&lt;p&gt;After work today, I spent about five hours trying to connect my Apple II to work as a terminal for my laptop. I was generally following the tutorial &lt;a href="http://pdw.weinstein.org/2007/06/apple-hacking-for-fun-and-profit.html"&gt;here,&lt;/a&gt; but the general pitfalls of working with old computers and a limited supply of 5.25-inch floppies meant that some improvisation was necessary.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Still, after several failed attempts, I got a terminal up and ran TTYtter, a command-line Twitter client written in perl. Ended up spending a while reading tweets on that gorgeous green screen. I kinda love this setup.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/47606499430</link><guid>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/47606499430</guid><pubDate>Wed, 10 Apr 2013 00:12:20 -0700</pubDate><category>apple</category><category>vintage</category><category>twitter</category><category>tech</category><category>computer</category><category>terminal</category><category>unix</category><category>old</category><category>mac</category><category>green</category><category>command line</category><category>os x</category><category>vintage computer</category><category>classic</category></item><item><title>I have one of these coming on Thursday, after wanting one for...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d2e00cd29e6046cfeff2bf6d1b998598/tumblr_mh70an4edh1qa0mhvo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have one of these coming on Thursday, after wanting one for around four years.

The current eruption has been ongoing since January, 1983, and the area where you see the lava in the first two photos was once a highway going around the Big Island of Hawaii. It’s since been covered in several feet of lava.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/46195034683</link><guid>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/46195034683</guid><pubDate>Sun, 24 Mar 2013 14:40:52 -0700</pubDate><category>hawaii</category><category>volcano</category><category>fire</category><category>heat</category><category>tropical</category><category>mordor</category><category>earth</category><category>nature</category><category>eruption</category><category>land</category><category>creation</category><category>destruction</category><category>lava</category><category>nikon</category><category>d600</category><category>vacation</category><category>island</category><category>big island</category><category>national park</category><category>volcanoes</category><category>usa</category><category>america</category></item><item><title>"For readers interested in learning more about how not to be labeled as registered sex offenders, a..."</title><description>“&lt;p&gt;For readers interested in learning more about how not to be labeled as registered sex offenders, a good first step is not to rape unconscious women, no matter how good your grades are. Regardless of the strength of your GPA (weighted or unweighted), if you commit rape, there is a possibility you may someday be convicted of a sex crime. This is because of your decision to commit a sex crime instead of going for a walk, or reading a book by Cormac McCarthy. Your ability to perform calculus or play football is generally not taken into consideration in a court of law. Should you prefer to be known as “Good student and excellent football player Trent Mays” rather than “Convicted sex offender Trent Mays,” try stressing the studying and tackling and giving the sex crimes a miss altogether.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;—Mallory Ortberg, on Gawker&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mallory Ortberg, laying waste to fools on &lt;a href="http://gawker.com/5991003/cnn-reports-on-the-promising-future-of-the-steubenville-rapists-who-are-very-good-students"&gt;GAWKER&lt;/a&gt;, today, regarding CNN’s offensively lovey-dovey coverage of the two high school football stars who were convicted on Sunday of sexually assaulting a blacked-out drunk 16 year old girl from a neighboring town at a party, and then sharing pictures of her on the internet. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;More details &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/18/us/teenagers-found-guilty-in-rape-in-steubenville-ohio.html?_r=0"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think it’s reasonable to say that, given the football culture of Steubenville, OH and the notorious difficulty of proving sexual assault even when the victim REMEMBERS WHAT HAPPENED, it is likely that what these jocks did to this other human would have become simply a dark part of Steubenville high school folklore, were it not for the digital trail of photos, tweets, and texts that the bystanders and assaulters themselves put out into the world. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SO THANK YOU, NERDS, FOR INVENTING SOCIAL MEDIA. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And thank you, Mallory and Manhattan snark-media for reminding some people—including CNN, apparently—what personal responsibility actually means. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That is all. &lt;/p&gt; (via &lt;a href="http://www.johnhodgman.com/" class="tumblr_blog"&gt;areasofmyexpertise&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/45738710700</link><guid>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/45738710700</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 Mar 2013 22:35:24 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>Dolphin Jump on Flickr.

&lt;p&gt;‎&lt;a href="http://emilione.tumblr.com"&gt;Emily&lt;/a&gt; and I went on a whale watching trip today, and a school of like 30 dolphins came up to our boat and started swimming around. It was pretty incredible. Got this photo almost by accident, when the dolphin started jumping, I just barely had the time to look through the finder and compose…&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/45736801265</link><guid>http://estenh.tumblr.com/post/45736801265</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 Mar 2013 21:58:00 -0700</pubDate><category>kona</category><category>hawaii</category><category>dolphin</category><category>water</category><category>fish</category><category>ocean</category><category>wildlife</category><category>animal</category><category>jump</category><category>grace</category><category>beauty</category><category>natural</category><category>blue</category><category>gray</category><category>marine</category><category>boat</category><category>sea</category><category>pacific</category><category>wave</category><category>splash</category><category>summer</category><category>earth</category><category>nature</category><category>life</category></item></channel></rss>
