Code breakers honoured in Milton Keynes - MKFM 106.3FM - goo.gl/alerts/W6XMsF #GoogleAlerts

Big round of applause for @tnmoc! I've been at their Block H Rebooted: Honouring Colossus & the GPO legacy event today. If you donated to their appeal it's been put to great use. No more leaky roof over Colossus & beautiful meeting room & cafe! They also mounted new WOS plaque 👏

Look at this stack of donated ICT 1301 tapes! Can you guess the total data capacity? 🤔 While we love receiving equipment donations to keep our machines running, we also rely on financial support to maintain and restore them. Please donate to support! ➡️ tnmoc.org/make-a-donation

@9600 Let me know on timing for the new one. Keen to see inside all that (feckin) heavy kit!

I don't usually do selfies, but since it's #HugYourMainframe day.

And Wuthering Bytes 2024 is off to a start with a welcome from @LaurieJ!

A fantastic opening keynote from Professor Simon Lavington, looking at just a few of the achievements of pioneering computer programmer and entrepreneur Dina St Johnston.

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I? Like if you do RT if you really do It would provide £40bn in tax, DOUBLE the £20bn deficit.

@tillyblyth @rj_boon Can you put up an Amazon link??

With a chapter from me and @rj_boon on Mediators, media, and meaning: curating digital objects at the Science Museum

@tnmoc I’m intrigued! What was the fix!

Sometimes faults found in early versions of equipment are fixed by making additions to completed boards, like these logic boards from #DEC VT 220 terminals which underwent fault diagnosis in our workshop🧑‍🔬 Oh...did we mention we've recently opened a new DEC #Exhibition? 🙃

@fesshole Quite the perfect micro story!

I come from a working class background but now firmly middle class with a senior banking job. Still go to a barber in a dodgy area which is full of absolute nutters. Got a cover story that I'm a decorator but going to have to stop going as Frank wants me to paint his front room.

@JebandGwyn Congratulations!

Back together again! 😁❤️♥️❤️😁

It was great visiting the National Museum of Computing @tnmoc this weekend. A truly remarkable place with amazing #Volunteers; they are all so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. A special shout out to @taylorandy for staying after hours to show us #Colossus. A must-visit in the UK!!

What a day! Block H welcomed in excess of 150 HistoCrypt delegates, where they enjoyed a guided tour through pivotal moments in #Cryptographic #History, from #Enigma to the groundbreaking #Colossus 🖥️ Thank you to Sir Dermot Turing for trusting us with this opportunity!

@GCHQ @VirtualColossus @EnglishHeritage It’s not a bloody computer!!!

The pioneering work of engineer Tommy Flowers has been recognised in the form of @englishheritage's latest blue plaque 🔵 Flowers and his team designed COLOSSUS at Dollis Hill, which was later used to break German cipher systems at @bletchleypark in #WWII.

Earlier this year some of our students took part in a national initiative called #AstroPi, set up by @RaspberryPi_org Each student wrote 30s of code that was sent up to the @Space_Station on a #RaspberryPi and then ran in space during May. Pictured is Riley with his certificate😊

This is mad Sunak’s wife set up a company with new Reform MP Rupert Lowe in 2017 It went bust owing north of £6 million & the address that Sunak’s wife Murty was registered at - 83 Victoria Street - is now the registered address for Reform The plot thickens

@JebandGwyn @jimmi14320897 Beautiful!!!

Another sexy atmospheric edit by the gorgeous @jimmi14320897 ♥️❤️♥️😘😘

Well, well, well. Look who has emerged. The bloated liar comes into the open to support little half-mast's failing campaign. The man who wrecked Britain to feed his own narcissism. Go fuck yourself Johnson. You fucking corrupt, lying bastard. @BorisJohnson @Conservatives

Always remember, he did it all for money. Sold out his country and will be forever remembered for doing so. The name Farage will stand alongside Quisling in the lexicon.
