I write about the past, present, and future of technology across three sites. imapenguin.com explores retro computing and programming fundamentals, milkcrunch.com covers modern software development and engineering culture, and evadot.com examines commercial spaceflight and the new space movement.

- Vintage computer commercial for today
- Brush clearing day 2. Colorful PPE gives my location away.

- Not by AI
- 8 bit clusters
- Current Mood
