You know what stinks?  I find a really cool thing online somewhere, early in the week, or even in a previous week, like today’s unrelated link.  Between me finding it and this always-on-Sunday post, other people encounter it, the link gets reposted everywhere, and it’s old hat by the time you see it here.  Yeah, I’m complaining like it’s hipster linking!

• Has anyone noticed how there’s been an explosion in nontraditional peripherals lately?  Seriously, follow those links.  I know there’s more.
• A Roguelike Primer.  An excellent overview of a lot of different roguelikes.  I didn’t know NetHack had an isometric view.  (via)
• There’s a programming language called Quylthulg.  That makes me happy, in a D&D/roguelike kind of way.
• Abandoned Apples.  I feel bad about the Apple ][ units, and the fatmacs.  (via I forget)
• yes `yes no`.  The comments on the linking page note how the linking description is all wrong (and here’s corrections), but one comment is fun: shell Russian Roulette: [ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && rm -rf / || echo *Click* (via)
• A note about Google Reader’s demise from an interview with one of the creators.  It strikes me that there aren’t more people mad that RSS feeds are hard to find.  There’s lots of conversations on Twitter and Facebook and Google Plus and other places, and I can’t see them without getting an account for each, and logging in.  The overall effect of this separation is that it’s hard to follow any one source.
• The Thing, an art BBS.
• Here’s a chart of possible Google Reader replacements, plus my query earlier this week let to a number of comment suggestions.  tt-rss looks like a good candidate, because I don’t have to worry about someone deciding not to run it anymore.  There’s also newsbeuter, though maybe that’s too minimal.

Your unrelated link of the week: I almost can’t tell this is a parody.  Actually, it’s more like a double level of parody.  Seen on this inexplicable, wonderful Tumblog; found via arts inscrutable.
