From Ireland with love! Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. More europlus Census Info! 11 November, 2016. OK, so this is too late to count towards my Retrochallenge entry, given that October is so well and truly over, but I have a little bit of extra info for my europlus census. This is an object lesson in revisiting assumptions, or at least periodically checking on things you were told when your knowledge base meant you took that information on face value. And noticed the (not so) minor ...

WOzFest 5¼" Recap | europlus

http://apple2.europlus.zone/community/wozfest-5-25in-recap

From Ireland with love! Skip to primary content. 21 November, 2016. Well, WOzFest 5 seems to have been a successful last hurrah for my Apple ][ events this year, and a great celebration of the 5 floppy disk. Including myself, we had 12 attendees, which I think is a good size for these gatherings. The Man Cave was not bursting at the seams the way it did for WOzFest / /. I made a special numbered label for them, check out the WOzFest 5 Photo Galleries. Post for the pics. 4am’s cracks are clean , meaning t...

It All Starts with a Single Step: June 2005

It All Starts with a Single Step. Tuesday, June 28, 2005. Http:/ chooyuclimbforacause.blogspot.com. Http:/ experiencenepal2005.blogspot.com. Posted by John @ 9:13 PM. Prep, for the trek, just do long walk exercise with 10kg backpack (but you'll only carry 4-5kg there). 4-6 hrs. Ako I do high-way walking :) so I can cover long distances. running can help cardio, as well as long swimming. Biking is better kasi longer (4-8hr range). Best is hiking around Singapore ;) habaan nyo nalang. 10km run twice a week.

It All Starts with a Single Step: September 2005

http://roadtoeverest.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html

It All Starts with a Single Step. Thursday, September 01, 2005. The rest as they say, is history. It took us one day to get down to Lama, another day to get back to Syabrubesi, and yet another with a long jeep ride back to KTM. And for those who are wondering, the climb down was just as hard as the climb up. There's nothing like checking-in to a 5-star hotel after a gruelling 10-day trek. This trip was an incredible and wonderful experience. Would I do the same thing again? Posted by John @ 11:28 AM.

It All Starts with a Single Step: August 2005

http://roadtoeverest.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html

It All Starts with a Single Step. Sunday, August 28, 2005. I woke up at 12 midnight with a thumping headache. heart rate was at 15 bp10s - my poor heart! It must have been slaving away all night. I stayed up for another hour or so to try and get it under control. I think it was at this point that I told Romy and LA that "I now officially feel like shit". Doesn't it make you wonder why these mountaineers keep climbing mountains? Too bad I didn't have a camera. Ha! Posted by John @ 11:03 AM. Having stocked...

From Ireland with love! Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Thoughts on Book Preservation. 28 February, 2017. I’ve been giving lots of time recently to thinking about the preservation of retrocomputer-related print media, such as books, manuals, etc. These thoughts have primarily revolved around destructive vs. non-destructive digitisation of these items, and how those digitisation methods fit into the broader sphere of preservation in retrocomputing. And saddle-stitched items to remove t...
