Hello fellow #floppy fans! Through some fiddling and optimisation I've freed up about 180KB of space on http://floppy.museum and need something to fill it with.

Since my brain is pretty much empty at the moment, I would be very grateful for any ideas the Fediverse could offer. Some ground rules:

  • It needs to fit in the space given (duh!)
  • It needs to be relevant to floppies and/or #retrocomputing
  • It can be software (yet another service), in which case it must run under #MSDOS on a 286, and should have moderate memory requirements (some EMS and XMS is OK, but at most 380KB conventional..)
  • It can be art (but don't expect me to create any, so the license must permit this usage)
  • Should not require modern browsers of hardware to access/enjoy

Ideas floated so far:

  • Gopher server (problem: how to convert html to gopher pages; yes I've tried, no it's not easy)
  • Rmenu (a telnet server allowing running of commands on the machine)
  • Samantha Fox GIFs

Spread the word and give me ideas! The sillier the better!

hellooo fedi!!!

i am overdue for an #introduction:

i am a transfem artist based in #adelaide, kaurna yerta and have a background in #gamedev, specifically #virtualreality. i cant stop thinking about #transreality experiences, #pervasivegames, and other transmedia storytelling ( #ARGs! ), but most of my artistic practice would be in what i would more broadly call participatory #performanceart

i love #opensource, #diy (as in punk), #openscience, and building and pulling apart systems!!

@are0h spot on analysis. #PerformanceArt. I hope that while some of these Facebook boomers got out over their comfort zone yesterday they met some folks who will radicalize them in small ways that will take hold and lead to real change for EVERYONE. But a lot of this still has a very milquetoast "Not In My Back Yard" feel that says "I don't see color, but I don't align with you cus you're poor" and that's not gonna lead to meaningful action

@memeorandum they are NEVER GOING TO PUT AOC OR BERNIE ON A PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT. They WILL use them to try to coopt the left into falling in line with the Democratic party. It's all an attempt to prove that the party is not just the left hand side of the fascist one party state. It's all #PerformanceArt it's all crap. Don't believe it. They'll run thru the primaries but be forced to capitulate and endorse some capitalist goon for the actual ticket. We've seen this all before
