Microsoft is making the original Zork I, Zork II, and Zork III games open-source today. Microsoft, Xbox, and Activision have teamed up to preserve the clever Z-Machine engine that powered the Zork games and allow others to learn from it https://t.co/7o78aacGwQ
@altonbrown what's in the Iron Chef's pantry? I've never seen an official list for the Japanese show or any of the others, but many of us want to have the iron chef's pantry.
🚨I lost access to ALL of my crypto keys in a bank safety deposit box. A cautionary tale. 🚨
"Your keys, your crypto"—we all know the saying. But where do you actually store your keys? Off-premise and secure, right? So I did what seemed safest: a @usbank safety deposit box. Massive 3-foot steel vault. Fireproof. Practically bombproof. What could go wrong?
Then, the California fires happened. I lost my house and inside my Trezor, my Ledgers. And the bank, about a mile away, took damage too. But even if the bank burned down, the vault would be fine, right? Good news: it was. My assets were intact. Bad news: in a disaster, everything stops. Power down. Roads closed. No access to the bank.
Now here’s where it gets tricky: I know my keys are safe, but when can I access them?
Calling @usbank support = dead end. Calling the branch? Closed. A neighboring branch tells me, "Local safety deposit boxes are governed by the branch, not the global bank." So how do I contact the branch manager? "You have to call the bank." But the bank is closed. "Sorry, we can’t help you."
After several calls, I finally get this: "At some point, we’ll move your box to another branch. But we don’t know when." Wait… they’re moving my hardware wallets, without me, to some undisclosed location? "Yes." Not exactly the security I was looking for.
This isn’t a sob story—I’m fine, thanks to holding assets on @coinbase (exactly for this reason). But it’s a lesson worth sharing. Years ago, when I worked at the DOE (Nevada Test Site), we studied where to store nuclear waste. Nevada won—no earthquakes, no disasters.
My advice? Next time you’re in Vegas, open a second safety deposit box as a redundant backup. Or consider offline custodial solutions like @coinbase. Even the best security plan has failure points. Be ready. 🔥🙏 cc: @brian_armstrong
@altonbrown a cooking show but the challenges are based on dietary restrictions, allergies, popular diets. Provides a challenge and a learning opportunity vs just ingredient is now a processed food. 🖤✌️
Guess what's back.
Yes, https://t.co/pvwAEWBN0Z and https://t.co/lmq8xJV8dv are back, as well as https://t.co/wPEvAlOiJE (Wayback Machine) and all those amazing items.
Some of the features are not up yet, but rest assured we're working on it and our tired devs will prevail.
