Well, it's been a little while, but here's a tribute to reaching 700 followers. It's a quiet period while I get my space sorted out, but there's lots of vintage computing masochism still to come! New followers: welcome. Those who have stuck with me: thank you. 🙂 #PrideMonth

Been a while since I've done a thread, but an opportunity has arisen to do one on this keyboard. @PhilBennett3D asked if someone could dump the ROM from a Casio keyboard with the 'Nightbirds' demo. This is one of those!

Seeing as how the Emmy awards happened last night, let’s talk about the February 1998 issue of PC Zone magazine. Thread 👇

Okay, time to officially quit this hellscape. Been using Bluesky for about a year and the balance seems to have shifted in recent weeks thankfully. bsky.app/profile/brassi…

9/ Nice. Time to play some Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003, GTA Vice City and Need For Speed Underground 2.

8/ It's done. The case came with an intake fan, but I don't have any spare fans for exhaust with the right cables. One thing I remember pissing me off about this board is that there's only one case fan header and it's right at the bottom. It's a Northwood, it should be fine.

1/ Join me while I build my early (2003) XP gaming PC. I will start with a wildly inappropriate case because it's the only spare one I have except for an aluminium one with a window and that clearly has to be used for the late XP SLI system. My peripherals are black though.

I moved from Oklahoma to TX in 99 for my first teaching job. I had a tiny little efficiency/studio apartment and no TV. I got myself a TV tuner card, the cable guy almost refused to install my cable when he saw what I was hooking it up to. He finally said "fine, I'll hook your cable, but I'm not testing it on that, it's up to you to get it working."

Is there anything more mid-2000s than watching digital TV on Windows XP with a questionable frame rate?
