#ZX81 scratchings update: with a little time this week, I managed to press buttons and add some more to my MGAc!d inspired... game? Now with added being able to spend cards to move, trashing cards, and querying squares.... This is the slowest progressing basic program ever. Note: video is at like 10x actual speed! 🫏#RetroComputing

Think I finally cracked using jrouter, tashtalk and netatalk together to work with netatalk and #globaltalkk

- Separate systems for netatalk and tashtalk
- tashtalk and jrouter can be on the same system
- tashtalk and jrouter must use unique MAC addresses
- tashtalk uses tap interface on a network bridge
- jrouter uses network bridge
- netatalk uses network bridge
- netatalk atalkd.conf set to autodiscover on network bridge
- jrouter is a seed router, netatalk and tashtalk are non-seed routers
- Startup order is: jrouter, netatalk, tashtalk, clients

I tried many things to consolidate down to a single RaspberryPi, but even with adding a USB NIC for jrouter/tashtalk and netatalk on the internal NIC things still wouldn't work 100%.

Packets were somehow "eaten", which was odd because the AppleTalk zones would show up in Chooser, but the netatalk file server wouldn't, or when it did it could give an error when trying to connect to it.

Auf der Original-Festplatte eine deutsche Version von CheckIt 3.0 gefunden. Und aufschlussreiche Infos über den Vorbesitzer. Zum Glück außer DOS, Windows 3.1 und Word 6.0 nix weiter drauf. Daten wurden wohl schon vor Ewigkeiten gelöscht (oder waren nie lokal gespeichert).
