Circuit Rewind

Want to DIY a GPS based Network Time Server in your homelab or small business? Check this out, I show how to pair a @raspberrypiorg.bsky.social Pi4 with the @adafruit.com Ultimate GPS Hat, and provide a pre-made #FreeBSD disk image to make it all super simple! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMqU...

Here is an early prototype of something I've been screwing around with. Since I'm setting up a whole fleet of mounted video cameras that I don't want to have to fiddle with to adjust settings, why not manage them all from a single dashboard!? :D

The major complicated work is now !! DONE !! I can parse the full way through a Crovus drive image into every volume Apple DOS 3.3, Apple ProDOS, and UCSD Pascal volumes can all be listed now Screen shots don't show it, but this is parsing out metadata and sector data for every file in all of em!

I may or may not be buying out the world's entire supply of Corvus Systems network cards ...

We’re setting up for GeekGirlCon this weekend - Hope we see you there!

Part of my literal job is to fly out to physical game studios to rescue and recover historical materials that might be endangered and put them in a permanent archive. @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is a 501(c)3 publicly funded to do that, my DMs are open, and I'm free for the next couple weeks...

Do I still "work" on Cospix? Nope. Is PHP/TLS fully patched today, and do the instances auto-patch daily!? Of course. I'll keep this archive alive. I've migrated it from one hosting setup to another transparently for years, despite "not working on it" ;)

~~ NEW VIDEO ALERT ~~ Soldering together the OtterX 8-Bit computer from scratch, and using the brand new RetroTINK 6X CE while testing the board? Yeah, sure, that sounds like an awesome plan! www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IoS...

I think I'm my fourth?ish? iteration of the directory tree walking code for the Corvus "emulator" !!BUT!! this is the version I'm going with! Screen shot is just the file names, but the code under it? FINALLY something clean, manageable, and expandable.

One of the coolest things I picked up at @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social I've had the "I Made This" Xbox for a while now, and finally found its matching controller for sale! :D

This is such a crap situation, and has been a problem ever since Content-ID was introduced. There is no real repercussions for these automated systems that file false DMCA flags on YouTube.

Bought a copy of UNIRACERS for the SNES at @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social Open it up, first thing I noticed is the sticker "Huh, that's not normal, someone has been in here post-factory" Turn the board over, after-market battery! One less job for me to do lmfao

womp womp okay, something is still wrong w/ the decryption function, but its pretty damn close! well, at least the "name" decryption password decryption is totally broken LMFAO

It don't look like much, but the volume label decryption logic is now integrated into the main Corvus disk image utility! This means that the DRIVE.VOLUME file is now fully being processed, and all volume auto-discovery works. TONS of "magic number" hacks are now removed from the code :D

OH HELLZ YEAH I'm in for a great time tonight!! :D

A new cheat code was discovered to unlock F-Zero GX’s hidden gold vehicles. buff.ly/C8PRLwE

Just launched - Amiga Super Hexagon. amigasuperhexagon.com Play on your own '80s home computer, or online in your browser. A perfectly impractical way to play the classic game on 40 year old hardware. Free download. @terrycavanaghgames.com @chipzel.bsky.social

#PRGE Day-Two haul! Yup, Lots of cheap CD-i games :D Also, LOOK AT THAT SIMCITY BOX ART Oh, and there is something special about Tetris+DrMario too ;)

Day-One haul from @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social today Got some really neat items to help fill in certain areas of my collection! Love to see quality Big Box PC at a reasonable price here.

So no joke, this game just "appeared" in my steam library years ago. No idea when/how My brother and I were bored at pdxlan, looked at my library and was like "wtf is this" and played it, knowing nothing about it Absolutely AMAZING experience, one of my FREAGGIN all time fav games, easily!

Sssssooooooooooooooooonnnnn!!! (tm)

Having every single data structure and possible value laid out in documentation feels like absolutely -CHEATING- for re-implementing all the Corvus Constellation storage stuff. Zero guessing. Zero "How does it figure out X value?" ITS ALL RIGHT HERE

8x more Apple II NICs (Apple Tunics !?!?) just arrived in the mail. Am I starting to hoard the entire world's supply!?!? We shall see ;) In the mean time, AMAZING progress this past few days on reverse engineering the NAS!

(1/3) Retrotink 6X & 4K profiles update 2026-10-06. A big milestone thanks to Mike's work!🔥 👉Retrotink 4K Pro & CE - 4K/1080 & 1440p profiles: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... 👉Retrotink 6x 1080p & 1440p profiles: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... What makes this update a big milestone? (2/3)👇

I could create an entire hour long video on what it took for me to actually get these new cameras in my hand for my studio... A combination of shitty FedEx and Canon USA corporate policies tried to ensure I'd never actually get these!? Ya, never ordering online again LMFAO

Here is Top Gear 2, running the way it always should have. Same race, original vs SA-1, taking turns. Watch what happens every time it swaps. The SA-1 chip is frying here!! But it holds 60 FPS, tunnels and mountains included.

Anyone want the FedEx "AI Chatbot" instructions...? UUhhhhhh, asking for a friend? ;)

Hey @bsky.app Fuck you and your fucking broken age verification system This is the middle of Downtown Seattle Do you REALLY think I magically teleported 3000 miles in just a few minutes !?!?!? DO BETTER
