#FujiNet is a WiFi Adapter for #retrocomputing and #retrogaming systems. It speaks JSON, XML, and HTTPS, so it can talk to any Internet endpoint, directly.

We use it for FujiNet 5 Card Stud, so this Apple ][ (#Apple2) has no problem speaking JSON. :)

For #525FloppyDay I chose to post a picture of a box with disks containing old a new software (as recent as 2000) for #apple2.

This box has been a bit of problem for me to read correctly and I think the problem lies that all my drives for archiving have their track 0 sensor calibrated correctly. This box of floppies have been likely written with an Apple Disk 2 - those don't have a track 0 sensor and the alignment can be all over the place.

I don't have a good plan on how to connect my Apple Disk 2 with a #greaseweazle right now, another solution could be to acquire another 40 track 5 1/4 inch drive and play with the track 0 sensor.
Another plan could be to acquire a calibration disk, so I can re-adjust my regular floppy drive I use for archiving, but these seem to be almost impossible to find. Suggestions welcome!

Bin nun in den heiligen Hallen angekommen. Die Schätze (gehütet von @toroe ) funkeln schon in der Schatzkammer, aber erstmal gleich "Jahreshauptversammlung" des @ide !

My goodness, what a powerful talk this is.

I love how the canonical file extension for old-school disk images for Apple II emulators is .DSK — its subconsciously implies that Apple II diskettes are the canonical diskettes. Everyone else: pick another file extension, this one's taken

All the Adventures reaches what might be its last "traditional" adventure of 1982 with the North Star / Apple II game Zodiac Castle.

Includes a single-path labyrinth and an omnipresent dragon that can visit any dark room.
