Reddit getting heavy handed with bans. I got a 1 week sub ban for suggesting the servicemen not getting a vaccine after kegsbreath removed the requirement was natural selection. Then I got a 3 day site ban for suggesting the best way for a Tesla owner to fix that problem was to burn their swasticar.
OMG! I'm getting a C64 Ultimate for my birthday! Should never have been named as Basic Beige... Should be Classic Beige. None of the silly RGB stuff Thank you @ikkleart.com ❤️
If you have an Ayn Thor and use ES-DE or Jarngreipr you might find this useful. I made some custom system images for your bottom display, here are a couple for visibility github.com/a8bit/Thor-C...
Struggling to get @stinkyox.bsky.social's Polybius running on my AYN Thor in GameHub. It's a pretty amazing bit of software and most of the indie Steam games I've tried so far run out of the box. Still lots of parameters to tweak so it's not game over yet. Heres a pic of BallisticNG as eye candy.
Ever wanted to jailbreak your Kindle to read other ebook formats but couldn't because your Kindle was running the latest firmware? Now is the time. A new jailbreak is out and it works perfectly on current Kindles. Go to kindlemodding.org and follow the very simple step by step before they patch it!

My posts have been far too angry and political here lately, I'm sorry. I've created a new account politicalrobot.bsky.social so I can shout at the fascists without infecting my feed. I just want retro here and I'm not helping by bringing the angry.

Looking at trying to get the 'Touch' apps from opentouchgaming.com set up and running on my Retroid Pocket 5 today. That's Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem and Wolfenstein engines ported to Android.
If you use a frontend to launch emulators and you use MAME, you may not have realized that there are some games playable in MAME that don't need any roms to run. These games are early TTL games that don't have any chips in them. There are four of them working, Pong, Pong Doubles, Rebound & Breakout.
The simple answer is to create an empty zip file in your mame roms directory for each of the games, pong.zip, pongd.zip, breakout.zip and rebound.zip. Now you can select the fake zip file from the frontend and MAME will fire up the game.
