Ugh, only a month away from VCF now and I still haven't finalized travel plans or finished building any of my retro computers to show off 😫

Guh, a bunch of my retro PC games are all first editions that aren't built for Windows 9x, especially Myst, POD and Quake. Need to find the rerelease CDs

I sure do love getting video playback errors...on YouTube MUSIC. YouTube get your goddamn shit together, none of your websites work because of your insistence on vibe coding and AI bullshit

Scott the Woz hyperventilating in the distance

I need to find an era appropriate graphics card to upgrade this machine, I noticed both American McGee's Alice and NOLF chugged pretty badly when trying all my windows 98 games

Convenient that we're having an Internet outage on the same night I've been installing a bunch of (offline) games on my retro PC

Must floof that cat

Suddenly feeling nostalgic for when the Apple store used to have a kids game area

You have my attention

I'm still completely stumped about this Amiga keyboard. I don't know why it stops working as soon as I assemble it. Am I missing pieces? Is the membrane bad?

Anyone else get this strange message on PayPal? Something about a "pre-fund confirmation" for nearly $1000? I can't report it for suspicious activity but I don't know what to do to avoid getting hit with a scam.

Lynx food!

Still struggling with my raspberry pi Amiga, trying to get greaseweazle to talk to the Amiga floppy drive. I have a sneaking suspicion it's because I don't have a 12v power rail.

I thought April showers were supposed to be spread out through the whole month, not all at once

You're speaking my language, meow

Retro tech club meeting today! Still trying to get my C64 floppy drives working 😩

Instagram trying to single me out

Man what I'd give for MacEffects to make another batch of their blue SE cases, since they came and went before I started collecting 😭

The trial and error of finding the correct replacement spring size would be so much more bearable if I wasn't waiting two weeks for them to ship from China every time...

Since we're expecting a massive blizzard all weekend, seems like a good time to hunker down and play Mac games for #marchintosh

I should go there and ask for wifi help, their heads would explode

Same energy

I'm about to get into some shenanigans with my C64

Still a long ways to go before this mess of wires and dongles will become a fully functional computer...

Got the right part on the second try. Do I put the mouse skates on now, or should I wait until I can get the 3d print shell polished up more? 🤔

Commodore 64 is fixed and running once more 😄 Let this be a lesson not to pull out chips with my bare hands whoops

Valentine's date night at the local cat cafe 🐱

I ordered computer mouse parts from AliExpress, received COVID masks instead. 🤨

I swear I've had multiple dreams about visiting a movie theater like this. Determined to find one like this irl one day. Popcorn Palace in vrchat
