mastodon 4.6.9I repair/hack/make/destroy stuff on YouTube/PeerTube. RetroComputing, VintageAudio, Tinkering. Co-hosting the Elektroschrott podcast. As unprofessional as it gets. Anti-fascist. Chaotic good. C64 rules.
Handheld C64 just dropped!
If the new #Commodore advertising is rage bait, they are doing a pretty good job.
Taking a little break after ~6 hours of refurbishing/repairing datasettes. So far, 3 out of 3 1531s (the grey ones) work fine again and I even managed to load Cobra on the one that had a "Cobra" Dymo label on it… 😅 #InTheLabDoingStuff
You can also just run a slightly modified version of DolphinDOS on the #C64Ultimate, as it turns out. It is WAY faster than any JiffyDOS derivatives (but doesn’t have a rainbow startup screen). Here’s the variant I’m currently using: https://github.com/donnchawp/DolphinDOS2
It’s Bandcamp Friday! Reminder that my old band‘s recordings are available for free there (or you can donate a few coins if you like). It’s kind of 80s-influenced indie pop with modern twists. I played the bass, wrote most lyrics and some music. We split up in late 2008. https://theseathesea.bandcamp.com
