The Time Bandits Episode: The Dutchess Mall, Movies 4, Suburbia Boring/Excellence, Chaotic Universe, Surpreme Being, Great Evil, Foundations, Portals of BBSes, Robbery of Textfiles, Before It's All Ruined. A short meditation on one of my favorite films, Time Bandits (1981) before a remake arrives.

The TEXTFILES.COM Machine Good Times Episode: A Moment of Reflection, A Previous Moment of Darkness, The Quarter Century of Hosting, A Shifting Window, The Role TEXTFILES.COM Has Played, ARCHIVE.ORG vs. TEXTFILES.COM, a Heartfelt Thank You. Recognition of how the TEXTFILES.COM replacement machine is working so well, and an additional recognition of the context of a hosted machine existing so many years across time in one of the most shaky mediums imaginable.

The Return of TEXTFILES.COM Episode: A Problem Worse Than Thought, Remote Work, Saint Spencer, I Was Once Spencer, Replacing The Machine, The Overkill Beast, The Specs, Fixes and Improvements, SCENE.ORG, Bitsavers, Stone Oakvalley, A New Day for TEXTFILES.COM, Forgotten Love, A Bright Future. It turned out the problem with the TEXTFILES.COM was a bit more than I expected, but luckily, it all got fixed in the end. Here's the process and the progress, and what got better. TEXTFILES.COM is at http://www.textfiles.com.

The TEXTFILES.COM Downtime Episode: A Strange Voicemail, E-mails, Downtime!, Considering Loss, Host Loyalty, A Simple Job, Bringing it Back, a Momentary Skip, The Meaning of It All. Plus: Ignore the Letters An article on the occasion of the unexpected downtime of TEXTFILES.COM. Here is an interesting situation for the Patreon backers of the podcast - the machine is actually still down. After editing the episode, I discovered catastrophic disk errors and while the machine can come "back", the disk issues cause it all to come down a few hours later, so a replacement has been ordered and the sites are all down. They'll be back, but I guess enjoy the fact you heard this episode in the twilight zone before I set up the new server. Thanks again for everything.

The Ultimate BBS List Episode: 20 Years of The BBS List, What Got Me Started, The Story Everyone Knows, The Story Less People Know, The Contraption Inside, 1982 not 1983, Philosophy of Complication, Where to Go From Here, The BBS List Forever. An episode about the BBS List collection at BBSLIST.TEXTFILES.COM and what got me going on it. I mentioned a couple other nice information sites. GOT PAPERS? Is the demoscene letter collection. It's at: https://gotpapers.scene.org/ The Sixteen Colors collection of ANSI art is here: https://16colo.rs/ 

Muss man als Frontend-Entwickler jeden Trend kennen und jede Browser-API/alle Frameworks beherrschen? Neben einer Vorstellung der heißesten WebGL und WebAssembly Demos gehen wir der Frage nach, ob man schon mal einen Shader programmiert haben muss und ob wir statt Textfiles in Zukunft nur noch Bytecode durchs Netz ballern. Dazu zeigen wir, wie man mit CSS Text nach einer bestimmten Anzahl Zeilen abschneiden kann und empfehlen das Tool der Tools. Achja und Jingles, wir haben Jingles!

The Amateur Episode: Question Not Question, Stumbling into Librarian, Emerson College, Zero Sum Games, The Early Web, TEXTFILES.COM as Library, Your Amateur Moment. I've tried to take a (minor) sour moment and turn it into something positive. I also got to give some thoughts on some generalized criticisms that are usually subtweeted in my direction, although how much this episode moves the needle, I'll likely never know. The presentation, by the way, was a lot of fun and I got to meet some really great folks who I'd never had the chance to meet. I found out about some long-memory examples held up in in the professional spheres, and I hope to research those to have what other lessons could have learned. Also, lunch was amazing and someone handed me a stack of hard drives. Also, now you know why "Rank Amateur" is in my twitter bio!

The Internet Archive Grab Bag: Another Week Online, The Archive Building, The Verifications, The Ups and Downs, The Narrative, Patreon Fail, PODCAST.TEXTFILES.COM, Building Pride and Love, Teeth, Thanks. Recorded on the office floor of the Internet Archive, I went for a grab bag of random thoughts, so this episode is very, very loose. I also didn't have my pop shield out here, so apologies to your speakers. I mention the Patreon stupid and also offer PODCAST.TEXTFILES.COM as the secure central information and donation vector for this podcast going forward. It has been quite the ride watching support drop and return for this Patreon, and I don't need more uncertainty in my life, thanks. Opinion seems to float that people would like an interview show or similar, but I'd probably make it a bonus, because it would be different than this format, and notably longer. We'll see when that happens, but it's on my mind. Next episodes will be much less miscellaneous, but it felt great to talk about it all. Thanks for riding along.

Jason Scott Talks His Way Out Of It: A weekly podcast series about stories, technology, nostalgia, wonder, and more stores. Hosted by Jason Scott of TEXTFILES.COM. The Dark Episode: Applejack, Rage, A Full Mailbox, Getting Better, The Best Life, Debt Unchained.   Like, I bet, most everyone out there, not every part of my life has been 100% great. I decided to just pack all that negativity (especially teenage years) into one episode so we can move on to more fun stories. This was definitely a hard episode to record and a harder one to shape into a cohesive whole. I'm glad I did it, but I look forward to more about beeps, boops and laughter.

On this week’s episode of Misconceptions, host Jeff Rubin talks to TextFiles.com’s Jason Scott about preserving an essential piece of Internet history.

Most gamers today probably don't remember that for a while in the 1980s the best-selling, most critically acclaimed computer games didn't have any graphics at all. They were text adventures and were some of the most innovative and challenging forms of entertainment ever conceived. Historian and documentary filmmaker Jason Scott has spent the last four years interviewing the men and women who created these games. The result is Get Lamp, a fascinating documentary about the history of these games-from the original Adventure, through the rise and fall of Infocom, and up to today's interactive fiction scene.   Jason Scott is the curator of TextFiles.com and is also the man behind BBS: The Documentary, a look at the computer bulletin board systems that pre-date mass usage of the internet. He's a regular speaker at hacker and technology conferences and his cat has well over a million followers on Twitter. Really.
