hey so I recently re-discovered this site, thought I'd share it here.
basically this is a distilled archive of computer knowledge from zeens to usenet to places like the now defunct TOTSE (temple of the screeming Electron) of which I was a proud member a decade ago.
http://www.textfiles.com/directory.html
feel free to browse through it, there's tons of interesting stuff, and a lot of "lost" knowledge
my favorite is the cyberspace sub section.
it's kinda neat to see what sorts of things were being done in the 90's and early 2000's...
for example, someone managed to hook up a nintendo power glove to a serial port, and make it work with the sega master system VR glasses for visual input XD
now granted that seems quaint and archaic now thanks to oculus and such but back in 2010 that would have still been state of the art.
