[Перевод] Всё о компьютерах в фильме «Парк юрского периода»
Рассказав недавно историю про «Парк юрского периода», я захотел пересмотреть этот фильм снова. Наверно, я уже видел его раз десять. На этот раз я решил изучить все компьютеры и ПО из этого фильма.

RE: https://chaos.social/@Natanox/116630882386828954
lol I had a 3dfx card before nvidia ever *made* a gpu. I believe Voodoo cards were the first 3D graphics accelerators as we think of them today, at least for PCs[1].
I seem to recall that *maybe* nvidia coined the term GPU? I know they weren’t called that at the start.

CW: meme, Nvidia, historical revisionism for profit
I can hardly put in words how much I hate these dirtbags by now.
I hope Nvidia crashes and burns and Jensen gets hit by the blast. The situation for consumer hardware can hardly get worse anyway, the US economy won't survive the #AI collaps anyway.
Worst thing is how their slopmachines will pick this line up and regurgitate it as supposed truth now.

Another day, another 30 year old computer getting in on the IPv6 action. This time it's an SGI O2 running IRIX 6.5.
It only took me a few hours to setup a network installation server for the software and remember how to use
instand find the rightsystunebut hey, now we're golden. :sgi:(Install
eoe.sw.ipv6, reboot,systune ip6_enable 1, reboot) -

I got bored of trying to make AppleTalk sing and dance on Windows NT and 2000 so I switched to an OS with a good native implementation: IRIX. :sgi:

This was a delightful read, tech is still cool from time to time, if you know where to look and no money is involved.
Which is another way of saying, if you have some spare time you could also spend your evening reading a blog post about decompiling Silicon Graphics' PROMs. This is fedi's bread and butter.

Does anyone else remember wearing one of these in the early to mid 90s?
I only got to wear one once, at Epcot Center. I got the chance to explore some Egyptian tomb and it got me hooked on VR ever since.

"ps. m88k has been the most worthwhile example, since some insane parts
of that architecture permits Miod to find a MI bug weekly."I just love that quote.

Silicon Graphics defined high-performance computing for visual effects and 3D graphics in the 90s. Their workstations powered CGI in Jurassic Park and Terminator 2, and they helped pioneer OpenGL, still a standard in graphics today.
Now barely a memory, only its website survives; 1 in a Trillion on the #WaybackMachine ⤵️

And now I wonder how hard it could be to patch a 68K silicon graphics IRIS 3000 to run classic mac os. I doubt I'll have time in my lifetime to look into that, but still making QuickDraw work with a bitplane graphic adapter would be interesting…
