fun computer fact:
Most "IoT" devices have an internal serial port that isn't connected to anything. Kernel logs are often directed to this port. Billions of appliances are out there screaming into the void, but nobody is listening.

With the power of the serial port on the iphone notch, you can connect and securely screw a serial cable to swing your iphone around like a whip. It's both an improvised weapon and a trendy and fashionable way to carry your iphone.

On my first computer, the external interface (serial port) could do at max 9,600 baud.
Thunderbolt 5 is 120Gb/s, which is about (ignoring for a moment protocol overhead for either serial or Thunderbolt) THIRTEEN MILLION times faster.
Bonkers.

descent was the first game on the PC to justify getting a HOTAS & that meant configuring a HOTAS off of a serial port adapter in DOS
and it was *still* worth it

"Billy this is Descent - a fully 3D sci-fi vehicle shooter that allows for free movement on all axes, features fully textured mapped graphics, and runs playably on a 486. Its defect is that it induces nausea in 1 out of 3 players."
