Haha, so my audience passed out, but I still managed to finish a piece in SAI! The verdict is: yes, I like SAI. Even without the tablet pen pressure it was incredibly easy to use. I have a couple broken keys on my keyboard, but I was able to change the keyboard shortcuts to adapt to my issues.

It’s not really surprising who I decided to use as my test subject.

The Grid Compass: The First Laptop in Space

The Grid Compass debuted in 1982 and revolutionized the world of portable computers. On November 28, 1983, the first unit launched aboard NASA's Space Shuttle Columbia, making it the first laptop to reach space. British industrial designer Bill Moggridge created the iconic clamshell design, which became the foundation for all modern laptops. NASA used the device as SPOC (Shuttle Portable On-Board Computer) for onboard navigation and telemetry purposes.

Technical Specifications:

Processor: Intel 8086 16-bit

RAM: 256 KB

Non-volatile memory: 384 KB bubble memory

Display: 9.5-inch electroluminescent, 25x80 characters

Modem: 300/1200 baud

Case: magnesium alloy

Weight: approximately 11 pounds (5 kg)

Price: USD 8,150 (1982)

The Grid Compass was incredibly rugged. It even survived the 1986 Challenger disaster and continued to work. Today, it is preserved in the Smithsonian Museum as one of the most important computer innovations in space exploration history.

1980s Fashion

Are you preparing for a cozy afternoon of knitting, or are you about to pilot a mech through a dystopian vaporwave greenhouse? Why not both? This 1981 look masterfully pairs a chunky, textured plum-colored sweater, complete with floral-like popcorn stitching, with futuristic speed-dealer sunglasses and a matching visor. It is the ultimate ‘I have a crafts fair at 3:00 and a laser-tag tournament at 3:15’ aesthetic. Nothing says high-performance athletics quite like heavy knit wool and a stiff, popped collar.
