decle Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hi everyone, Ever wondered how @nurmix posts AtariAge messages from his K/C? Wonder no more! I have a short view review of @Ron The Cat's K/C running Jack's Conversational Intelli-talk, the software he uses... Let me know what you think.

Cheers decle --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sent from my Keyboard Component using Jack's Conversational Intelli-talk Cassette Thank tou very much Decle! I was indeed chatting with Intvsteve about that signature and got amazed by the combination of those 40 year old excellent hardwares. Now it’s very clear!? And it’s amazing!? But are you also Ron the Cat??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Nice video! The hand waving was so meta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Phenomenal! It made me smile so much. I particularly liked the typos. When @decle writes the message and says "... short video review," but types "view review," it tickled me when I saw that the post in AA goes like that as well. Well done! Impressive bit of technical theater. :) -dZ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intellivotion Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I finally found some time to watch this and, yes, it's awesome! The conversation at the beginning of the video reminds me a lot of another famous human-machine conversation, which implied more serious consequences though: Joshua: Shall we play a game? David Lightman: Love to. How about Global Thermonuclear War? Joshua: Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of chess? David Lightman: Later. Let's play Global Thermonuclear War. Joshua: Fine. Mr. decle, thank you for sharing with us all the fun that you had doing this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decle Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 For those, like @DZ-Jay, @Lathe26, @Steve Jones and @Morpheus, who expressed an interest in how Intelli-talk works, here's a (much shorter) follow up video showing Intelli-talk connecting to a UK BBS using dial-up. It also explains how the posting to AtariAge was done, what was real, what wasn't etc. Naturally, this will contain some spoilers...

So ... the "fake" part is that the K/C is not really making RESTful calls to AA, but actually going through your laptop, who is then brokering communications with the AtariAge API, formatting it, and sending it back to the K/C for display ... live? All on software built purposefully for this demo, to actually do all that for the sake of veracity? Most impressive, sir. I have to say that you have to win some sort of award for the most trouble and effort invested on a prank. ? dZ.

What you did was close to what I later suspected: it was partially fake but also real at the same time. Awesome to see how it was actually done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nurmix Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 How dare you reveal the secret of my AA posting method! We spoke of this in confidence, Decle! I took you at your word... Actually, this is fantastic! Who knew when I created that silly little throw-away signature line it would inspire you to do this!? Love it! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
