No problem, it is pretty cool!

Just wish the desktop version had milkdrop support like the web version but otherwise it is almost perfect!

there is also some interesting background information about the game by the creator here on their website:

I was only a teenager at the time, but even then I thought that surely smart people had been looking at this issue and coming up with solutions before Y2K was going to happen

I never understood the media hysteria, but now that I’m older I see the general media is clueless when it comes to tech so that’s probably why the ‘panic’ (and of course they can always find some ‘expert’ to claim that doomsday is coming!)

yeh, the author didn’t seem to mind his reply but would it have killed the guy to be a little more cordial with his tone?

the only general community I could find while searching is this one, but it appears to be completely empty

!vintage@lemmy.world

kinda surprised there isn’t a generic vintage type community, maybe there is one out there somewhere!

what is proper cross-posting etiquette

if you want to cross-post the same exact image to a different community there should be a link at the top of this post to cross-post (if using the desktop web ui), it sorta looks like a copy icon

but if you wanted to use a new photo then I think just creating a new post over there is probably easiest

I’ve gone ahead and subscribed to that other community, hopefully it gains some traction. I enjoy seeing old finds from yard sales, etc

Nice article!

Looks like the author has a lot of similar articles written, gonna save this page for later:

I remember seeing Frasier as a kid when it first came out and I thought it was a boring show for old people

Then I ended up watching it after recovering from surgery a few years ago and it is easily one of my favorite shows of all time
