I did not, but it looks like it came out in the 90s and Battle Chess came out in the 80s.

It doesn't seem to say, but I think that's the MS-DOS version.

I don't know if they ever made a color Mac version. I definitely don't remember if that one was in color because I eventually got the MS-DOS version and I can't remember if they were the same.

But this is a video I can find for the Mac version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StKlUtx5tHg

Weirdly, there was a color version for the Apple IIgs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXnAcUAN0W4

Every version was different. This is the Amiga version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADcEI84wMX0

Worked great on my LC II!

 

It was like my own Millennium Falcon holo-chess, except, you know, not that cool.

Being threatened with a ban goes way too far, but your question(s) as phrased does seem very much like sealioning even if that wasn't the intention, so I can see why a moderator might think it was. Obviously, they should have clarified first.

There's also Hugo Boss.

I think this is a Ship of Theseus thing here that we're going to argue about because at what point is it just UNIX-like and not UNIX?

UNIX-like is definitely a descriptor currently used for Linux.

Even the Wikipedia entry starts that way.

So is Linux. So I guess the light blue is all other UNIX variants?

rsync isn't that fancy, but rsync is a nicer sync than rneighborsync. In fact, their whole kytchen is pretty ugly.

I just don't think the people who believed him and used his lines of argument were taken seriously either except by people who were already in their bubble and weren't going to come out.

I don't think that ever happened with Colbert, did it?

Every so often, I see a car with an InfoWars bumper sticker.

I wonder what those people will do?

 

The 25-year-old’s alleged actions in the days after the attack suggest he was not exactly a criminal mastermind. The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Council conducted a series of suspicious internet searches, for phrases like “SECGOV hack,” “telegram swap,” “how can I know for sure if I am being investigated by the FBI,” and “What are the signs you are under investigation by law enforcement or the FBI even if you have not been contacted by them.”

 

The stored data of the Internet Archive is safe and we are working on resuming services safely. This new reality requires heightened attention to cyber security and we are responding. We apologize for the impact of these library services being unavailable.

The Wayback Machine, Archive-It, scanning, and national library crawls have resumed, as well as email, blog, helpdesk, and social media communications. Our team is working around the clock across time zones to bring other services back online. In coming days more services will resume, some starting in read-only mode as full restoration will take more time.

We’re taking a cautious, deliberate approach to rebuild and strengthen our defenses. Our priority is ensuring the Internet Archive comes online stronger and more secure.

As a library community, we are seeing other cyber attacks—for instance the British Library, Seattle Public Library, Toronto Public Library, and now Calgary Public Library. We hope these attacks are not indicative of a trend.
