Your book looks like it will be fascinating! I ordered through bookshop.org since I already have an account, but do you have a preferred retailer for others who might want to buy it?

I read your book years ago, previously knowing nothing about PLATO. Loved it, couldn't put it down. Thanks for writing that. I learned so much about a really interesting part of online history, and I still think about your book frequently. It's one that really stuck with me.

Before LCDs won the race to price affordability, there were many competing novel approaches to display technology. Many engineering teams were based in the south bay but they all lost out to LCDs which won out by being good enough at the time at a price people could afford. Lots were vying for government contracts (this was a time when Japan "owned" compact display technologies.) Obviously they all lost out to LCDs and derivatives.

This would be right up my alley! Have you got a preferred store/link to purchase?

People are creating agents that get pirated PDF copies of books and them make articles out of paraphrasing entire chapters to generate youtube AI slop videos and SEO slop blogs.

Sorry to hear that. So disappointed in the AI companies for making no serious efforts towards transparency for the citation of works and prior art.

Star Trek: TNG uses one of those displays to great effect. Interactive mini-games, great 1-bit graphics, really clear instructions and directives. It makes for a great game.

Me too, I have a 15 year old Panasonic 60” that I’m still daily driving until the proverbial wheels fall off. I’m not looking forward to tv shopping in the smart-garbage-infested marketplace of today…

I have a 20-year-old 46" Panasonic plasma TV that still works great. My favorite thing about it is the perfect picture no matter the viewing angle. I was reluctant to buy a new TV for years because for many LED TVs, the picture faded as soon as you move away from being directly in front of the TV.

I have a 50" Panasonic plasma tv too as my bedroom TV. It's going to outlast my 2018 Samsung Frame TV that's having some type of backlight failure

I have one that I got from the free area of my old building. Unfortunately, it stopped taking HDMI input so its basically useless.

Yeah, I had a Panasonic plasma too the picture was so much better (well in many ways at least) than the new generation. It seemed a lot more "analog" for lack of a better term.

Computer case windows cause hf interference in the ionosphere?

I was surprised to learn this just now.

I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the powers that be, so fond of censorship and control, actually think making HF amateur radio unusable is a nice outcome.
