Звоним через полстраны по dial-up модему в 2025 году

Приветствую всех! Многие из нас застали лично и всё ещё помнят «модемную» эпоху. И даже мне самому доводилось ими пользоваться, а много позже я писал про то, каково в нынешних реалиях сидеть в интернете через старый аналоговый модем. Но вот мне стало интересно: а как насчёт попробовать позвонить не через мини-АТС, а на модем в другом районе или даже в другом городе? Именно этим мы сейчас и займёмся. Итак, в сегодняшней статье проверим на практике, реально ли заставить два модема связаться друг с другом в наши дни заката эпохи медных линий. Узнаем, насколько стабильным будет соединение и будет ли оно вообще. Традиционно будет много интересного.

#WardChristiansen was one of the unkown pioneers. He, along with his friend Randy Seuss, founding the first computer #BBS in Chicago due to a snowstorm. You can read more about Ward here:

#Ward also created the #XMODEM protocol in 1977. He was interviewed for the fantastic BBS Documentary by @textfiles , and appears in it at various places, starting here: https://youtu.be/Dddbe9OuJLU?feature=shared&t=405

RIP Ward Christensen, another modest human that shaped our online lives more than we probably realise. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/10/ward-christensen-bbs-inventor-and-architect-of-our-online-age-dies-at-age-78/ #BBS #XMODEM

RIP Ward Christensen, co-founder of the first computer Bulletin Board System to go online and author of the XMODEM protocol, among other accolades.

Trying - and totally failing - to send files via #xmodem on Linux to a slightly special Z80 machine.

It's a MinZ, a 36 MHz Z180 in a tiny case. It runs CP/M, but uses a dual serial USB interface. It gives me /dev/ttyUSB0 for terminal but /dev/ttyUSB2 for xmodem transfers. It comes with patched xmodem COM files that use this second serial port. But can I get Linux to do anything but immediately disconnect?

Auf Linux nutzt man sowas wie #Minicom.
Was gibts vergleichbares bedienbar übers #Terminal (bevorzugt Git-#Bash) unter Windows mit dem zB #XModem gesprochen werden kann? 🤔

@bigzaphod When I started #BBSing in the early #1980s on my #Commodore64 the file transfer protocol choices were #XMODEM and #Punter, the latter largely exclusive to #Commodore #BBSes.

Trivia: XMODEM was invented by Ward Christensen, co-creator of the first #BBS
