Whoa - retro computing alert! Several members of the original Commodore team, including Leonard Tramiel started blogging about the early Commodore history: https://vintagecomputerstories.blogspot.com
If you hit "more posts" a few times, it goes back to December of last year. I can't see any information about this blog, but they are updating pretty frequently. And the posts are cool late 70s homecomputing lore!

🇳🇱
Anyone out there other than me old enough to have run a 10base2 network in their home? My first computers 2 computers when I was in high school I connected together with a 10base2 with 50 ohm terminators and all that. My mom wasnt happy as I literally knocked a hole in her wall without asking her.
This was back when the internet was still fairly new so you would get on with 1200 baud modems to a BBS that would give you a piggyback onto the internet which you might be lucky to get access to for 30 - 60 minutes a day.
10base2 network card attached for prosperity.

Interesting video by
@cmuratori covering what happens to your assembly (or compiled) code in a modern CPU.
Windows 11 AMD Ryzen 15-20% performance drop and TPM requirement discussed in video. The TPM strategy was more or less predicted by @bunniestudios in the book "Hacking the Xbox" back in 2003. An opportunity to install Linux instead. #linux

Why are some whistleblowers accepted, instantly heard by congress and interviewed by mainstream media while others are imprisoned?
