@TheGoodStatsMan @BespokeEB @SocEnvJustice @EastSussexCC Most of the path is behind hedgerows, so obscured from the road. There has been a steady flow of mostly cyclists when I’ve used it, but also lots of kids on skateboards and scooters, especially nearer Polegate once it’s away from the roadside. Fewer pedestrians though.

A very soft interview by Peter Walker. No questions about floating bus stops or how to balance the interests of bus users & cyclists or why investment in cycling has not resulted in the expected increase in cyclists. But he got the headline he wanted. theguardian.com/news/2024/dec/…

@1066shrimprail Are those new stops? I’ve never noticed them when using the 99.

⁦@EastSussexCC⁩ ⁦@StagecoachSE⁩ Nice to see some new bus stops popping up all around the area, but still absolutely nothing at the stops on the A259 Marsh Road adjacent to the Lamb Inn. I’ve seen drivers whizz past waiting passengers!

@BespokeEB @EastSussexCC @activetraveleng With a few tweaks to permit cycles this would be a good scheme.

@BespokeEB @EastSussexCC I’m really surprised to see @activetraveleng funding a scheme that discourages active travel, removes the existing safe cycle and pedestrian zone, and moves bicycles onto the dangerous ring road where there have been numerous collisions.

18th Nov @EastSussexCC Transport Committee will proceed with its next step in discouraging cycling in the town centre. "approve the revised scope for Eastbourne Town Centre Movement and Access Package Phase 2a and moving forward to construction in 2025/26"

@QuazarSamCoupe Will you have any for sale in Cambridge this weekend when you are exhibiting?

Can't beat some YM/AY tunes with Ed Brindley's soundcard on RC2014 and compatibles, as playing here on Robert's setup. I produced an add-on - "ZXTT" (ZX True Tone) - to replace a chip on the YM/AY soundcard with a clock generator to feed in the exact 1.7734MHz clock used by the 128K ZX Spectrums. Using the ZXTT will mean any speccy tunes played will be pitch perfect compared to the ZX Spectrum. Using a lower clock speed will pitch the tones down, likewise a higher clock will pitch the tones up. It'll also affect how envelope effects sound.

Robert Price builds an RC2014 music player, controlled with a custom rotary encoder input module. hackster.io/news/robert-pr…

The @retrochallenge has drawn to an end. I look back at what I learnt and achieved with my Rotary Encoder for the #RC2014 project. robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

I've put together my work on the Rotary Encoder for the #RC2014 @retrochallenge and built a music player. Tracks can be selected using the rotary encoder, shown on the LCD, and played on the YM2149. robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

The two new versions of the Rotary Encoder Module for the #RC2014 that I have designed for this year's @retrochallenge have arrived. I've soldered them up and tested them, and they work perfectly. robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

A quick update on my #RC2014 #RetroChallenge . I wanted to cover my development environment. This is how I build Z80 assembly language programs on my Mac, how I transfer them, and how I run them on my RC2014. robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

Well - the entire crew of season two of #AdamRichmanEatsBritain has just been robbed. We were driving from Birmingham to London, stopped at a rest, stop in Barnet for exactly 4 1/2 minutes to use the restroom, and came back to our van completely cleaned out. All of the filming equipment is gone. Both of my suitcases with all of my possessions are gone. Backpack with my laptop and all of my medications are gone . And to make matters worse, because I have trackers on some of my possessions, and because of my laptop, I can see where these things are. But we have to wait here for the police. The rest stop won’t release the security footage until the police arrive. It’s been almost an hour. I’m going to share a few of the locations where I can see my possessions. Reward for anything found.

I created a new ROM module for my #RC2014 Classic 2 computer. This is taller than the standard module, has a ZIF socket, and switches for swapping the memory mapping around. I'm hoping this will make it easier to program on my RC2014. #RetroChallenge robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

The new PCB revision of my Rotary Encoder Module for the #RC2014 arrived yesterday, so I have soldered one up and tested it. I made a mistake with the ground plane. Still, it's a good learning experience for this year's #RetroChallenge robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

Another update to this year's @RetroChallenge I have merged my rotary encoder and LCD Z80 code, and I can now scroll text on the #RC2014 robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

In my latest update for this year's @RetroChallenge, I look at how to display text on an LCD screen attached to an #RC2014 computer.

The ordering of the text was an issue as the LCD doesn't show lines sequentially, but I came up with a solution.

robertprice.co.uk/robblog/rc2024…

Lots of progress tonight on my @RetroChallenge. I still need to write it up, but I can now use my Rotary Encoder module to scroll through the poem Puff The Fractal Dragon on my #RC2014.

@rekoobb It’s got to be Jet Set Willy
