The real dagger in this statement is basically that they didn't stop because of Elon's nonsense but just that ads on exTwitter just don't perform. www.cnn.com/2023/12/01/b...
Walmart is the latest advertiser to pull ads from X, following Elon Musk comments | CNN Business
Walmart has stopped advertising on social media platform X, the latest company to do so.

Have a great Sunday and the rest of your weekend folks, I'm sorting through PCI and ISA cards, moving them into storage. The problem I always have is, after deciding what to store away, the next week I end up wanting them! 😀

Feeling REAL lucky. Found this last week! An almost minty copy of Doom 2 for $70 Canadian dollaroos!
Definitely a "Holy Grail" for me.
What're your Holy Grail games?

There's an SC-55, SC-8850, and SC-D70 all in the same rack. There's so much overlap there, why would anyone?
- SC-55 for MS-DOS gaming
- SC-8850 for music creation
- SC-D70 as a USB audio/midi interface for the retro PC, but also has optical audio input so I can losslessly record the PS2

Well it powers on, so that's a good thing.
A great future project, a few things I'll need to do:
- Very Deep Clean
- RTC battery replacement
- Either find a floppy drive or mod a cable to use a normal one. Depending on if I can get an original drive, 3D print a bezel
- XT-IDE

I have been out of it for so long that I fully forgot to post work, and I’ve seemed to have since garnered a few followers who probably have no idea what I do for a living. Hello! I’m Trung. I make comics. Here’s an image I made for my website featuring characters from my first book, The Magic Fish.

Are you interested in MS-DOS gaming? Want to play old games on modern computers? Not sure which emulator to use?

I'm putting together a small, but growing, collection of abandonware games ready to play on the latest Windows OSs.

You can get them here:

Back in 92/93 I was captivated by the magazine adverts for this game - but I never played it as I could never usually work out 'whodunnit' in Sherlock Holmes stories, and so thought it would be too difficult for me.
This October in the Adventure Game Club we are playing The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes, developed by Mythos Softwater and published by Electronic Arts in 1992.

If you'd like to play and discuss this game with us, come join our Discord!

My claim to fame is essentially production of these little dudes, the weeCee. Which is an MS-DOS running mini retro gaming machine. Really unique piece of kit, but passionately put together. Designed by Rasteri, and featured on LGR for an episode. Uses a 25-800 MHz SOM with a Vortex86DX cpu.
