Happy Birthday! 🎉 Die BLUP BBS ist nun 31 Jahre online.
1995 startete alles mal mit einem alten, ausrangiertem Tower PC und einer gelben Spraydose. 31 Jahre später gibt es die ursprüngliche Hardware zwar nicht mehr, aber die Software, das Herz und die Seele der BLUP sind noch immer da. Alles ein bisschen grauer und ruhiger geworden, aber noch lange nicht tot.
Nach 31 Jahren gehört die Mailbox zu einer der letzten ihrer Art.
@thomas 2:241/7522.7 - brauchte neuen Fix, nachdem ich 1991 wg. Abschluss meinen Usenetzugang an der Uni verloren hatte.
Wusstest Du eigentlich, dass @tomjennings auch hier ist?
It was an exciting time for me too. #bbs #retrocomputing
A Commodore 64 and Zero Adult Supervision
Daily writing promptWrite about your first computer.View all responses Here’s the thing about my first computer. It didn’t coddle me. It didn’t autocomplete my thoughts or ask how I was feeling today. It sat there like a beige brick with delusions of grandeur and dared me to figure it out. It was a Commodore 64. Used. Already scarred. Already suspicious of me. Perfect. I was 13, which is exactly the right age to be given something powerful with no instructions and just enough danger […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/02/01/a-commodore-64-and-zero-adult-supervision/

I wonder what it would take to revive #bbs culture for the modern smartphone age.

We're small, but mighty! I've been working on this PETSCII BBS for the Commodore 64 while waiting for my C64Us to come in. Have met some really cool and friendly folks so far. Actively developing too. Added a Gemini protocol browser (1st iteration preview) and a fun little C64 trivia game. More to come! Join us w/ your PETSCII terminal client of choice:

"Dialed" into the Mac Studio wirelessly across the room for some IRCing on old hardware, here as the snow falls. ❄️
I had to modify the plist and shell config scripts I'd setup on the Mac since "upgrading" to macOS 26 Tahoe to get this working without gripes in the terminal.
