These are some things that are in my house. #DOSGaming

@nickchapsas Building on C# scripts, the compiler is happy with the first line being a shebang. You can add one and make your scripts executable.

I have the absolute path to the 11p3 dotnet binary, but if it was on your path "#!/usr/local/env dotnet run" would work fine.

@SilverStone_Tek A single external 3.5" bay would make this 110% perfect!

Floppy drive, ZIP drive, card reader, the utility would be incredible.

Pretty please???

Hey @superloopau, can an individual take up a Totalbiz plan? The better upload would be perfect for WFH.

@Dexerto It's been fun @discord, we'll briefly mourn your inevitable enshittification then move somewhere else.

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

@coburn64 It's genuine, somebody spent all day Wednesday trying to get in.

Idiots. 🤣

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

Go fuck yourself :)

@someone_uses @Der_Kernel_ Nerevar isn't the player character name.

@operagxsupport I want to turn off your password manager to use my own, and the menu item exists, but the toggle itself seems to be missing...?

Thus I can't turn it off.

Eventually I'll have said "never" for every site and the result will be the same, but c'mon!

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

@ActionRetro1 That's what Fail2Ban is good for tho, it does the metaphorical fly-swatting for you, based on rules like rate and request/result parameters.

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

@DJSnM The danger of "Nah, it'll be fine."

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

That's a long time!!

And like Radeons will always be ATi, this site will always be Twitter in my mind.

CRT Terminator, an interesting project of capturing vintage PC videocard digital output using a feature connector, and converting it into clean HD image a modern monitor can display

@sincespacies Daresay most of us had it on the good ol PS1. IMO the series peaked here, enough variety to keep you coming back, but not so much it's overwhelming. Top tier entry.

@eevblog Had that happen in my Model 3 once. Same fix, yank-to-release thing in the boot. Hasn't happened since. If it happens again I'm thinking maybe try to get a little lithium grease on the lug in the port. So far so good tho, nearly 12 months on.

@dosnostalgic Ironically this PC will be actually not-obsolete for longer than any of those "Never Obsolete" systems were back in the day. 😂

Happy 30th, old friend. 🥂

... The side panels need to be taller, I think.

The hole the VGA port pokes through is extremely tight, I've filed it out in order for a VGA cable to mate reliably.

Everything else lines up really nicely though.

[RetroSwim @RetroSwimAU]

Some feedback on the 3D printed case @TakiUdon_ :

- The 10mm (or 11?) spacers between the IO/fan board and the lid really need to be 12mm, so the lid doesn't bend.

- With the default 5mm spacers on the bottom, there is a gap between the sides and bottom...

Arrived today in Australia 😁 Thank you @TakiUdon_ !!
