The Dig (1995), a point-and-click adventure game by LucasArts. Love the atmospheric intro. Completely cinematic and blew me away when I first played it. #DOSGaming #RETROGAMING

I've spent the day working on this amazing Amiga 1200 I picked up last year. I no longer post here, but all the details are here: https://t.co/xlSXoyP6X5

I picked up a bit of a personal grail item this weekend. An Amiga A1200 that is absolutely superb condition. Super happy with the price too. Really looking forward to exploring this machine.

@FixTechStuff1 Shopify or Wix are probably the easiest. Not expensive, but not free. Wordpress is even cheaper. All would work for you.

Trump's apparent victory has 5 big implications for the UK: 🧵

1️⃣ It can happen here. He will back Farage, the Musk propaganda machine will crank up against Labour; the Tories will remould themselves into Trump-lite Islamophobes ...

Do you know how we make AdLib/Soundblaster🎵?

Main component of these famous 90's soundcards was the OPL soundchip, which performs FM synthesis.

Here's my attempt to recreate the famous "Largo theme" we could ear in Monkey Island 2 😊

Crazy stuff

[oerg866 / clarry @oerg866]

In an attempt to further speed up Windows 9x QuickInstall, I have patched SYSDM.CPL to remove the hard-coded 8 second delay(!!!) when new hardware is found and reduced it to 300 milliseconds.

@DPJHodges I'll tell you for free I don't trust anyone who would seriously ask me that question.

@BlockchainCJ @jacobbmc2 I wouldn’t steal a car, but I’d download one if I could.

@Ben022574721121 @DPJHodges Dan is pretty level headed
but he does like taking the contrarian position.

@FixTechStuff1 @8BitRelics @CommodoreLad Might not be feasible as the C64 PSU outputs AC, along with DC. You’d need an inverter, and they’re not particularly small.

My first download was Aerosmith’s Crazy. It was 1996, don’t judge me.

What was your first album?

@redhistorian @SAshworthHayes To be fair, the “are absolutely seething” tweets are a common trope on here and are not meant to be taken literally. I absolutely agree with your take on the popularisation of history.

@dshirlaw @The_FOH Good luck!

@implausibleblog Not sure what you actually want them to do about it, Farrukh. They can't rejoin the SM and magically make the problems disappear. That is a conversation for another day.

@implausibleblog I'd like to see the numbers adjusted for inflation.

@WilliamShatner Ah, but did you know that Kirk had a VIC-20, but Spock favoured the more advanced #Commodore64 #C64? 😊👍
It’s logical if you think about it 😉

I find the performative outrage over this wallpaper app perplexing. Just don’t use it? Nobody’s forcing you.

[I am Jakoby @I_Am_Jakoby]

Marques Brownlee wants us to pay $50 a year for dumb wallpapers so he can harvest and sell our data. All while using a garbage unsecure api? yea ok

Powershell function to download them all for free 😈

code is in the ALT text
some are corrupted but who cares, no one is using them

@acceler8future @Peston @elonmusk Ah a comedian. Do you do children's parties?
