My controversial stance on modding retro hardware: I’m fine with modern drop in functional equivalents, but I don’t want a replacement that implements extra features. I want the original experience extended past the life of some of the components

Way fewer people will read my long form posts than watch a video, but Reason number 27 why I put the bulk of my effort into long form posts on a platform I have full control over:

I truly love this movie despite its strange plot holes. This novelization actually does a good job of making sense of some parts of the plot the screen version misses

Package arrived from @FW4511 Is it weird that I really love the box? And I do need more Commodore Notebooks in my life

Visiting with a friend yesterday and he politely said, “This Commodore thing is close to obsession man.” “What do you mean?” I replied. He took my phone from my hand and turned it over. Okay, maybe just a little…

I kinda feel like I AM keeping up with the Commodore. #commodore #c64 #tigerbaron

I happen to have a RedBird TD2 AND a mobile Commodore 64 running Kennedy Approach which is an Air Traffic Control game. How cool would it be to make a game that interfaces with the RedBird? I have an idea for a data interface…

Working at the airport office today but I don’t want to slow down. Mobile 64 rig for the win. The next cipher to tackle is RC4. This one might take more brain cells than I actually possess.

Stuff to play with and then review from DIY Chris came today. Gal PLA, 4146 RAM tester, flash-able Kernal/BASIC/character rom chip and an adapter for these types of chips for my 866 programmer.

My 128 trouble maker is on the mend. I’m short two 4146s to test completely but mail should bring them soon. Socketed now and even recapped a lot of the Ceramics too. Lower checks out anyway :)
