Today's fun fact: Browsing the web on an Archimedes (real hardware, not emulated) with ArcWeb is very much still possible! (Bonus hat-tip to @ActionRetro1 for creating FrogFind to make pages usable on old systems!)

Trying to get away from the silliness of Twitter/X/whatever it's called this week? Good news: We're now available on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/riscos… And, of course, we're also on Mastodon: mastodon.social/@riscos

Today marks two years since the Cloverleaf Kickstarter ended with €11,034 raised. 🎂 Most of the rewards remain unfulfilled and there's been no updates in months. 🤔 Seems a high price for a reskinned RO Direct and a filer app that's expensive and doesn't work very well. 💸

Occasionally, the ROOL forum users remind us why we don't bother with the forum. One thread has a suggestion that because RISC OS is modular, the GPL is irrelevant. It then devolves into arguments about how the GPL is bad becuase they can't circumvent it to steal code they want.

The makers of @AppleTVPlus' new Tetris film clearly have good taste in microcomputers. Could have picked a slightly less yellowed one, though...
