Symbols for Legacy Computing
Symbols for Legacy Computing is a Unicode block containing graphic characters that were used for various home computers from the 1970s and 1980s and in Teletext broadcasting standards. It includes characters from the Amstrad CPC, MSX, Mattel Aquarius, RISC OS, MouseText, Atari ST, TRS-80 Color Computer, Oric, Texas Instruments TI-99/4A, TRS-80, Minitel, Teletext, ATASCII, PETSCII, ZX80, and ZX81 character sets, as well as semigraphics characters.[3][4]

gollark: In the end, both are almost entirely wiped out, and the iArmies™ of Apple take over.
gollark: The vast drone armies of Amazon face off against Google's electronic warfare and data processing capability, as well as its vast army of brainwashed YouTube users.
gollark: One day Amazon is going to have ICBMs for some reason, and become a major military power.
gollark: Prime+ would only allow you delivery from less cool ground-based launch sites.
gollark: Prime++ would get you orbital *unshielded* delivery.
