Thank you so much for reading, blamensir ^_^
Part of my research has also gone into "raging against a machine" in a sense: https://discourse.32bit.cafe/t/creation-of-computers-on-the-local-level/1017 But a couple of those links I hadn't seen before. Thank you!
LLT, you probably know much more on this topic than I do; your post is a treasure trove of resources. Thank *you* for sharing!
