News You Can Bruise for 2007 October 25

Hi. Apparently having a job takes up most of your day. Here are some random links from browser tabs. These links look cool but I haven't actually done much with them.

• Dwarf Fortress approaches a huge new release that apparently includes 3D caves, even more mechanism building, and whales.
• Robert Hooke's minutes from the Royal Society. Post-VP I'm taking everything written in archaic English as broadly as possible, like "Orderd tht mr Bond & the Rest try the variation of the needle at white hall."
• CFDG is like a hipper Logo.
• I can't play these Windows games but they look fun.
• The first in a series: A History of Gaming Platforms: The Commodore 64
