Super fun evening at @pluralistic Picks&Shovels book tour stop here in #Pittsburgh
I appreciated that it was an everybody masked event - and had a terrific if quick chat on old 🍏 computers in my office and Chemistry hacking too.
Sadly I couldn't find my old paperback of Down & Out... but Kid1 got Little Brother signed

And thanks to @pluralistic I also found out yesterday about a computer museum a short drive away - I hope you make it there soon!
And since the pic of my office in the previous toot was an older one - here's the add on there taken today - my first computer a #ZXSpectrum (needs a TV to work - yes of course I have an old CRT at home...so kids know what color a dead channel is)
And while I'm showing off old junk some disks that persist after culls (don't ask why)
✨ Thanks to this post (☝️) TIL about Large Scale Systems Museum / Museum of Applied Computer Technology!
