@8BitShowAndTell @MindFlareRetro Whoa, I live in Weston now. Loved Edison Twins. Where exactly was (is) the house?

@RBadgeman Where are the keycaps from?? (I note the C= key is the "correct" logo)

@salt11949 @8BitShowAndTell I have one of these that I got second-hand. If you'd like to use it on your PC as a USB keyboard though an Arduino Micro, here's some code!

@masterhit @8BitShowAndTell @mrdoornbos Lots of stuff in all areas of life, though hobby time has been limited lately.

Commodore-wise, been working on a networked dungeon crawler.

@8BitShowAndTell As the author of said file, I find this hilarious. Guaranteed malware-free...or is it??

@jeriellsworth I love Super Potato! I picked up a Commodore MAX there when I visited about 15 years ago. Glad to see it's still thriving!

@8BitShowAndTell I also played around with it years ago and couldn't get it to work. I don't think the USB drives give sufficient low-level access to read 1581 disks.

@gregnacu Good point, considering there was such a game for the PET - Flash Attack

The 64 had Modem Wars and Operation Terminal, don't know if they would work over a null modem cable though!

@MrGoodBits @8BitShowAndTell I'm sure you know the Nabu reconstruction project right here at York U?

@gregnacu Love mine! Though I found I had to lower the speed settings in the ini file though before it felt "right", like a 1351.

@kvance This is amazing. I've been looking to do something like this and you beat me to it! My idea for an extension: Serial/USB interface to a PC for modifying the emulated ROM contents in real-time. (Possibly running on the 2nd core)

@gregnacu This opens up all kinds of questions about software engineering and safety, we deal with this in aerospace a lot. No dead code allowed.
