    USB4VC adds support to the Lisa! (use USB and bluetooth devices through a rpi)

    (crosspost, but I never ever get to post threads about the Lisa, so I did when I could, right now!) New video about the USBV4C which (since mid-April) added support to early macs (128, 512, Plus) keeps support for ADB Macs and even adds the Lisa. Lets you use modern usb and bt devices for...

    Color Classic motherboard woes

    Yahoo Auctions Japan prices are surprisingly good and makes me think about 1999-2005 era ebay prices but the shipping just slays us if we don't have the same privilege as someone living in Japan and not require international shipping. My "sealth" Color Classic II (advertised as CC1, but actually...

    New video about the USBV4C which (since mid-April) added support to early macs (128, 512, Plus) keeps support for ADB Macs and even adds the Lisa. Lets you use modern usb and bt devices for these vintage computers. dekuNukem assures me I'm the first to buy and get this card in the world...

    ThinkC New INIT for Systems 6/7: Today’s the Day

    Thing is, I understand the point of view of a classic programmer that learned the trade without version control. I understand how non-intuitive it is to go beyond self managed* backups all over the place. I understand the initial reaction to branches when you're just doing a project by yourself...

    ThinkC New INIT for Systems 6/7: Today’s the Day

    I can give you a crash course into using github if you want. I got my own crash course back in 2017 and despite being surrounded by well-meaning pro coders, I couldn't burn their free time asking endless questions like I needed so I figured out a lot on my own. You won't need to learn everything...

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    Sometimes, games feel they have some floaty reaction time inside emulators, especially in Basilisk. I think I know what you mean. However, you don't need to worry about "Airborne!" running in mini-vMac. For one, like always, a bootable DSK file will be provided and two, there's no feeling of...

    Vectrex

    I didn't make the distinction because I take the point of view of a physicist and all I need to lump them together is to see a step where electrons are made available with heat, then they're accelerated in vacuum inside a tube and their path is tweaked with electric and magnetic fields (fields...

    Foenix 256 Jr and K

    The new fork of the emulator: https://github.com/clandrew/fnxide taken up a few days ago by user HaydenKale, her plans are: However, it did not come with an executable, so I had to compile it to test it out. Also, a good idea if I want to follow an active project that's being improved upon...

    Foenix 256 Jr and K

    The old but proven emulator There's the old abandoned-but-still-best emulator targeting the discontinued C256 Foenix FMX (which is put on hold as new platforms rise). It still runs code that's easily portable to the upcoming 6502 based machines that just came out or will come out (F256Jr and...

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    Challenge 04 is going to be 100% Winter Games by Epyx. Bobsleigh best time Hot dog best score Long jump best distance They are all push-your-luck-on-your-road-to-glory so the main difficulty is settling on a score and taming your competitive brain!

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    While that's a classic, it kinda shatters the "short quick game" aspect I was going for. People can play for ages in Tetris. If there's no other suggestion, we'll go for it.

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    Challenge 02 had low turnout but sure, I can start another one. I was thinking of selecting: Airborne! ?????????? Shufflepuck Café against Biff (highest differential. Points scored by you minus points scored by Biff, so that even if you lose, you may submit a score, albeit negative one, since...

    Arkanoid 1.10? 🧱🕹️🤩

    Just played it today to test out playing it with a wireless ps4 gamepad. Nope, this one demands mouse control for those quick flicks of movement.

    Vectrex

    This is not officially Vectrex, but Vectrex adjacent. I watched this the other day and it may make any tinkerer a Vectrex developper with a simple pico, given they find a CRT based oscilloscope with XY mode.

    Have you been following the Commander X-16 saga by David Murray? Or the Commodore-65? These are 2 modern-day reimagined 8-bit computers with modern bells and whistles, with the goal of being more performing than their historical inspirations, while still attempting to capture the age of personal...
