We are still loving our 15yo 52” Panasonic plasma TV. Hope it lasts another 15yrs and we never have to own a smart tv full of spyware!
I was sad when mine died. Funnily, it’s the only TV I’ve owned that has died. I’ve got a ~30 y/o CRT still kicking.
I started at NC State the same year Donald Bitzer came to the university. I took Discrete Math from him. Very cool guy.
Terrific reading. More broadly, the PLATO system deserves far more credit than it’s received for pioneering a set of technologies and software we take for granted today (text-based chat, screen sharing, multi-player games, for instance) that we largely take for granted today: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PLATO_(computer_system)
