The internet monopolist in our area just raised the price from US$90 to US$100. An 11% price increase without any notice because "fuck you, we can, customer". This is for a meager 500 down/20 up connection; internet only, nothing else. One hundred bloody bucks. But yeah, "I'd rather have a private plan", capitalism, free markets, murrica, yada-yada... tough luck when there's no competition. #Spectrum #Internet #ISP #Inflation

Bow Commanderby Shrek / MB Maniax, 2026 https://shrek128.itch.io/bow-commander BC looks genuinely interesting, it's a file manager and viewer inspired by Midnight Commander / Norton Commander for the ZX Spectrum 128k + EsxDos #ZXSpectrum #Speccy #Spectrum #retrocomputing

💾 Ejercitando la paciencia con Manic Miner en verano https://56k.es/fanta/ejercitando-la-paciencia-con-manic-miner-en-verano/ Boby grabó en lo que sobraba de la Cara A con su cassette doble pletina el juego «Manic Miner». Lo grabó también en la cara B por aquello de tener otra copia de seguridad. Boby era buena gente pero realmente «no tenía muchas luces», no era «el lápiz más afilado del estuche» .... #xz #spectrum #zxspectrum #manicminer #zx80

If you can afford it, after the untimely demise of the World of Spectrum database, it would be a good time to help leeching and seeding zxart as a preservation safe. Spectrum Computing and the Internet Archive are amazing resources, but it's public knowledge how archives are enduring persistent attacks. Nothing can beat redundancy of a full organised archive distributed globally. https://zxart.ee/userfiles/file/zxart_offline.torrent #zxspectrum #spectrum #speccy #torrent #retrocomputing #retrogaming #bittorrent

I was finally able to correct my emulator, ZenZX, to make it work with ZX Spectrum +3 floppy discs which weren't so floppy. With many thanks to @FromTheFourthPlanet@mas.to for her wonderful emulator, SpecIde, I learned massively from her generous gift and her deep knowledge of the machinery involved. https://github.com/MartianGirl/SpecIde

Now I'm able to load The Artist II by Ocean Software from a DSK image. I wasn't able to draw f** s** using its keyboard layout. Here's a dodgy invader for you.
