I’m a very old computer programmer. I started on 8bits and I’m still going but with 56bits more now. I wrote a few games and now sort of still do. I've got a cat called Dusty. I try to walk at least 5km everyday and take random pictures as I go
Boxing Day and I haven’t spotted a single cream egg in the shops. This country is really going downhill 🤣

@zxvintage.bsky.social has just posted the advert for "Galaxy Force" on the Spectrum which was a brave conversion. I was offered the chance to convert "The Cliff Hanger: Edward Randy" to the NES and after watching a video of the entire game, I turned it down. I think I did the world a favour

I have no need for this and I’m not buying it but it’s got the carry case. It’s just so cool.

Just had one of those calls about loft insulation and the person on the other end didn’t give up and go away when I explained I live in a flat and I haven’t got a loft.

The weekend just got better my Sony XBOX 5 Pro turned up. OK it's a Mister Multisytem2 from @heber-limited.bsky.social. I can't wait to try it out when I get a minute. The quality of the 3D printing on the case is amazing. Bannana for my lunch or scale 😂 The cat would have preferred a bigger box 😿

Look what I got. I didn’t need it but i really wanted it. We all need more Linux in our lives. The cat also got a new empty box to sit in, so she’s happy too. This was supplied in record time by the @thepihut.bsky.social #raspberrypi

I wish Raspberry PI would release a faster Pi Zero W with more RAM and USB-C power. I wouldn't even mind if they used micro HDMI and got rid of the mini HDMI. I love the form factor but all seems a bit dated now @raspberrypi.com

Just saying the Commodore 128 was the best
Computer I ever owned or was it the best three computers I ever owned. The 128 and an assembler was a brilliant dev machine alongside in many was equal to the Tatung Einstein

One of those odder tech support questions I got asked was "can I disable the touchscreen". Are Microsoft having a laugh? I can disable the trackpad in Windows 11 but not the touch screen. This is the user friendly way they suggest to do it so that's a non starter for most users. Any ideas?

The Everyman cinema very much a work in progress. At my work we’d call that an alpha build.
