You've stumbled into an unknown computer system. Now what? (Source.)
An image for Hacker, from the October 1985 issue of Amstrad Action. Top left: "HACKER. You've stumbled into an unknown computer system. Now what?" Center, a man looks over his commodre 64 late at night and chews his pen, an unfamiliar interface on the screen. Bottom: "'Logon'. One word appears on your screen. What do you do now? You don't know the password. You don't even know what computer system you've hacked into. But you do know that you must find out more. There are no instructions. No rules. No clues. You're completely on your own. You've found your way in. But is there a way out?"

I'm not confusing correlation with causation... but there may be something to investigate here. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Pluto, and Ceres all have 0 deaths. Earth has over 120 billion. Only Earth has JavaScript. Coincidence?

Despite a strong opening act, Commodore made multiple errors through the 80s. Perhaps one of the biggest ones was the Sanyo Amiga CD-X. The CD-X was set to use the established Amiga 500 electronics and receive Japanese arcade ports from Taito, Capcom, Sega, and Konami... in 1989. (Source.)
Up top, the headline: "SANYO FIRST OFF THE BLOCKS WITH A CD-ROM AMIGA 500? A combined CD-ROM/Amiga had already been developed in Japan as early as last August, the Express can reveal." The article describes how the specs resemble an Amiga 500, but the case resembles an Amiga 2000 with a Sanyo badge; while Commodore US knew nothing and Commodore Japan did not respond (not terribly good signs), the quote from the lead engineer Nakamura stated they were looking forwards to porting Amiga home titles to the Japanese market. But don't go looking for one at your local used game shop. Instead, this deal would fall through and they would spend 1990 shovelling out the C64 "Games System" (like a C64 you can't program, but more expensive!) and spend further development money reinventing this working Amiga with the CDTV (1991, 2 years later, 60000 units sold) and the CD32 (1994, 4 years later, 125000 units sold).

Remember the Amstrad Mega PC, the perfect example of “Jack of all trades” but was still INSANELY COOL
A desktop PC hybrid which has a slot for you to stick a mega drive cartridge in and play mega drive games on it

I think #midjourney AI pretty blatantly served me some copyright question prone material. The pic literally has "#dreamstime" watermark on it, suggesting that the AI has been trained on a storefront of paid images, without actually acquiring the content. @bezprawnik, opinion?

According to Mouser Electronics, on April 17th 2023, 14 months after placing the order, I will be able to 🌈 build a brand new MSX2 computer 🦄 from scratch.

I barely remember where I keep the PCB already.

Help! I've always had mixed feelings about how to do "personal branding", and how to maintain own profile(s), whether it's here, or the bird site, or wherever.

Option 1: it's better to split between a "brand" for interests (RetroFunPL) and a personal prof

Now I only have to spend the remaining 80% of the time to get the last 20% of the WORKING.

Do I even set my language correctly on each post? :(
