Ultimately the problem with designing my own #retrocompuing / #permacomputing system always boils down to the fact that I don't actually have a regular need for computing for anything other than a communications tool. I have no clear objectives or goals to design towards; no problem to solve.

Das größte Computermuseum der Welt steht in Paderborn. Es ist die ehemalige Firmenzentrale von #Nixdorf – einem frühen Hersteller von Bürocomputern. (Podcast)
Do you think a version of the #C64 with the internal expansion slots of the #apple2 would have been successful?
I've always wondered why such a system never happened back in the day. There are parts of the memory that could have been remapped without breaking much -- the cassette buffer comes to mind. I'm quite happy the #commanderx16 has such slots. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one!

The German for “useless tat that just collects dust” is “Staubfänger” (literally “dust catcher”).
Maybe my favorite Staubfänger is this. #retrocompuing

More on Lisa! At VCF East 2021, Jason Perkins gave an in-depth demo of the Apple Lisa, and for the 40th Anniversary he's put together a new recording showing how it was designed to be used with great video and audio quality:

I recently got a #BlueSCSI kit. Are there any good _non-video_ instructions on how to assemble one? Is it a similar process for all BlueSCSI devices? #retrocompuing
I'm in need of a 65C02 emulator core (written in C or C++) and a macro assembler. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Western Design Centre 65C02 variant preferred.

So, now that I own these beauties... what do I do with them? #crtftw #retrocompuing #TTLvsRGB

its here!
had to remove the screw thingies to plug in to the ST... which are all that holds the outer shield on 🙃
oh well, might have to glue it on?
connected to Level 29, as is tradition
the wifi modem won't connect to the house wireless for some reason, so i connected it to my phone
that's right, this 520ST has 5G wireless connectivity!

@ahto i use Thortsten Otto's gcc toolchain on a raspi 4 as i find amusement in using modern compilers to target old systems as if they were embedded systems 🙃

i can rapidly test software using hatari's GEMDOS drive emulation
to write disks to run on real hardware i've got a bondi blue iMac era TEAC FD-05PU USB floppy drive 😁

Looks like this #Nabu computer becomes a topic? Seen some articles about it these last days (never heard of it before) #retrocompuing
Me falta el tercer ejemplar y creo que he perdido la oportunidad de pedirlo para Reyes.
Quizás cuando vuelva a organizar un poco mejor mi tiempo y mi vida me sirvan para inspirarme en mi propia creación.
