Finally a KIM Uno with a newer (and cheaper) Arduino Nano USB-C. A bit messy under the hood, but working like a charm.

Aus für Glyphosat-Studie: Monsantos Geister spuken nicht mehr
25 Jahre lang wird eine Studie zitiert, die Glyphosat für risikolos erklärte. Erst jetzt wird sie zurückgezogen, weil Monsanto verdeckt mitgeschrieben hatte.

La Universidad de Main debería darle un mejor crédito a #chuckpeddle, ya que gracias a él, existe el procesador MOS 6502, el ordenador KIM-1 y la Commodore PET que dieron inicio a la era del PC.

Today is #ChuckPeddleDay – a celebration of the brilliant mind behind the 6502!
So dig out your 6502 computers, power them up, dust them off, or just show them with pride.
Whether it’s a Commodore, Apple, Atari, BBC Micro or any homebrew project – today we honor the chip that started it all. 🚀🖥️✨

The KIM-1 got its name from Keyboard Input Monitor. It was designed as a 6502 development system but became a cult computer in its own right. It was first released in 1976 for about $245.

Learning 6502 programming is still a valid way to hone your low-level coding skills. The 6502 is perhaps one of the earliest RISC CPUs, so you could trace the path from it to the Arm CPUs in just about everything today.
