Can #chat-gpt generate a rouge level compilable in #z88dk for the #ZX81? First tests are kinda "yes".

That's better than my offer then:

Moons ago, I made a tiny keyboard for Lorenzo Herrera’s Commodore Pet Mini – commodorepetmini.com – adapted into the Educator 64 Mini: www.zx81keyboardadventure.com/search/label...

Now, thanks to Davidvro, printable keycaps finish the look:

Finally went to see HMAS Sydney, or its mast at least. @whathosnorkers.bsky.social

Up to level 5. We might get one more finished before Sydney.

Playing Minoss Knossoss for the #ZX81 on the train.

Another experiment: #ZX81 loading a screen test file from an arduino mini via a parallel ZXIO card.

Tonight, stuffing around with the IO board on the #ZX81 / #Minstrel3 and an Arduino Pro Micro pushing in serial data.

Think I've finally found the perfect LCD monitor for the #ZX81 / #Minstrel3. It's got that mini desktop feeling.

I'm feeling this Ambernic rg40xx h is a near perfect handheld device for the #ZXSpectum (emulation)

"Reading a Dallas RTC in BASIC on the #ZX81 / #ZXMinstrel3!" The Video. It’s a tad slow, with a second and a bit between screen updates, but not really attempted optimising it yet.

Experimenting with everybody's favorite Dallas RTC DS12887, a #ZX81 / ZX Minstrel 3, and my ZXIO / IO card built around the 8255A

Finally got the #ZX81 / #tynemouthsw #ZX-Minstrel-3 in a case! Ages ago, Robee Shepherd sent me a case STL for ZX-Keys keyboard, which naturally inspired me to make one for the Minstrel. Nearly two years later, it's finally mostly finished!
