Because @tschak keeps me so busy debugging so many different versions of #FujiNet, I need to setup a "Wall of FujiNet" in my office. Plan is to build some kind of small rack where the Adam and PVM are so I can jam in a CoCo 3, Atari XEGS, and Commodore 128. This is the before picture. #RetroComputing #VintageComputing

Fun. I think my Model F keyboard got dropped and now some keys don't work, some keys act like they are being pressed when they aren't, and some keys type other keys. #RetroComputing #VintageComputing

Was kann ich denn noch sinnvolles mit einem 15 Jahre alten MacBook Pro anfangen? Reagiert auf jeden Klick seeeeehr entschleunigt, aber hey, es reagiert noch.

🤷‍♂️ "Very little is readily available"
🤷‍♀️ "I couldn't find much"
🤷‍♂️ "Information is scarce and unreliable at best"

For nearly 20 years, writers have been apologizing for the dearth of details about one particular provocatively-titled piece of webcomics history.

It's time to start filling in the blanks!

Passend auf Weihnachten haben wir den nächsten Vortrags-Mitschnitt vom VCFe Hünfeld fertig geschnitten und online gestellt: es geht um Assembler-Programmierung des C64, und welche Hürden man dabei gelegentlich umschiffen musste. Viel Spaß mit Andreas: https://youtu.be/ZmM1F6sJFtQ #VCFeZuse #VCFe #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #commodore #c64

i realize that this only speaks to 0.1% of you, but some useful info for NeXTStation owners:

the battery backup that shipped with the nextstation is a BR 2/3A type battery - a chub gherkin that costs about $7-12 USD and are not easy to find these days.

thankfully i've discovered a modern direct swap equivalent: the CR123A. it is used in various types of LED flashlights. it outputs the same voltage.

the only difference i noticed is that the CR123A is about 0.5mm longer due to slightly more protruding positive terminal. thankfully, the battery holder accepts it (it just puts more pressure on the holder's metal flexi-tab). the CR123A can be found for $1 each.

As some may know, I'm a semi-avid typewriter collector. Now, due to somewhat related circumstances beyond anyone's control, @ckvi basically forced my hand and convinced me to get an old dot matrix printer - Epson LX-800, late-1980s - and a corresponding early-2000s HP laptop with a parallel printer port.

So here's a time-lapse of printing the GameFAQs guideline for Breath of Fire III. I love the sound of a soprano office buzzsaw! #epsonLX800 #dotMatrixPrinter #vintageComputing #undiagnosedButEveryoneIsQuiteSure

Getting back to some projects after a bit of a hiatus. First is getting two of my socket 370 industrial SBC fully tested for a couple of mini retro PCs.

I'm also working on a universal retro panel for industrial SBC but that isn't quite ready for public eyes yet.

Specs of the system are as follows:

* BCM EBC5612
* Intel Pentium III 1.13GHz
* 256MB RAM
* 64GB MicroSD to IDE
* ASUS DVD-RW

Did a major cleanup and a shelf expansion in my basement. Also labeled the entire inventory with #homebox, a truly great piece of software that can be easily #selfhosted

Once again, I kindly invite you all to explore my museum of Vintage pocketable computing tech here: https://museum.tiredsysadmin.cc

🧵 I'm currently much enjoying a video made about our 1992 Hoi Amiga game by retro-game streamer Bill Bull on Twitch.

Thanks to @ponpon for pointing me to the video.

Heart-warming to read the stream's comments, see the screenshot.

Here's the video:
