for descent. (The event timer is off, and should not be. The crosshair display shows hover when it should not.)

Some switches are in impossible positions. (The timer slew switches and RCS enable switches are springloaded to center.)

Talkbacks that should be green are barberpoled. (The ASCENT helium supply is green while the DESCENT helium supply is barberpoled.)

Still a pretty picture though ^_^

Holy dog, man, that's some impressive detailed knowledge of flight instrumentation right there if true.

Thought about writing the author? He may want to mark up the errors on his site.

It's because I'm part of an Apollo historical research project. I know way more than my fair share. ^_^ We have the most detailed C/SM simulation in existence right now, since NASA no longer has the Apollo training simulators. In a few months we'll surpass even those. We're running the original software with original checklists, and we're just about ready to finish Apollo 7.

It would be mean to give the guy shit, especially since the book appears to be already published, so I'll leave it alone.

proxies.

why the fuck are you stealing shit you little scumbag pirate

Try translating the site via google's translator.

No. You'll be able get the torrent, but your tracker client won't be able to connect to the tracker anyway.
