Hi, there's supposed to be an embedded video. In the default Lemmy UI I can see them (I think this was only recently fixed) when expanding the post. In my Lemmy client they don't show up. They are Mastodon posts bridged via Fedia/Mbin so a bit of weirdness is to be expected.

Teletext 50: The History of the first 50 years | Byte High no Limit (sunspotstories.podbean.com)
 

In 1974, a brand new technology called teletext was being rolled out. It would, over the next few decades, have far-reaching implications, not only in the UK but worldwide. These are the stories of those involved in the production, restoration and art of the blocky medium that graced UK TV screens until 2012. You’ll hear from the pioneers, those who made teletext tick, and the newcomers keeping the medium alive 50 years after its inception. This is a social record of teletext, and these are the teletext people.

I've been running this community for a while now and want sure how it would plan out. Thank you all for subscribing and posting both beautiful and creepy fae folk art. (Edit: I meant to post a bit more often myself but due to personal issues it's fallen by the wayside a bit)

As a Christmas special, in this thread only, please post photos of your Christmas tree fairies. 🧚

(I'm posting this from an alt as feddit.uk is down)

I picked this up in a charity shop some time ago and was trying to run it on Windows 95 with no luck. Just happened upon this guide which says it works on Windows 10 - ran through it and played the first couple of easy levels. It does work!

Why did you choose your username? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] chris@fedia.io 3 points 2 years ago

I realised some time back that my first name backwards made me sound like a knight. I've failed to utilise this in usernames except maybe once.

Apologies, I didn't know this, I just thought it was served on a subdomain for some random reason and it didn't matter. I'll ensure my links are "clean" in future 🙂

Stuffed Fables, or The Adventures Of Robin Hood (not played the latter but I believe it's a similar adventure gamebook system)

Chaos is a brilliant multiplayer turn-based strategy game.
Lemmings is the perfect puzzle game (also shameless plug for !lemmings)

Most links have been working fine for me recently, although I still occasionally see this error. However, it appears that links to kbin magazines don't work at all. I suspect Connect is searching for server/c/community and not retrying with server/m/community when it gets an error back.
