<p>I want to give an update about my project <a href="/tags/tinybbs/" rel="tag">#TinyBBS</a>, a <a href="/tags/meshtastic/" rel="tag">#Meshtastic</a> <a href="/tags/bbs/" rel="tag">#BBS</a> that runs on the meshtastic firmware itself without an rpi. It is now NRF52 based. The NRF is a more lightweight and efficient.<br>The BBS has Email, bulletins, daily wordle, a pretty rich LORD style multiplayer RPG, survival skills, chess, QSLboard, and Airplane QSL Board. The BBS is about 70KB and I do a neat party trick to store knowledge files like a full 12k <a href="/tags/wordle/" rel="tag">#wordle</a> dictionary on the external flash.</p><p><a href="https://github.com/GoatsAndMonkeys/TinyBBS" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="github.com/GoatsAndMonkeys/TinyBBS"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/GoatsAndMonkeys/Tin</span><span class="invisible">yBBS</span></a></p>
![The rear cover of the book, showing a Carmen Sandiego-style letter from the ACME Detective agency. The letter has a picture of a spazzing out kid wearing a Just Do It sweater.
The letter reads:
ACME Detective Agency
Dear Detective #0294,
As discussed, I have enclosed a hardcopy of VGA256's journals discussed at the departmental briefing. The journal entries are chronological, and document the suspect's computing and gaming activities from the early 1980s to late 1990s - his childhood and adolescent years.
Each vignette is an introspection into the suspect's self-described obsessions, including but not limited to:
* IBM PC, Amiga, Apple ][, Macintosh, Tandy
* MS-DOS, MacOS, Windows 3.1 & 95, UNIX
* NES, GameBoy, Sega Genesis, TI-85
* Modems, BBSes, CompuServe, Prodigy, ISPs
* Warez, FTP, Usenet, IRC, Shell Accounts
* Origin Systems, LucasArts, and Sierra On-Line
... and so on. The stories are a treasure trove of immoral and illicit activities that made him the dysfunctional adult he is now. I hope these will be of value in building your dossier on this delinquent.
I expect a report on my desk by Friday.
