Just finished Metroid Prime 1 for the first time (Wii version).
I first played this game on the Gamecube when I was about 13. I could never get past the Omega Pirate.
Good game. I think it's admirable that despite the change to a first person shooter presentation it's still very unmistakably a Metroid game.
Finishing a game you couldn't finish as a kid is a very uniquely fulfilling experience, I don't have that many left at this point, so it's becoming an increasingly rare one for me...

This week we visited Le Redoutable (former nuclear submarine), and inside was this very cute computer-looking thing, with pdp11-like switches.

Thing is, trying to ddg it didn't yield anything, the manufacturer itself (Sintra ?) doesn't even have a wikipedia page, let alone for this specific model.

Does this ring any bells with anyone here? Especially with French retrocomputing nerd?

@gabriel How XML is unforgiving is one of the few non-terrible things about such encoding.

Quirks mode in HTML is a disaster as web developers get away with throwing literal garbage input at the HTML renderer and getting something displayed - at the cost of making it a 10,000 man year effort to write a HTML renderer that works on most websites.
