GlobalTalk Special - O Bolo Mio (1995)
Manage episode 408127941 series 2423454
In Bolo’s world, players form alliances, pilot tanks and command little green men.
Original text by Steve Silberman.
GlobalTalk Overview, or how to run AppleTalk over TCP/IP around the world. Gursharan Sidhu quote at the end of this episode: “It worked across very large multi-segment networks… Apple’s own corporate network [for example]. You could print on a printer in Sweden from Cupertino, and all those constructs were there [in the 1980s], on shipping products, not in a lab.”
GlobalTalk hijinks: the initial hard disk image was infected with nVIR A, an AppleTalk zone named “KennyLoginsDangerZone”, “World’s Fastest ImageWriter”, “We’ve been trying to reach you”, heresy, and of course people started playing network Spectre before I finished production of this episode.
Watch things unfold in realtime: search for #globaltalk anywhere(?) in the fediverse.
Stuart Cheshire talks about DNS-SD, a.k.a. Zeroconf, a.k.a. Rendezvous, a.k.a. Bonjour, with introduction by AppleTalk architect Gurshsran Sidhu! The same thing at Google with terrible audio, but without Microsoft.
Stuart Cheshire’s list of Bolo links from the mid-1990s. Naturally they’re all dead, but archive.org has you covered in most cases.
Ladmo, the Bolo brain that impressed all your nerd friends.
“Acorn: A World In Pixels”, a book covering BBC Micro games, documents some early Bolo history.
There are, as of this writing, only two Macintosh Bolo videos on YouTube. You should fix that.
Avie Tevanian on Apple-versus-NeXT snobbery, and motivating engineers to improve TCP/IP usability.
