Photosensitivity warning: near the end (from about 8:50) the picture jitters, flickers, changes colour and rolls, which may affect viewers with photosensitive epilepsy. guest@maria:~$ ./terminal_troubles --about TERMINAL TROUBLES v1.0 - ABYSMAL GAMES A new demo for the Atari 7800 256K cartridge + 16K RAM / POKEY sound (TIA fallback) Self-running: no controls, it loops [ OK ] Started one very bad day. guest@maria:~$ cat README chris can't log in. Twice. So: guest. The fortune says: a wonderful day. He starts his music. It gets killed. Dumped by email. Caps lock. Garbage. A fire, mono, then in colour. 1337 errors, 42 warnings, 0 hope. A gremlin gets him in the dungeon. The printer may be on fire. The BBS SysOp kicks him off. rm -rf with one stray space. A virus. sudo says no. He gives up and shuts down. The machine dies on the way down. Then the same day starts again. guest@maria:~$ cat CHAPTERS 0:00 Power-on, the BIOS 0:12 Boot: disk errors, fsck (probably ok) 0:22 Login incorrect, login incorrect, guest 0:45 The music player and its live spectrum 1:00 Mail: dumped by email 1:35 Caps lock, a garbage file 1:50 cpuinfo, 64 bytes free, Saturn 2:00 top 2:20 Out of memory: the music is killed 2:40 ./fire, mono, then in colour 3:20 ping: 100% packet loss, a rover 3:38 make: a wall of compile errors 4:16 sl: the steam train 4:28 ./delve: the ASCII dungeon 5:20 lp0: printer may be on fire 5:30 The BBS: modem screech, kicked 6:30 finger: the plan so far 6:40 rm -rf ~ /tmp/junk 7:15 The virus 8:20 history, sudo refuses 8:40 # i give up. shutdown -h now 8:52 The machine dies 9:06 The last picture, the CRT collapses guest@maria:~$ cat HOWTO --- A 40 x 22 text terminal in 320A mode, our own bold font, colour by palette runs, 160A colour blocks for the fire and the BBS.
