What technologies do you use?
- RalfWausE 5y agoMy current setup: * Atari ST 520 with 4 MB RAM * Floppy Drive and Gotek (a Floppy drive "emulator" that uses USB Sticks to store Floppy images) * Ultrasatan (SD Cards as Harddrive) * some other accessories (Printer, Scanner) that makes life more productive For mobile work i use an Atari Portfolio, which turned out to be a real handy tool if your work involves often to hook up to a serial console of industrial machinery. To exchange data with friends: Just pack everything you want to share on a USB Stick and send it via DHL or - better - just drive over and hand it out. And yes, i have an "modern" PC too, but this is only used for the unimportant stuff (watching youtube, unimportant internet usage... lets call it "noise generation") My friends and i are experimenting with setting up a private Dial-In BBS. It IS still possible to use a Modem over a VoIP line, so... it may be unencrypted, but the few weirdos who uses such communication vectors may be to unimportant and to far under the radar for "Saurons Eye" of the governments to monitor...

- RalfWausE 5y agoSorry, i forgot to mention that i also have a Netusbee (a Ethernet / USB Card for the ROM-Port of the ST), so its no big deal to write directly to USB Sticks.

- RalfWausE 5y agoThe friends who are as paranoid / weird as i am have either no internet or distict devices to use on the net and other devices that will never be connected to the net.
