This is funny because I'm actually building (for fun only) a BBS-over-tcp-socket for use with my C64's WiFi modem. Yesterday I got a "search engine" going and transferred some game…

Once I had a cop point a speed gun on me when I rode in deep outskirts of Poland on a road limited to 30kmh. I think he was just joking and passing time seeing that in the hours I …
