There. Now you have something to connect the serial port on your #RC2014 type thing, so it can talk to the terminal baked into this board. VT-100 with colour, basically.

Just released BeebEm 4.21. This fixes a bug with the tape sound emulation introduced in 4.20, another bug in the installer, and makes some improvements to the VIA emulation.

Happy Friday everyone! Fancy a brand new #ZXSpectrum game to get your teeth into this weekend?
Well let me help you out: welcome to Castle Rooj!
Roojliek is a classic ASCII rogue-like for the 48K ZX Spectrum, can you survive long enough to escape?

Great achievement! 👍
Poor thing's practically choking to death, so we're not gonna score it on musical ability, but that is basically, near as damnit, nobody's actually counting, 14 channels of music from a zeddy. Job done.

Started the first 8 bars of a new cover track I featuring my #SC126 #Z180 8 bit computer running my own sequencer application and song data format. The #MIDI interface and some of the synths I have in my setup now but no mixer or sound system yet.

I wear my old jeans at home but the front of the legs are ripped to shreds. I have another pair exactly the same. The back half of the legs is still good so I could make one good pair out of two pairs by sewing the two back halfs of the other pair to the fronts to make a new pair of legs.
