Apollo On Board Computer Emulator
frankk74 writes "For those of you interested in Historical Computing and the Apollo manned spaceflights Ron Burkey has created a open source emulation of the Apollo Guidance Computer called vAGC. I use it as my desktop clock of choice. Note it only keeps mission time so after 24 hours you have reset the time :-). P.S. Another cool Apollo toy free and payware can be found here."

Are the rights of a chinese worker worth less than the rights of an American worker? If not, then we should not be supporting a government who denies people their fundamental rights and pollutes the environment.If so, then those rights were never cherished by us in the first place, or we have been blinded by greed.
Yes, I realize the irony of using a Chinese-made computer to deliver and anti-Chinese message.

Lots of bad things happen when people choose to ignore human nature.

Your family business seems to be complicated. Do you mind if we don't participate?
Well, I am from West Virginia.
I'll recompile YOUR kernel, and it should be quite painful.
STFU.
