Stay with this guys, you're hleping a lot of people.

Must physics basics come first?

2012-01-05T02:18:58Z

Xeentav: /* What are basics */

==Issues==
===Physical science, the union and division of chemistry and physics===
In a policy recommendation, the AAPT defended against the integration of physics and chemistry in a 2010 national standards document, arguing that "Since these disciplines have very different fundamental principles and discuss the principles using very different language; we believe that a more effective approach would be to explicitly define the core ideas for each discipline separately and then build bridges between the two content areas." http://www.aapt.org/Resources/policy/conceptualframeworks.cfm

HHIS I solhud have thought of that!

===Are so-called basics prerequisites to learning?===
In William Thomson's introductory lectures, he stated before any considerable progress can be made in a philosophical study of nature a thorough knowledge of dynamical principles is absolutely necessary. See p.241 of Sylvanus P. Thompson's The Life of William Thomson v.1, 1910.

Possible studies

2012-01-03T23:11:02Z

Xeentav: /* Can we rewrite classic papers for pre-college readers? */

Research I'd like to do
===Who is creating the new [[Physicism]]?===
What is the shape, over time or associated with topics, of expressions of physicism in The Physics Teacher?

===[[Online electronics tutorials]]===
Do the tutorials belie a certain subset of electronics hobbyists and professionals, perhaps leaning towards the pedagogues or the retirees, or people paid well, or people not paid well?

===The teapot versus the bouncing ball:The hello world of 3D and animation===
http://jlongster.com/s/dom3d/example3.html

===What would be a good high school STS course?===
We might refer to "Science/Technology/Society As Reform In Science Education" editor Robert Yager, 1996.

Until I found this I thohugt I'd have to spend the day inside.

===Did citations in 1910s journals match nationalism of entire journal?===
Considering Annalen der Physik, Le Radium, or Nature, did the proportion of international citations exceed or underrepresent the internationality of authorship? Inspired by presentation on Rutherford by Melinda Baldwin at [[HSS 2011]].
Wow! That's a really neat awnser!

===Did physics teachers hack schooling for their purposes as opposed to government's purposes?===
===In physics education, does a choice of pedagogy affect a choice of curriculum?===
Do the teacher's styles or methods lead to a selection of a subset of all reasonable content? Evidence might be linked to citizen science, work with organizations like NASA, differing career paths.
===What happens to user agency in the pro-sumer (producer/consumer) model when someone produces something without being sure there is ever going to be an audience/client?===
===Will graphs comparing biology curriculum dynamism to physics education stagnation shake physics educators to consider forcing change?===
===Do objects show more dynamism than people or texts, in physics education?===
The measure of dynamism may be taken over a range of 20 to 100 years, or between schools.
===Can we study physics curriculum change with Actor Network Theory?===
See Bruno Latour.
===Is physics curriculum change better presented as a rational conclusion or a social movement?===
===What inspired the work to make curriculum on quantum physics for K12 in Italy?===
===How well does Contact, the movie and/or the book, reflect the most important issues in late 20th century science and technology?===
===How is [[physicism]] explained in physics textbooks?===
Does the meat of the text reflect the physicism expressed in the introduction?
===Is the marketing of the internet as a utility comparable to Samuel Insull's innovative marketing of electricity as a utility?===

NeXT Computer

2012-01-03T18:34:45Z

Xeentav: /* Useful command-line commands */

===Provenance===
We acquired a NeXT Computer system from Cornell University, 2011, to be part of our [[Museum of 20th Century IT]]. It was used by Computer Graphics staff and researchers to explore interactive media in the early 90s.

===Description===
It is the original, cube-shaped CPU, with a matching monitor and laser printer. The CPU also has an extra card called NeXT Dimension, allowing color graphics.

In its original configuration, the mouse plugs into the keyboard, which plugs into the MegaPixel display, which plugs into the main case. If we want to skip the MegaPixel display because we want to use solely the color monitor, we have a peripheral, SoundBox, which can go between the keyboard and the main case. The SoundBox also has a microphone input, headphone output, stereo RCA output, and a speaker.

===Refurbishing===
====Disassembly====
Note, I usually keep track of where screws go by keeping the screws in threads which they threaded to attach whatever they attached.
;Rear cover:There are four screws permanently attached to the rear plate that connect it to the body. A T15, or possibly the next size larger, or 3mm allen key can turn them. The fan is attached to the rear cover, so remove the cable between the power supply and the fan to set the rear cover aside.
;Main boards:Both the motherboard and the NeXT Dimension board slide out from the backplane that connects all the boards. There are easy-to-remove cables between the drives and the motherboard that one should remove after sliding the motherboard out partway.
;Center tower:The center tower holds the power supply and the drives. It is held to the body by two screws on the lower inside. Once those screws are removed, the whole tower slides out.
;Drives:There are screws on either side of the center tower attaching the drives.

====Cleaning====
*Disassemble the computer.
*Vacuum the fan, the rear cover, and the inside of the case. Turn the case upside down and vacuum the vents.
*Vacuum the boards, but beware of static electricity that can build up on the nozzle, don't let it touch circuits.
*Vacuum the center tower, the vents on the power supply
*Vacuum the hard drive and optical drive.
*Wipe the inside of the case with a damp cloth.

====Backup====
=====Backup entire HD=====
While both systems are off, remove the NeXT HD and connect it via SCSI cables to another computer that has SCSI and also a UNIX type OS. I use a Beige G3. Use the dd command in the terminal or Apple's Disk Utility to make an image of the entire drive. Save it to CD or DVD, maybe twice. These computers are so rare it's not wise to depend on easy access to system files on the internet.
;My specific experience:I removed the drive, and attached it to a power supply in a home made SCSI enclosure, and attached it to my Beige G3 via SCSI. I turned on the power supply in the enclosure, then my G3, starting in OS X 10.2. Apple System Profiler showed the hard drive (controller) and its SCSI ID, but not the size, and the drive did not spin at all. After turning everything off, I tried a jumper on the pin that makes the HD spin on power-up instead of waiting for the computer to send an instruction, and started again, but the drive LED then flashed 1Hz, which means error. I thought maybe the power supply was inadequate, so I used the power supply from a tower computer, with the jumper to make the HD spin on power up. Voilà!
:I opened Terminal and entered the list command (ls /dev) to see what the system called the attached HD—disk1. I confirmed that disk0 was my internal hd and disk1 was the external by counting the partitions. Then I tested to see if I could copy a couple blocks from the attached HD:
dd count=2 if=/dev/disk1 of=testtwoblocks.img
:It was a success, so I imaged the entire drive, which took 50 minutes, 230328 bytes per second:
dd if=/dev/disk1 of=NeXT-661.img
:I later realized that I wanted separate images of the two partitions on this drive, but had changed data on the original drive, so I couldn't just image each partition. Instead, I needed to chop this image into pieces corresponding to each partition. To tell exactly where the each partition started, I went to the original computer, asked it to show me the data at the beginning of each partition, and searched for matching data on the image. To see the data that starts a partition, use dd command on the original machine to get the first block of data, and od to format the data for readability:
dd if=/dev/sd0b count=1 | od -h
:In my case, I then used a program, HexEdit to determine where in the image file the first several bytes match the first several bytes of that output. For example, say the second partition started 358560 kB into the whole-disk image. Use dd to split the image:
dd if=/path/to/whole-disk.img bs=1024 count=358560 of=Partition-A.img
dd if=/path/to/whole-disk.img bs=1024 skip=358560 of=Partition-B.img

=====Backup partitions of HD=====
A NeXT HD may well be split into multiple partitions. Mine has a system partition, mounted as root "/", and a Users partition, which, during system startup, is mounted to the /Users directory. Look in the file private/etc/mtab to see what's mounted at startup:
more /private/etc/mtab
If there's more than one partition, you might want to make separate images from each:
dd if=/dev/disk1s0 of=NeXT-part0.img
dd if=/dev/disk1s1 of=NeXT-part1.img
etc.

=====Backup folders and files=====
I use the tar and gzip command-line programs, or gnutar, to create files that maintain their integrity across systems and disks. I compress them to quicken transfers across ftp over ethernet. For example, to compress a folder, I open Terminal and use gnutar, note the period after the folder to indicate copy all the contents:
gnutar -c -z -C /path/to/folder . -f folder.tar.gz
-c means create a new archive, -z compress using gzip, -C switch input folder to the following argument, . copy this folder, -f save the file as the following argument.

====Battery====
There is a 3V BR-2/3A lithium battery. Hopefully it hasn't leaked onto the motherboard. If so, remove salts with water and a toothbrush, and allow to dry completely. Removing the battery for a day or so erases the parameter memory (PRAM), useful if the computer has a hardware password that is forgotten.

====Startup====
Hold command and ~ at startup, after the test, when the system just starts putting out text messages, to enter a boot menu. bsd -s will start the computer in single-user mode, which allows you to reset the passwords if you've forgotten them or don't know them:
passwd root
If you are asked for a hardware password, and you don't remember it, use the [[#Battery|battery]] procedure.
While you're in single-user mode, if you want to access some files that aren't mounted because they are part of a second partition, run the startup script, and then the computer is in a state similar to the regular state:
sh /etc/rc &

====NetInfo problems====
Often a NeXT computer was part of a network of computers that shared information about users, printers, internet hosts, etc. You might have problems creating users, logging in, or other problems with users and networks. You can reset the NetInfo database to factory blankness. There might be problems wider than these two netinfo files/folders, and changing these might mess with the rest of your setup. Proceed with caution and make backups as described:
#Start in Single User Mode. See [[#Startup]].
#Backup the files we're going to change:
cp -r /etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig.backup
cp -r /etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo.backup
cp -r /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.backup
#Copy the template hostconfig to /etc. This restores the hostconfig file to its default configuration.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig
#Copy the template hosts file to /etc
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hosts /etc/hosts
#Remove the directory in /etc/netinfo to delete all NetInfo domains on that computer.
rm -r /etc/netinfo
#Copy the files in /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo to /etc/netinfo to restore the netinfo domain to its original state.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo
#Reboot. Actually, power off and power on to make sure.
#Login.
#Start Simple Network Starter (in the NextAdmin directory); choose local standalone settings.

===Peripherals===
====SCSI Zip drive====
The main board has a small 50 pin connector. With the right adaptor, it can be connected to an Iomega Zip drive, SCSI flavor. NeXT can format, read, and write it with NeXT flavor or Macintosh HFS flavor.
====Monitors====
I have a NeXT Dimension board. When I first started my computer with only the MegaPixel Display attached, I was upset that nothing was showing on the screen. Then I realized I could hook a RGB monitor, via a special cable, to the color monitor jack on the Dimension board, and the system was using that as its main screen, even if none was hooked up. While there, I opened Preferences.app, where I could turn on output to the MegaPixel display, switch to it as the main screen, or change their arrangement.
====SCSI Hard Drives====
You can easily prepare a new disk by attaching a SCSI drive in an external enclosure, with proper termination, a unique SCSI ID, making sure to make any connections while the power is off.

The BuildDisk application, in addition to partitioning and formatting, allows you to make a bootable SCSI disk, using files from the startup disk. Unix File System (UFS, or BSD) partitions, the kind used on NeXT hardware, is limited to 2GB max partitions. Also, the system is installed on the first partition of any disk.

Kewl you sulhod come up with that. Excellent!

NeXT Computer

2012-01-03T12:29:20Z

Xeentav: /* Mounting a NeXT CD in Linux */

===Provenance===
We acquired a NeXT Computer system from Cornell University, 2011, to be part of our [[Museum of 20th Century IT]]. It was used by Computer Graphics staff and researchers to explore interactive media in the early 90s.

===Description===
It is the original, cube-shaped CPU, with a matching monitor and laser printer. The CPU also has an extra card called NeXT Dimension, allowing color graphics.

In its original configuration, the mouse plugs into the keyboard, which plugs into the MegaPixel display, which plugs into the main case. If we want to skip the MegaPixel display because we want to use solely the color monitor, we have a peripheral, SoundBox, which can go between the keyboard and the main case. The SoundBox also has a microphone input, headphone output, stereo RCA output, and a speaker.

===Refurbishing===
====Disassembly====
Note, I usually keep track of where screws go by keeping the screws in threads which they threaded to attach whatever they attached.
;Rear cover:There are four screws permanently attached to the rear plate that connect it to the body. A T15, or possibly the next size larger, or 3mm allen key can turn them. The fan is attached to the rear cover, so remove the cable between the power supply and the fan to set the rear cover aside.
;Main boards:Both the motherboard and the NeXT Dimension board slide out from the backplane that connects all the boards. There are easy-to-remove cables between the drives and the motherboard that one should remove after sliding the motherboard out partway.
;Center tower:The center tower holds the power supply and the drives. It is held to the body by two screws on the lower inside. Once those screws are removed, the whole tower slides out.
;Drives:There are screws on either side of the center tower attaching the drives.

====Cleaning====
*Disassemble the computer.
*Vacuum the fan, the rear cover, and the inside of the case. Turn the case upside down and vacuum the vents.
*Vacuum the boards, but beware of static electricity that can build up on the nozzle, don't let it touch circuits.
*Vacuum the center tower, the vents on the power supply
*Vacuum the hard drive and optical drive.
*Wipe the inside of the case with a damp cloth.

====Backup====
=====Backup entire HD=====
While both systems are off, remove the NeXT HD and connect it via SCSI cables to another computer that has SCSI and also a UNIX type OS. I use a Beige G3. Use the dd command in the terminal or Apple's Disk Utility to make an image of the entire drive. Save it to CD or DVD, maybe twice. These computers are so rare it's not wise to depend on easy access to system files on the internet.
;My specific experience:I removed the drive, and attached it to a power supply in a home made SCSI enclosure, and attached it to my Beige G3 via SCSI. I turned on the power supply in the enclosure, then my G3, starting in OS X 10.2. Apple System Profiler showed the hard drive (controller) and its SCSI ID, but not the size, and the drive did not spin at all. After turning everything off, I tried a jumper on the pin that makes the HD spin on power-up instead of waiting for the computer to send an instruction, and started again, but the drive LED then flashed 1Hz, which means error. I thought maybe the power supply was inadequate, so I used the power supply from a tower computer, with the jumper to make the HD spin on power up. Voilà!
:I opened Terminal and entered the list command (ls /dev) to see what the system called the attached HD—disk1. I confirmed that disk0 was my internal hd and disk1 was the external by counting the partitions. Then I tested to see if I could copy a couple blocks from the attached HD:
dd count=2 if=/dev/disk1 of=testtwoblocks.img
:It was a success, so I imaged the entire drive, which took 50 minutes, 230328 bytes per second:
dd if=/dev/disk1 of=NeXT-661.img
:I later realized that I wanted separate images of the two partitions on this drive, but had changed data on the original drive, so I couldn't just image each partition. Instead, I needed to chop this image into pieces corresponding to each partition. To tell exactly where the each partition started, I went to the original computer, asked it to show me the data at the beginning of each partition, and searched for matching data on the image. To see the data that starts a partition, use dd command on the original machine to get the first block of data, and od to format the data for readability:
dd if=/dev/sd0b count=1 | od -h
:In my case, I then used a program, HexEdit to determine where in the image file the first several bytes match the first several bytes of that output. For example, say the second partition started 358560 kB into the whole-disk image. Use dd to split the image:
dd if=/path/to/whole-disk.img bs=1024 count=358560 of=Partition-A.img
dd if=/path/to/whole-disk.img bs=1024 skip=358560 of=Partition-B.img

=====Backup partitions of HD=====
A NeXT HD may well be split into multiple partitions. Mine has a system partition, mounted as root "/", and a Users partition, which, during system startup, is mounted to the /Users directory. Look in the file private/etc/mtab to see what's mounted at startup:
more /private/etc/mtab
If there's more than one partition, you might want to make separate images from each:
dd if=/dev/disk1s0 of=NeXT-part0.img
dd if=/dev/disk1s1 of=NeXT-part1.img
etc.

=====Backup folders and files=====
I use the tar and gzip command-line programs, or gnutar, to create files that maintain their integrity across systems and disks. I compress them to quicken transfers across ftp over ethernet. For example, to compress a folder, I open Terminal and use gnutar, note the period after the folder to indicate copy all the contents:
gnutar -c -z -C /path/to/folder . -f folder.tar.gz
-c means create a new archive, -z compress using gzip, -C switch input folder to the following argument, . copy this folder, -f save the file as the following argument.

====Battery====
There is a 3V BR-2/3A lithium battery. Hopefully it hasn't leaked onto the motherboard. If so, remove salts with water and a toothbrush, and allow to dry completely. Removing the battery for a day or so erases the parameter memory (PRAM), useful if the computer has a hardware password that is forgotten.

====Startup====
Hold command and ~ at startup, after the test, when the system just starts putting out text messages, to enter a boot menu. bsd -s will start the computer in single-user mode, which allows you to reset the passwords if you've forgotten them or don't know them:
passwd root
If you are asked for a hardware password, and you don't remember it, use the [[#Battery|battery]] procedure.
While you're in single-user mode, if you want to access some files that aren't mounted because they are part of a second partition, run the startup script, and then the computer is in a state similar to the regular state:
sh /etc/rc &

====NetInfo problems====
Often a NeXT computer was part of a network of computers that shared information about users, printers, internet hosts, etc. You might have problems creating users, logging in, or other problems with users and networks. You can reset the NetInfo database to factory blankness. There might be problems wider than these two netinfo files/folders, and changing these might mess with the rest of your setup. Proceed with caution and make backups as described:
#Start in Single User Mode. See [[#Startup]].
#Backup the files we're going to change:
cp -r /etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig.backup
cp -r /etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo.backup
cp -r /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.backup
#Copy the template hostconfig to /etc. This restores the hostconfig file to its default configuration.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig
#Copy the template hosts file to /etc
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hosts /etc/hosts
#Remove the directory in /etc/netinfo to delete all NetInfo domains on that computer.
rm -r /etc/netinfo
#Copy the files in /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo to /etc/netinfo to restore the netinfo domain to its original state.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo
#Reboot. Actually, power off and power on to make sure.
#Login.
#Start Simple Network Starter (in the NextAdmin directory); choose local standalone settings.

===Peripherals===
====SCSI Zip drive====
The main board has a small 50 pin connector. With the right adaptor, it can be connected to an Iomega Zip drive, SCSI flavor. NeXT can format, read, and write it with NeXT flavor or Macintosh HFS flavor.
====Monitors====
I have a NeXT Dimension board. When I first started my computer with only the MegaPixel Display attached, I was upset that nothing was showing on the screen. Then I realized I could hook a RGB monitor, via a special cable, to the color monitor jack on the Dimension board, and the system was using that as its main screen, even if none was hooked up. While there, I opened Preferences.app, where I could turn on output to the MegaPixel display, switch to it as the main screen, or change their arrangement.
====SCSI Hard Drives====
You can easily prepare a new disk by attaching a SCSI drive in an external enclosure, with proper termination, a unique SCSI ID, making sure to make any connections while the power is off.

===Peripherals===
====SCSI Zip drive====
The main board has a small 50 pin connector. With the right adaptor, it can be connected to an Iomega Zip drive, SCSI flavor. NeXT can format, read, and write it with NeXT flavor or Macintosh HFS flavor.
====Monitors====
I have a NeXT Dimension board. When I first started my computer with only the MegaPixel Display attached, I was upset that nothing was showing on the screen. Then I realized I could hook a RGB monitor, via a special cable, to the color monitor jack on the Dimension board, and the system was using that as its main screen, even if none was hooked up. While there, I opened Preferences.app, where I could turn on output to the MegaPixel display, switch to it as the main screen, or change their arrangement.

===Useful command-line commands===
df shows the capacities, usage, and mount point for each filesystem of each drive.

===Accessing NeXT filesystems outside NeXT OS.===
====Mounting a NeXT CD in Linux====
It's pretty simple to mount a NeXT CD in Linux. We use the UFS file system, type nextstep-cd, which is read-only. With only one CD drive, there's usually a /dev/cdrom that lets us access it, and we need to provide a folder in our hierarchy to access it.
mkdir ~/testnextcdmount
mount -t ufs -o ufstype=nextstep-cd /dev/cdrom ~/testnextcdmount
ls ~/testnextcdmount
====Mounting a NeXT drive image in Linux====
mkdir ~/testnextmount
mount -t ufs -o ufstype=nextstep,ro /path/to/imagefile ~/testnextmount
ls ~/testnextmount

NeXT Computer

2011-12-21T16:59:06Z

Xeentav: /* Backup entire HD */

===Provenance===
We acquired a NeXT Computer system from Cornell University, 2011 to be part of our [[Museum of 20th Century IT]]. It was used by Computer Graphics staff.

===Description===
It is the original, cube-shaped CPU, with a matching monitor and laser printer. The CPU also has an extra card called NeXT Dimension, allowing color graphics.

===Refurbishing===
====Disassembly====
Note, I usually keep track of where screws go by keeping the screws in threads which they threaded to attach whatever they attached.
;Rear cover:There are four screws permanently attached to the rear plate that connect it to the body. A T15, or possibly the next size larger, or 3mm allen key can turn them. The fan is attached to the rear cover, so remove the cable between the power supply and the fan to set the rear cover aside.
;Main boards:Both the motherboard and the NeXT Dimension board slide out from the backplane that connects all the boards. There are easy-to-remove cables between the drives and the motherboard that one should remove after sliding the motherboard out partway.
;Center tower:The center tower holds the power supply and the drives. It is held to the body by two screws on the lower inside. Once those screws are removed, the whole tower slides out.
;Drives:There are screws on either side of the center tower attaching the drives.

====Cleaning====
*Disassemble the computer.
*Vacuum the fan, the rear cover, and the inside of the case. Turn the case upside down and vacuum the vents.
*Vacuum the boards, but beware of static electricity that can build up on the nozzle, don't let it touch circuits.
*Vacuum the center tower, the vents on the power supply
*Vacuum the hard drive and optical drive.
*Wipe the inside of the case with a damp cloth.

====Backup====
=====Backup entire HD=====
While both systems are off, remove the NeXT HD and connect it via SCSI cables to another computer that has SCSI and also a UNIX type OS. I use a Beige G3. Use the dd command in the terminal or Apple's Disk Utility to make an image of the entire drive. Save it to CD or DVD, maybe twice. These computers are so rare it's not wise to depend on easy access to system files on the internet.
;My specific experience:I removed the drive, and attached it to a power supply in a home made SCSI enclosure, and attached it to my Beige G3 via SCSI. I turned on the power supply in the enclosure, then my G3, starting in OS X 10.2. Apple System Profiler showed the hard drive (controller) and its SCSI ID, but not the size, and the drive did not spin at all. After turning everything off, I tried a jumper on the pin that makes the HD spin on power-up instead of waiting for the computer to send an instruction, and started again, but the drive LED then flashed 1Hz, which means error. I thought maybe the power supply was inadequate, so I used the power supply from a tower computer, with the jumper to make the HD spin on power up. Voilà!
:I opened Terminal and entered the list command (ls /dev) to see what the system called the attached HD—disk1. I confirmed that disk0 was my internal hd and disk1 was the external by counting the partitions. Then I tested to see if I could copy a couple blocks from the attached HD:
dd count=2 if=/dev/disk1 of=testtwoblocks.img
:It was a success, so I imaged the entire drive, which took 50 minutes, 230328 bytes per second:
dd if=/dev/disk1 of=NeXT-661.img

=====Backup partitions of HD=====
A NeXT HD may well be split into multiple partitions. Mine has a system partition, mounted as root "/", and a Users partition, which, during system startup, is mounted to the /Users directory. Look in the file private/etc/mtab to see what's mounted at startup:
more /private/etc/mtab
If there's more than one partition, you might want to make separate images from each:
dd if=/dev/disk1s0 of=NeXT-part0.img
dd if=/dev/disk1s1 of=NeXT-part1.img
etc.

=====Backup folders and files=====
I use the tar and gzip command-line programs, or gnutar, to create files that maintain their integrity across systems and disks. I compress them to quicken transfers across ftp over ethernet. For example, to compress a folder, I open Terminal and use gnutar, note the period after the folder to indicate copy all the contents:
gnutar -c -z -C /path/to/folder . -f folder.tar.gz
-c means create a new archive, -z compress using gzip, -C switch input folder to the following argument, . copy this folder, -f save the file as the following argument.

====Battery====
There is a 3V BR-2/3A lithium battery. Hopefully it hasn't leaked onto the motherboard. If so, remove salts with water and a toothbrush, and allow to dry completely. Removing the battery for a day or so erases the parameter memory (PRAM), useful if the computer has a hardware password that is forgotten.

====Startup====
Hold command and ~ at startup, after the test, when the system just starts putting out text messages, to enter a boot menu. bsd -s will start the computer in single-user mode, which allows you to reset the passwords if you've forgotten them or don't know them:
passwd root
If you are asked for a hardware password, and you don't remember it, use the [[#Battery|battery]] procedure.
While you're in single-user mode, if you want to access some files that aren't mounted because they are part of a second partition, run the startup script, and then the computer is in a state similar to the regular state:
sh /etc/rc &

====NetInfo problems====
Often a NeXT computer was part of a network of computers that shared information about users, printers, internet hosts, etc. You might have problems creating users, logging in, or other problems with users and networks. You can reset the NetInfo database to factory blankness. There might be problems wider than these two netinfo files/folders, and changing these might mess with the rest of your setup. Proceed with caution and make backups as described:
#Start in Single User Mode. See [[#Startup]].
#Backup the files we're going to change:
cp -r /etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig.backup
cp -r /etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo.backup
cp -r /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.backup
#Copy the template hostconfig to /etc. This restores the hostconfig file to its default configuration.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hostconfig /etc/hostconfig
#Copy the template hosts file to /etc
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/hosts /etc/hosts
#Remove the directory in /etc/netinfo to delete all NetInfo domains on that computer.
rm -r /etc/netinfo
#Copy the files in /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo to /etc/netinfo to restore the netinfo domain to its original state.
cp -r /usr/template/client/etc/netinfo /etc/netinfo
#Reboot. Actually, power off and power on to make sure.
#Login.
#Start Simple Network Starter (in the NextAdmin directory); choose local standalone settings.

Research I'd like to do

===[[Online electronics tutorials]]===
Do the tutorials belie a certain subset of electronics hobbyists and professionals, perhaps leaning towards the pedagogues or the retirees, or people paid well, or people not paid well?

===The teapot versus the bouncing ball:The hello world of 3D and animation===
http://jlongster.com/s/dom3d/example3.html

===What would be a good high school STS course?===
We might refer to "Science/Technology/Society As Reform In Science Education" editor Robert Yager, 1996.

===Can we determine how people differentiate textbooks from Amazon comments?===
How can we process comments for analysis? With example methods, can we pattern opinions of physics textbooks?

===Did citations in 1910s journals match nationalism of entire journal?===
Considering Annalen der Physik, Le Radium, or Nature, did the proportion of international citations exceed or underrepresent the internationality of authorship? Inspired by presentation on Rutherford by Melinda Baldwin at [[HSS 2011]].
===Can we rewrite classic papers for pre-college readers?===
Do they need rewriting before consumption is possible? Can we make texts, modules, study units?
===Did physics teachers hack schooling for their purposes as opposed to government's purposes?===
===In physics education, does a choice of pedagogy affect a choice of curriculum?===
Do the teacher's styles or methods lead to a selection of a subset of all reasonable content? Evidence might be linked to citizen science, work with organizations like NASA, differing career paths.
===What happens to user agency in the pro-sumer (producer/consumer) model when someone produces something without being sure there is ever going to be an audience/client?===
===Will graphs comparing biology curriculum dynamism to physics education stagnation shake physics educators to consider forcing change?===
===Do objects show more dynamism than people or texts, in physics education?===
The measure of dynamism may be taken over a range of 20 to 100 years, or between schools.
===Can we study physics curriculum change with Actor Network Theory?===
See Bruno Latour.
===Is physics curriculum change better presented as a rational conclusion or a social movement?===
===What inspired the work to make curriculum on quantum physics for K12 in Italy?===

History of Science Society
Joint conference with SHOT and SSSS.

November, 2011

===Sessions===
====Linking the past and the present:====
;Piers Hale, U OK:Reflecting on the context in which we teach the history of science. Most students are science and engineering majors. They provide diff challenges than students from other fields. Respect from science and engineering faculty. NSF funding for betterment of STEM education may be served by history integration. E.g., see NSF 10-544 Program Solicitation.
:Study abroad is an opportunity to address student expectations and foster collaboration between instructors. Experience in the field, at least in this case in Ecuador, led instructor to steer away from the pre-planned syllabus. There were social issues like the relationship between locals and a site of oil extraction at Tiputini. Unpredicted local issues in science and society arose, for example the story of Lonesome George, the Galapagos sea turtle who supposedly has no mate, whose true story may be hidden by those who don't want to lose the sense that local fauna are so endangered that they need intense financial support.
:Zoology at U Oklahoma requires history of science course. Faculty debating whether the longstanding requirement should stand. Pre-med and recently engineering have added a requirement.
:Benefits of history of science:Questions that vex polity are not completely new, conditions can be identified, mistakes can be identified, there are multiple ways to frame inquiries.
:Used pre and post evaluations.
;Shawn:Respect from faculty expressed in curriculum integration? History of science abroad—Primary or secondary?
;Mark Borrello, U Minnesota, ex Michigan State:Taught history of science in Tropical Biodiversity and Conservation in Panama. Learned about genealogy of scientists in situ. Modified ecology's pedagogical method of generating inquiries based on individual field experience—e.g. what do students think scientists from earlier times were thinking at this site?
:The historian helps provide the conceptual framework and story to a scientific inquiry in class. E.g., what is an individual, what is speciation, these are concepts for labs in biology courses that are historically relevant and significant.
;James Elwick, York U, CA:Elwick makes a case for lab work in the class, even the 80-student lecture hall. Students should be exposed to novel work with tools, not just redundant, reenacting work. Taught this course three times. Made a lab, students design/make/test timekeeping devices in teams and judged each other. Imitations were encouraged, as long as citations were kept. A second trial occurred more than a month after the first. "High source, Stillman Drake's work figuring out how Galileo kept time; low source, TV show." "The class looked like a science fair, timekeeping devices spread out around the lecture hall." "Students discovered how common good ideas were, but how hard they were to implement." Elwick learned how hard it was to negotiate his rules with wily students. Some students just wanted lectures, essays, exams, no lab work. Elwick stopped teaching about creativity and innovation, and too-large classes, so stopped doing device lab work in class. He also thought he was teaching more about engineering than science.
:One member of the audience suggested SCALE UP and NCSU as a way to work with large enrollment courses.
;David Sepkoski, UNC Wilmington:Ways historians of science could integrate history ed into science curriculum, undergrads or grads.
:One way, offering courses in foundational literature in particular fields. Science students, even scientists, haven't read classic papers in their disciplines.
*Reading classic papers:
**Students give an interested response.
**Gives a new view of contemporary work.
**Just one way to integrate with science instruction.
:Institutional limitation:If it's coming from a history department, there may be much resistance from the science department.
:Science students attended Sepkoski's history courses and stated they'd prefer a place where there were less non-science students. Sepkoski recently started a seminar where they assembled private readings since there was no course for science majors in the history of science.
:Older ideas get sanitized by presentation in newer textbooks/lectures, original contexts are forgotten, students aren't presented with challenges original thinkers faced. It's even true that new ideas can come from reading old texts.
:Sepkoski says that ideally this kind of course should be team-taught.
:Sepkoski questions whether some disciplines could be served by reading classic papers, e.g. physics.
;Shawn:Perhaps an impediment to physics students signing up for history isn't always that that physics education doesn't feel it needs history, but that the society of historians doesn't always seem quite welcoming/open to physics students who want to do more history but not commit 100% to history at the expense of their study of physics.
;Shawn:Are there readings/studies I can read to learn about efforts to integrate history into STEM ed?

:[[Possible studies]]:Can/need we rewrite classic papers for pre-college readers? Can we make texts, modules, study units?

====Scientific Periodicals in Great Britain, 1785-1914====
;Iain Watts, Princeton U:We can see how, despite snobbery, people in late Georgian England turned to new journals for consumption of scientific publishing, when there were so many limits and rules involved in publishing through the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, which by that time was printed only twice a year, papers (exclusively) vetted up to a year before.
;Cameron Murray, York U:Journalism historians have overlooked Egerton Smith's Kaleidoscope and Mercury of Liverpool, England as a filling new, semi-political niche for technical and human ecological knowledge in this important port city
;Geoff Belknap, U of Cambridge:The differing utilities of photographs and rapidly developing print technology in Nature and Knowledge in the late 19th century show the differing editorial intents and circumstances of the two journals. E.g., Knowledge uses photographs for description, while Nature uses them as authoritative data.
;Melinda Baldwin, York U:Ernest Rutherford uses letters to the editor in the 1900s to avoid the scoop that embarrassed him in his earlier work on roentgen rays, as well as for other reasons. Baldwin contrasts the resulting internationalism with the lack thereof in the arguably internationalist field of Mendelian genetics.

====Victorian Networks====
;Laura Snyder, St. John's U:Whewell, Herschell, and two others of the Cambridge Four, the Philosophical Breakfast Club.
;Joan Richards:Young members of the nascent Royal Astronomical Society collectively bullied a narrative, in individual ways, attempting to canonize benefactor -insert name here- and demonize South. In history, they only succeeded in the latter. The wives, sisters, and adult daughters helped in the background, and considering them helps us realize the story better than previous historiographies.
;Amy King, Prof. of English, St. John's U:Seashore Natural History Networks of the 1850s. George Eliot wrote Adam Bede at the same time as her partner, George Lewes was living at and writing a natural history about the seashore.
;Bernard Lightman, York U:Lightman hopes to show how labs became so important to the proto-X-Club, the Queenwood-Marburg Network—John Tyndall, Hirst, and Edward Frankland, artisans who became physical scientists. Queenwood was all about applied or 'practical' science. Tyndall and Frankland taught all sorts of industrially useful sciences. Lightman says Tyndall's pedagogical lab work at Quuenwood not only led to his famous pedagogical work, but also served to cleave him to experimental science.
:Lightman politely concludes letting us know what he has accomplished and what still needs to be done to explain how german sites inspired british laboratory science of the late Victorian era.

====Bringing Science to the Public====
;Mark Largent, Jane Maienschein, Edward Larson, and Naomi Oreskes: discussed how historians of science can make themselves useful to the public by reaching out to policymakers, school boards, stop making self-fulfilling prophecies that nobody will listen to them. By limiting what we consider authorship, for purposes of tenure and so on, narrows our output.

====History project in K-12====
Birchwood student Kavya R. prepared a website on the Copernican debate for National History Day. Her teacher was Connie Miller.

Owen Gingererich was the first professor to receive a question via email from Kavya. He immediately asked her to come up with questions about the topic and her own answer to those questions, along with a list of already-read sources, so that he knew what level she was at.

Once Robert Westman heard from Kavya, he determined that she wasn't a spammer, then he was excited by the novelty of hearing from a K-12 student.

Moderator John Lynch asked what historians of science can contribute to the efforts of K12 teachers and students. I would like to answer that historians should offer workshops at teacher conferences.

See National History Day web site:http://www.nhd.org/

An audience member prepared a module, funded by NSF and published by Kendall-Hunt, that hasn't shown obvious impact on K12 education.

====How Physicists Learned to Love Abstration, from Helmoltz and Poincaré to Robb, Planck, and Einstein====
;Tom Archibald, Simon Fraser U:Poincaré innovated and transformed mathematical methods to serve celestial mechanics. His Hamilton-Jacobi methods drew on much older work by Jacobi from general mechanics—Archibald calls this "slow uptake"—Did he mean it took a long time for Jacobi's work to have an impact, or Poincaré is special, like Einstein and Dirac, in selecting ancient work to re-weave into innovation? Archibald says the work was so difficult it took this much time for it to be completed to a level of satisfaction.
:Poincaré made many errors and speculations, innovating so fast, working backwards and forwards between deduction and working towards expected responses.

Apple TV repair

2011-10-27T05:40:12Z

Xeentav:

===Backup===
I wish I had a backup of my drive before the Apple TV went screwy, but I made a backup of the screwy state anyway. Here's how:

I unplugged the device, then I removed the hard drive. I skipped the hair-dryer step, which was a mistake. iFixit has guides for disassembling the machine: http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_TV_1st_Generation

(Before I attached the drive, I should have [[Turn off Spotlight|turned off Spotlight]], so it wouldn't add search folders to two of the volumes).

I attached the drive, via USB <> PATA adapter, to my Mac. I unmounted the volumes on the drives using Disk Utility, which I kept open so that I could repeatedly unmount the drives easily while I worked.

I used gpt to view a snapshot of the partitions as they were. But first I found the name of the disk from Disk Utility by clicking on the drive and getting "Information." Your disk may be in a different slot of the /dev/disk# numbering order:
gpt show /dev/disk1
Then I used dd to copy the entire drive as an image on my hard drive—make sure you have enough room, the ATV drive is at least 40GB. I put it in my Temp folder which I ordered Time Machine to ignore, so it doesn't bother backing up so huge a file.
sudo dd if=/dev/disk1 bs=1m of=~/Temp/appletv-orig.dmg
You can press control-T during the execution of dd to see the progress. It took me about two hours to copy this way.

;to be continued
===New hard drive===
I've tried many different methods to copy what's on the old drive to the new drive. At the very least, supposedly, I need the partitions, with data in the recovery partition copied exactly. With that, "Factory Restore" should put everything back in order.
I've tried online methods:
http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/23/how-to-upgrade-the-drive-in-your-apple-tv/3 . This method balked at the re-addition of the fourth partition after removing it.

Future Culture FAQ

Xeentav: /* FAQ as emailed in 1992 */

===Computers are just as much about the past as about the future?===
In the world of technology that's too often couched as futuristic and hyper-creative, it's interesting to see what tidbits of culture are older than commonly thought. An interesting comparative inquiry arises—Who thinks something has been commonplace for longer, older people who used a high tech culture sophisticatedly or younger people who grew up with that same high tech culture?

Got it! Thanks a lot again for helinpg me out!

While no article that attempts to document an entire emerging
subculture can be complete, I will do my best to give you enough
complete and accurate information to get you on your way to the future.

This article will focus mainly on cyberpunk culture, rave culture,
industrial, po-mo, virtual reality, drugs, computer underground,
etc. Basically, the elements that make up the developing
techno-underground, the new edge, the technoculture.

Included in this article will be: suggested readings -- books,
magazines, zines, requisite authors, etc., BBSes devoted to relevant
topics, corporations and merchandise geared toward the techno-aware,
Internet e-mail addresses for relevant figure-heads in this area,
suggested music and movies/videos, FTP sites, etc.

I will do my best to update this article every so often, as the
techno-underground is not stagnant and is always shifting and changing
and moving forward. If you have any complaints/comments/suggestions/
errors or just want to send someone mail, write to me on the Internet
at ahawks@nyx.cs.du.edu. I also welcome addition requests and such -
feel free to say "hey man, add blah-blah to the list!"

Agrippa: A Book of the Dead - A collaboration between author [William
Gibson], publisher Kevin Begos Jr, and artist Dennis Ashbaugh.
This art-work contains engravings by Ashbaugh which appear or
disappear in light and an on-disk semi-autobiographical poem
by [William Gibson] which is unreadable after having been read
once. Agrippa is notable because in many respects it blurs
the lines about what art is, and adds fuel to the fire on
issues of property rights and intellectual property. A
highlight of 1992 was the release of Gibson's poem on to the
[net].

Artificial Life - man-made systems that exhibit characteristics
associated with the concept of "life".

Artificial Reality - similar to [virtual reality], but more
interactive, with the participant being part of, not just
experiencing, the artificial environment.

BBSes - electronic Bulletin Board Systems. Begun in the late 70's, a
form of [virtual community] existing in [cyberspace] where
participants (usually using aliases) may send and receive
public and private messages to each other on any topic
imaginable, transfer software (copyrighted and/or public
domain), play on-line games, etc. There is the "over-ground"
BBS world where aliases are less common and illegal activities
are avoided in discussion, and the [{computer} underground]
where illegal activities and discussions are very common,
members use aliases, and illegal information and/or software
is exchanged.

Boxing - A variety of electronic devices used to aid in [phreaking].
The original was the blue box, used from the mid 60's to the
mid 80's, which allowed long distance phone calls to be made
for free. A variety of other similar instruments
accomplishing different tasks have been developed, some
purely comical, some quite practical.

CC fraud - Credit Card or Calling Card fraud. common in the
[computer underground] community.

Chaos Theory - science revolving around simplistic equations
involving a large number of variables. Gave rise to
[fractals], a form of [cyberdelic] art. For further info on
the subject, James Gleick's "Chaos: Making a New Science" is
suggested.

C0dez Doodz - Essentialy a [phreaker]'s version of [pirates]. People
who seek out telco codes to be used to gain long distance (ld)
telephone calls without paying for them. Scurge of the
[computer underground].

Computer Underground - "A group organized in secrecy, hidden behind
aliases, to promote the free exchange of information
regarding anything and everything including, but not limited
to: computers, telephones, radios, chemicals, and ideas."
(thanx to The Butler for this definition)
The mainstay of communication for the computer underground is
[cyberspace], more specifically [BBSes]. The computer
underground is comprised of [hackers], [phreakers],
[piraters], anarchists, and other [cyberpunks].

CP - see [cyberpunk].

Cryonics - The fringe science of freezing a person's head or whole
body after death, in the hopes that in the future they may be
revived and brought back to life.

Cyber- - A prefix taken from [cybernetics] generally used in popular
culture to mean anything that is technologically oriented.

Cyberdeck - Term originated by [William Gibson] to refer to a
computer used by [deck cowboys] that can connect to the
[matrix].

Cyberdelic - "Cyber-art". Examples include [fractals],
computer-generated pictures and/or music, [virtual worlds],
etc.

Cybernetics - The study of communication systems in living organisms
and machines, the mathematical analysis of the flow of
information.

Cyberpunk - Begun as a literary movement in the 80's, an off-shoot of
normal science fiction. Unique in that it generally occurs
in the present or not so distant future, the characters are
often considered "punks" (social deviants) and technology,
(the cyber aspect), is prominent. "Neuromancer" by [William
Gibson], published in 1984, is considered by most to be the
"bible" of cyberpunk. Another prominent author is [Bruce
Sterling], editor of another worthy cyberpunk collection,
"Mirrorshades". Other examples of cyberpunk include Max
Headroom (tv show) and Blade Runner (movie). Cyberpunk is
special in that it has evolved from a purely literary movement
to a realistic subculture. Many "techno-punks" (ie:
[hackers]) are considered cyberpunks. Other contributing
factors to the cyberpunk subculture include: virtual reality,
hallucinogenic and [nootropic] drugs, and industrial and punk
music. For an in-depth, detailed look at cyberpunk fiction
and cyberpunk culture, "Storming the Reality Studio", ed. by
Larry McCaffery is suggested.

Cyberspace - "The electronic frontier." A completely virtual
environment: the sum total of all [BBSes], computer networks,
and other [virtual communities]. Unique in that it is
constantly being changed, exists only virtually, can be
practically infinite in "size", communication occurs
instantaneously world-wide - physical location is completely
irrelevant most of the time. Some include video and telephone
transmissions as part of cyberspace.

Deck Cowboys - Futuristic version of a computer [hacker] or a
modern-day [cyberpunk].

Electronic Frontier Foundation - (EFF). Organization founded by
Mitch Kapor (of Lotus fame) and John Perry Barlow (writer and
Grateful Dead songwriter) to establish laws for [cyberspace]
and apply the constitution to [virtual communities].

Flame - disagreement occuring in [cyberspace]. Common on [Usenet].

Fractals - Images created using [chaos theory]. A mish-mash of
colors presented in a pattern that repeats itself many times
over. A popular type of fractal image is one created using
the "Mandlebrot set". Fractals are considered [cyberdelic]
art.

Gibson, William - Considered by most to be the "father" of
[cyberpunk], along with [Bruce Sterling]. His works include
the infamous "Neuromancer", "Count Zero", "Mona Lisa
Overdrive" (these 3 works are known as the [sprawl] series),
"The Difference Engine" with which he was co-author with [Bruce
Sterling], and "Burning Chrome" a collection of short
stories. Hist latest work is a poem in "[Agrippa: A Book of the
Dead]". Gibson says he will no longer be writing the "classic"
[cyberpunk] novels he is famous for. His next work is entitled
"Virtual Light" and is futuristic fiction.

Grep - search, or scan.

Hacker - 60's (1st) generation (orig. MIT): one who tinkers with
software, electronics, computer hardware, etc. 80's (2nd)
[WarGames] generation: one who enters computer systems
without permission with either malicious or non-malicious
intent, to gain, alter, or destroy information (labelled as
[crackers] by the 60's generation). 90's (3rd) generation:
often called [cyberpunks], mostly non-malicious [crackers]
interested in information for the sake of information, and
not hacking for the sake of the hack - sometimes calling
themselves "information liberators", they have re-adopted
more of the original hacker ethic of the 60's which states
mainly "all information should be free", "access to computers
should be unlimited and total" and "promote decentralization".
This new, 3rd generation is commonly associated with the
computer underground, despite its mostly non-malicious intent.

Industrial - A subculture revolving around industrial music, a
collection of mostly electronically created sounds and
samples that results in a fierce explosion of sound labelled
by many as "the new punk". This subculture is generally
anti-political, anti-aesthetic in nature.

Internet - A large and very popular world-wide computer network
begun by the Defense Department in the 60's that connects
educational institutions, corporations, organizations, and
military and government installations around the globe.
Some organizations exist that offer access to the Internet to
the general public for an hourly/monthly/yearly fee. See the
"BBSes" section of this article for more info, particularly
those BBSes listed with "public access unix" next to them.
Suggested are places like the [WELL], [MindVox], Nyx (which is
free of cost), NetCom, etc. Many Internet users partake in
reading and contributing to [Usenet], playing [MUD]s, FTPing
text files and programs free of charge at the various FTP
sites, and 'telnet'ing to other Internet sites. Because of
its accessibility at a relatively low cost, size (the largest
computer network in the world), connectivity, and infinite
amounts of information, many network users prefer the Internet
to such services as CompuServe (often called Compu$erve on
the Internet) or Prodigy (which is more restricting in its
content). The Internet has something to offer for everyone.
Other portions of this file such as the suggested newsgroups
list, list of FTP sites, and list of 'telnet'able services and
sites, should be very helpful to the new Internet user. Once
you gain access to the Internet, it is suggested that you read
the 'news.announce.newusers' and 'news.newusers.questions'
and 'news.answers' newsgroups on [Usenet]. You might also want
to read the file 'NixPub: Listing of Public Access Unix sites'
to find an Internet dial-up (BBS/Service) in your area.

IRC - [Internet] Relay Chat. Realtime communication forums between
[Internet] users all over the world.

Legion of Doom - (LoD). A legendary group of [hackers] from the
[computer underground]. When they disbanded, some members
went on to form a computer security firm (ComSec), Loyd
Blankenship wrote GURPS Cyberpunk for [Steve Jackson Games]
and some ended up in jail from [Operation Sundevil].

Matrix - Term coined by William Gibson which refers to the consensual
hallucination of [cyberspace].

MindVox - A [virtual community] in [cyberspace], also a [BBS]
connected to the [Internet]. A nexus of the [computer
underground] and [cyberpunk] and [virtual reality] begun by
Phantom Access Technologies, former members of the [Legion of
Doom]. See also the [WELL]

Mirrorshades - A very important collection of [cyberpunk] fiction by
various authors, most of whom are labelled as the [mirrorshades
group]. This book is edited by [Bruce Sterling] and should be
available in most bookstores.

Mirrorshades Group - Original collection of [cp] authors which
includes William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Tom Maddox, Lewis
Shiner, John Shirley, SF Eye magazine editor Steve Brown,
Rudy Rucker, Pat Cadigan, and others.

Mondo 2000 - Very popular [cyberpunk] and [new edge] magazine.
Subscription information is available elsewhere in this file.

MUD - Multi-User Domain, Multi-User Dungeon, or Multi-User Dimension.
MUDs are multi-user role-playing-games of sorts that exist on
the [Internet] for entertainment purposes. MUDs are
essentially text-based [virtual worlds] which players
(participants) may explore, change, or add on to. In some
cases, the MUD is not actually a "game" with scores, player
attributes, levels, etc., but some MUDs are set up this way.
MUDs tend to be based around different science fiction genres
such as fantasy, space, or even [cyberpunk]. Some MUD
environments have no defining characteristics.

Nanotechnology - the science of "micro-machines". Small gears or
other machines seen only by a microscope, that can be used in
areas such as medicine and health, art, and other
technologies.

Net - A computer network. Often used to mean the [Internet] when
referred to as "the net".

Netrunner - see [hacker].

New Edge - Fringe culture and fringe science, mostly techno-oriented,
and very popular in Southern California. [Mondo 2000] is a
magazine devoted to the new edge.

Nootropics - A new science revolving around drugs used to increase
intelligence, aid in memory, enhance brain activity, etc.
Touted as a fad by some, others claim that use of nootropics
actually work. See also [SmartDrinks].

Operation Sundevil - Secret Service operation begun in 1990 intended
to destroy the [computer underground] by confiscating [BBSes]
and detaining [hackers].

Phrack - An important magazine existing only in [cyberspace], of
interest to the [computer underground]. It's founder, Craig
Neidorf, now works for the [Electronic Frontier Foundation].

Phreaker - [Hacking] the phone system. Usually meaning to get phone
calls for free, whether by [boxing] or [cc fraud]. Individual
phreakers are called phreaks.

Pirate - One who copies software illegally. Commonly associated with
the [computer underground]. Although commonplace, pirates
are looked down upon as with [codez d00dz].

Post-modern - Literary, artistic, cultural, and philosophical
movement revolving around the post-industrial world in which
we live, and the unique aspects of the trends of modern
society.

Raves - A subculture revolving around all-night dance parties.
Typically, the parties are generally illegal and thus a
complex process is involved to find out where they are
located. Rave music is generally [techno], the parties
usually include 1 or more DJs. Also present in many cases are
"chill out rooms" which feature more ambient music. Lasers,
blaring music, [cyberdelic] images, [SmartDrinks] and drugs
(most often MDMA {X, XTC, Ecstacy, E}, LSD {acid}, ketamine,
or nootropics) are all general contributors to the rave
experience. Raves are usually held in warehouses, and last
until the next morning. Another large part of rave culture is
the flyers - used to find out where your next party will be.
Raves are meant to be very happy events, everyone ideally
should be open and free, laying aggressions and inhibitions
aside for the night. Some have likened the rave experience
to "a weekly roving [techno-]woodstock for the 90's." Rave
fashion includes over-sized baggy t-shirts and pants, hooded
sweat-shirts, ski caps, and usually bright colors, as well as
accessories such as whistles, Cat In The Hat hats, "doctor"
masks, VapoRub, etc.

Slipstream - Term used to denote cyberpunk fiction, particularly
pre-1984 fictional works that have been influential to the
[mirrorshades group] or that closely resemble cyberpunk, but
are sometimes outside of the sf genre. An example would be
William S. Burroughs.

SmartDrugs - [nootropics].

SmartDrinks - Similar to SmartDrugs, or [nootropics], the intent of
these substances, loaded with vitamins, minerals, amino
acids, and other healthy substances, is to aid in brain
functioning. Smart Drinks are most often consumed at
[raves], thus, the purpose of some smart drinks is to
"energize" the drinker, not to make them smarter.

Sprawl - Word used by [William Gibson] to mean large mega-cities, and
places where different cities collide. Southern California
and New York City might be early examples of the sprawl. This
word is used often in modern times as "urban sprawl".

Steve Jackson Games - RPG manufacturers which have played a key role
in the evolution of [cyberpunk] and the [computer
underground]. Operators of the Illuminati BBS and makers of
GURPS Cyberpunk, an RPG guide written by Loyd Blankenship, a
member of the [Legion of Doom].

Sterling, Bruce - considered by most to be the "co-founder" of
[cyberpunk] along with [William Gibson]. He is the editor of
"Mirrorshades: A cyberpunk anthology", which is considered
the quintessential collection of [cp] works by the
[mirrorshades group]. Some of his other works include
"Islands in the Net", "Schizmatrix", "The Involution
Ocean", "The Artificial Kid", "The Difference Engine" which
he co-authored with [Gibson] and "The Hacker Crackdown" a
non-fiction account of the [computer underground] and
[Operation Sundevil], including the [Electronic Frontier
Foundation], [Phrack], the [Legion of Doom], [Steve Jackson
Games], etc.

Social Engineering - Technique often by which [hackers] or [crackers]
acquire information, such as names and passwords. Essential
a modern-day con, often conducted via phone conversations,
such as portraying onesself as a teclo employee.

Techno- - prefix similar to cyber-, referring to anything which has
its roots in current or futuristic technology.

Techno - type of music made almost entirely with the help of
computers, revolving around a fast-paced drum beat (as high
as 160 BPM), sampling, and synthesizers.

Teledildonics - Virtual sex in a [virtual environment]. Term often
used by the [new edge] community.

2600 - A popular hardcopy magazine devoted to the [computer
underground]. Subscription information is obtained elsewhere
in this file.

Usenet - A collection of "newsgroups" on the [Internet], in which
[Internet] users may post or read messages on almost any
subject imaginable. The topics of discussion are divided up
into the individual newsgroups, which total about 2000 on
average. Usenet is divided into various large sections,
including the 'alt'ernative newsgroups, the 'comp'uter
newsgroups, the 'sci'ence newsgroups and the 'talk'
newsgroups, among others. A suggested list of newsgroups is
contained in this file. Some groups are moderated, while most
remain completely uncensored.

Virtual Community - any group or gathering that exists in
[cyberspace]. This could be a [BBS], a [hacking] group, a
[net], or even a [zaibatsu].

Virtual Culture - the collection of [virtual communities], and the
cultural aspects unique to those communities.

Virtual Environment - a [virtual world].

Virtual Reality - a consensual hallucination of a world existing only
in [cyberspace]. Modern day virtual reality uses helmets,
gloves, and body suits to create such a world, which is first
created on a computer and connected to the vr devices.
The goal of virtual reality is to generate a completely
alternate reality. Research in vr includes networking
people, so spacial limitations are meaningless. The
possibilities of vr-generated environments are as limitless
as the imagination.

Virtual World - a world existing in [cyberspace] created and used
with [virtual reality] technologies.

VMB - (Voice MailBox). Used (often illegally) by [phreaks] as a
means of communication.

WELL - The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link. An important gridpoint in
the [matrix], a [virtual community] in [cyberspace], also a
[BBS] connected to the [Internet]. A group concerned mostly
with [cyberpunk], [virtual reality], [nootropics], and other
aspects of the [new edge].

Wirehead - a hardware [hacker].

Zaibatsu - Japanese term used a lot by [William Gibson] that means a
large mega-corporation, such as Sony for example.

Xeentav: /* Shawn's procedure */

In order to provide internet service to the modem of our old TiVo, I made an applescript that ran a shell script to forward its internet connection to a serial port.

We've arvried at the end of the line and I have what I need!

===Apple Script===
Pulling all together into an Apple Script app:
set pppdTivoScript to "LocalHostIP=`ifconfig | grep 'inet 172' | awk '{ print $2 }'`; KeyspanPort=`ls /dev | grep USA | grep cu`; echo \"Sharing ip connection from $LocalHostIP via pppd\"; /usr/sbin/pppd dump noauth proxyarp /dev/$KeyspanPort 115200 $LocalHostIP:172.16.1.38 passive local maxfail 0 nocrtscts xonxoff"
set scriptresult to do shell script pppdTivoScript with administrator privileges
display dialog "Output of pppdTiVoScript:" & return & scriptresult

===Still to do===
*Generalize the apple script or shell script to find out what the router's address-range is and use that instead of assuming it's 172.etc.
**Split pppdTivoScript into parts and parse the scriptresults in Apple Script, giving the user feedback along the way.
*OR leave out the local address, PPPD will take the first address of the computer which is usually right.
*Make sure the IP address assigned to the serial port is unique but still in the router's range. It might not be possible to find out which addresses are taken.
**Only grep the "en[0-9]:" lines and the 5 that follow them (use option "-A 5"), since you could have all sorts of other IP addresses for loopback and virtual systems (like Parallels Desktop). Then grep the inet lines from that.:
ifconfig | grep -A 5 "en[0-9]:" | grep -o "inet .* netmask .* broadcast .*"
**The assigned ip address should be much higher than inet, fit in netmask, and be lower than broadcast. This could be dangerous in a large network where you don't know all the clients, so only do this at home or if you know the upper limits of the clients' addresses.
*OR use an IP address in the private network range so that there won't be any possible interference, unless we unfortunately choose the same private network range that's currently being served to the host by the network it's on.

==Components==
===Handspring Visor Deluxe===
;History:http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/Handspring-Inc-Company-History.html
===Amiga 500===
Minimized materials, but still meeting demand for expandability through externalized components pioneered by Apple and Commodore consumer-level predecessors.
===Amiga 2500===
The largest Amiga, a workhorse, with expansion bays for drives and cards.
===Amiga 1200===
The portable member of a later generation of Amigas.
===Amiga 3000/UX===
Runs Unix or Amiga.
===Amiga 3000===
Compact desktop.
===Apple eMate===
1997
===Apple Mac SE===
1987.
===Apple Mac SE FDHD===
This is the 1989 introduction of a high density floppy drive and internal hard drive to the portable series. It looks just like all the previous portables, but is much more powerful in that one doesn't need to constantly insert floppies to run programs, but one can use DOS formatted floppies to transfer files to PCs. Also remarkable for a small microcomputer is the expansion slot.
===Apple Mac SE/30===
Sold for almost $5000 in 1990, including most of the power (excepting graphics) of the desktop box that sold alongside this.

===Apple iBook G3===
1999. http://lowendmac.com/pb2/original-ibook-g3-300-mhz.html
===Apple Power Mac G4===
1999. Advertised as the first supercomputer for consumers, since it crossed the boundary for US limits on exports of powerful computers.
===Apple Airport Base Station===
1999. Perhaps the pinnacle of expression of the rounded aesthetic, further along the iMac lines.

==Description==
A multimedia extravaganza featuring the personal collection of two Gen-Xers, this exhibition incorporates functioning computers, slide show viewers, personal computing devices, and visual displays—both print and digital. Information technology devices from 1981-2000 inform this retrospective conversation between design and computing. In this exploration of the physical history of information technology, some objects are classified as cutting edge design or functional innovations; others feature graphic or design software that served as visualization tools. Themes of the exhibition include the history of the Macintosh as a design object, portability, and the Commodore Amiga computers’ tools and software related to visualization, drafting, and music.

==Preparation==
*Replace batteries in computers. Old batteries prevent storage in parameter RAM, causing difficult hardware problems. See [[Amiga#Batteries]].
*Replace or repair Mac LC power supply. It's not supplying 5 and 12 V, and it's making a 2Hz click.
*Create list of all computers to display and create floor plan, determine placement, # of power supplies needed.
*Opening or closing reception?
*Posters for advertising show and educational posters for show
*LCD Screen application/ movie
*Scan images from Amiga manuals
*Screen-grab images from Amiga audio/visual/design programs.

==Exhibit==
Alison and Shawn are preparing to exhibit information technology from 1981-2000 for one week, fall 2011, at Hartell Gallery, Cornell U. (Sept 18-24).
===Posters===
All sections have a 3'w x 4'h poster with a common header, green type on black stripe, like early terminals. Each poster/pedestal item has a black backdrop. Poster text in a neutral, 20th century font (monospace?).

===Sections===
====Apple Design Evolution====
;SE:Portable with handle. Monitor over drive. Beveled edges. Facing up 5°. Takes the original Mac design (Mac 128, Mac 512, Mac Plus), adds pinstripes.
;LC:Pizza box, more pin stripes. Also tilted up 5°.
;7200/7100/Centris 650:Thicker boxes with slightly rounded face and tail. This design common to many 1992-1999 Macs.
;8600:Large upended box. Touch of color.
;All In One (AIO) G3:Rounded beige and see-through. Pinstripes replaced by perforation, but that idea begins and ends with this model. It's topologically similar to the classic Mac portables, but too heavy to carry around.
;iMac:Very round. Since it's clear, it shows why it's a teardrop on its side, being a smoothing of the shape of the CRT that dominates the interior.
;G4:Bringing round to the tall box. Actually this started with the Bondi Blue G3. The G4 is the same shape but grey.
;iBook G3:Round and color to the portable market. Establishing that color computers are for the "consumer" oriented lines, while grey/black is for the "professional" user?
;Powerbook G3:Smooth curves, but without perforations of the AIO or clear plastic of the i-line.
;iMac aesthetically inspired items
:Wacom Graphite
:Harmon Kardon iSub
:USB Floppy—VST
:LaCie USB/FW CDRW

====Handheld====
*Handspring Visor
**Practice writing in Graffiti.
*eMate
**Write in Newton

====Amigas====
*Consoles
**Amiga 500
**Amiga 1200
*Boxes
**Amiga 2500
**Amiga 3000U/X
**Software
*Amiga 3000 running:
**Sim Earth
**IntroCAD
**Mods
**Deluxe Music?

====Chat Station====
*G3 Tower
*iMac Graphite
Users can chat with each other in our special chat room or on Amiga World's #aminet channel: irc.amigaworld.net. See [[chat software]].

====Guest Book====
*SE FDHD 1989

==Components==
===Handspring Visor Deluxe===
;History:http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/Handspring-Inc-Company-History.html
===Amiga 500===
Minimized materials, but still meeting demand for expandability through externalized components pioneered by Apple and Commodore consumer-level predecessors.
===Amiga 2500===
The largest Amiga, a workhorse, with expansion bays for drives and cards.
===Amiga 1200===
The portable member of a later generation of Amigas.
===Amiga 3000/UX===
Runs Unix or Amiga.
===Amiga 3000===
Compact desktop.
===Apple eMate===
1997
===Apple Mac SE===
1987.
===Apple Mac SE FDHD===
This is the 1989 introduction of a high density floppy drive and internal hard drive to the portable series. It looks just like all the previous portables, but is much more powerful in that one doesn't need to constantly insert floppies to run programs, but one can use DOS formatted floppies to transfer files to PCs. Also remarkable for a small microcomputer is the expansion slot.
===Apple Mac SE/30===
Sold for almost $5000 in 1990, including most of the power (excepting graphics) of the desktop box that sold alongside this.

===Apple Mac LC===
Little pizza box Mac.
===Apple PowerBook 160===
1992
===Apple Mac 7100/66===
1994

1998
===Apple iMac DV SE===
1999
===Apple PowerBook G3 Wall Street II===
1998. http://lowendmac.com/pb2/wallstreet-powerbook-g3-ii.html
===Apple iBook G3===
1999. http://lowendmac.com/pb2/original-ibook-g3-300-mhz.html
