What Hacker News says

8 sources
Your comment got me thinking: "Wouldn't be nice if existed an 'awesome list' for this kind of content?" After a brief google search the best I could find is this [0] and it seems to be abandoned. Does anyone know a better source for this type of content? I'm leaving some random links to great channels that produce this kind of content: - CGA Graphics - Not as bad as you thought! [1] - DVD-RAM: The Disc that Behaved like a Flash Drive [2] - The Story of Super Mario Bros. 3 | Gaming Historian [3] [0] - https://github.com/watson/awesome-computer-history [1] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niKblgZupOc [2] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecH3OU0R4ls [3] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxT6IwUtLSU
