Welcome

A time of decay and despair lurked in the eldritch and unfathomable depths of the city’s soul during the President’s reign—a tenure masked as prosperity and joy. It was a grotesque charade where dolphins, those mocking emissaries of a darker, unknown abyss, swam the river not with grace but with sinister intent. The streets and squares, seemingly alive with celebrations, were but hollow echoes of joy, filled with the cacophony of a cursed existence. The citizens, deluded in their beliefs, worshipped their leader. Yet, this infallible figure was, in truth, a harbinger of doom, leading them not to security and contentment but into a labyrinth of unspoken horrors and failures, meticulously hidden from sight. Under his rule, the city did not prosper; it withered, choked by the tendrils of an unspeakable and malevolent truth.

The First Microcomputer

The article discusses the Arma Micro Computer from 1962, which predates common references to the first microcomputer. This 20-pound, transistorized computer was designed for aerospace applications, including navigation and engine control. Despite its advanced features for the time, like a 22-bit serial architecture and a small instruction set with complex operations, it does not meet modern definitions of a microcomputer due to its use of discrete components. The computer used unique storage called transfluxors for non-destructive readouts, contributing to its reliability in aerospace environments....
