That's fantastic. I switched back to Firefox last year, haven't looked back. Just do it.

I've long been curious about SGI machines since hearing about them, and VCF Midwest 2026 was the first time I interacted with one.. Not only does this video feel thematically authentic, but it makes me feel like can I understand an SGI machine better. Love the video! www.youtube.com/watch?v=46wx...

This is a photo of Intel engineers working on the CAD design for the Intel 80286 CPU. I was drawn to the image on the right - since we have high resolution die photos, could we actually find what part of the CPU he was working on? Yes, we can #retrocomputing #vintagecomputing #reverseengineering

this is correct

If anything this cursed Mac Classic II is infinitely more interesting than the normal thing

I saw these on the MikeTech channel and I had to instantly buy them. They're sold at (Junkyarddigs.com if you're interested.)

This is really moving

I mean... They weigh close to the same. 🤣

I miss the simplicity and the exploration that came with the early internet. Thanks to Protoweb, you can relive some of that, and it works on retro computers. So for the stream this week we'll be exploring parts of the internet, 90s style! Starting at 8 PM CT youtube.com/live/3-Q4842...

What that's crazy :O

Well this is garbage. They're leading the industry down a dark path.

Anxiously tapping to close a donation popup so I can finish reading the latest news from America

It appears I missed the 30th anniversary of the 3dfx Voodoo Graphics by a few days (Oct 7), but nonetheless, that doesn't mean I won't celebrate it! Here's an excellent article from Club386 where they commemorate it with an interview with co-founder Ross Smith www.club386.com/3dfx-voodoo-...

Margaret Hamilton, who led the 100-person team that wrote the onboard software for the Apollo missions, has died.

After a solid month of work, this is finally complete! I don't often take sponsored content but this was an exciting chance to speak with some legendary talent and showcase elements of its development! Give it a look!

Aw yeah it's back to 1996 on LGR youtu.be/o0wDkCp3Eu4 Checking out the graphics card Sierra On-Line ever sold: the Screamin' 3D! That alone makes it a notable oddity, but it's also a Rendition Verite V1000, which can provide some awesome results!...and a slew of shortcomings and mid-90s quirkiness

First impressions of Star Wars: Galactic Racer are positive! The way they did the tutorial was pretty slick, and the presentation is excellent. The gloves come off quick though! Don't expect to win a lot of races your first time through the tour! Performance-wise.... Yep, it's a UE5 game.

*pauses on a picture of a horse or something for two seconds scrolling through Bsky feed* Bsky: "OH YOU LIKE THAT HUH?? THAT IS NOW YOUR ENTIRE FEED AND YOU CAN'T GET RID OF THEM NOW"

As a preview of what Mattel is going to do with the TMNT license, the He-Man cross-over figures certainly aren't bad. (these are just the two I have)

30 years ago today, the Nintendo 64 was officially released in North America. However, some retailers began selling the console 3 days prior without Nintendo's permission. This combined with high customer demand made Nintendo authorize retailers to sell the console early.

It's been a couple of weeks, but it's time to talk about VCF Midwest, show off some pickups and play some games! Join me tonight at 8 PM CT. youtube.com/live/iofT0s2...

The 9 games that made me: my9games.net/en/edit

I love this. I'm not even a Tandy user, but this faithful recreation of the mail-order VHS tutorial aesthetic by @tjbchris.bsky.social is perfection, and it's just pure joy to watch. youtu.be/K6McY24179Q

Something I think about sometimes.. A 20 year old today went from Gears of War to GTA 6 in their entire lifetime. When I was 20 years old, we went from the literal advent of the VGA standard (87), to Crysis (07). It's just harder for a young person to appreciate the graphical progress we've made.

Hang on while I boot up my diary. No seriously, I've been using my 286 tower as a digital diary, and it's been very relaxing in the evenings. Retro computing with a purpose!

Amazing to see this surface this morning! Rare's Project Dream, the SNES RPG that evolved into Banjo-Kazooie, has had its early proof-of-concept prototype anonymously released after all these years. Thanks to VinciusMedeiro (via Twitter) for the heads up!

A while back I dove headfirst into the world of midi modules for gaming. It obviously escalated quicky and this is the end result. For the stream this week, we're taking a closer look, all run by a 486 for that midi goodness! Starting at 8:00 PM CT youtube.com/live/jLsjBtx...

I'll let the manic depressives squabble over face nitpicks. I think the remastered Ocarina of Time looks MINDBLOWING, and a direct intravenous dose of nostalgia straight to brain. I'm so excited for it, and can't wait to play it!

SG-1000 games now work on the #Colecovision thanks to PicoPak CV. No conversions required. Will add support to run Sord M5 games (along with a couple other similar spec hardware) and finally MSX 1 games with an attached Super Game Module. PicoPak is gonna be 🔥

I picked this on the cheap, a game that seems more tailored for the Dreamcast, but somehow got a port to previous gen consoles. Of course the N64 version resembles the original the most, and commendably so, making it a little more interesting than it otherwise would have been.

This is inhumane and unacceptable. And how were these workers thanked for enduring these conditions? Many were laid off. This is why we're organizing. A better industry is both possible and must come to pass if our artform and dignity are to survive.

Back with a livestream again! With the unfortunate passing of the legend Tim Curry, we're playing a game featuring him and his great performance: Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3. Starting tonight at 8 PM CT. To space! youtube.com/live/oNZo5qH...

This is amazing! SimCopter had a great soundtrack by Jerry Martin but the game’s files were highly compressed. So LucasVB got in touch with Mr. Martin and he was able to find most of the original high quality tracks! Awesome to hear “Hangar” in such clarity after 30 years archive.org/details/SimC...

With a PS/2, late 1980s #retrocomputing #rip

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Well said

Hey friends, I’m in need of a new job. No, YouTube doesn’t pay the bills. 😓 If you know anyone who is looking for an experienced product/app Content Designer or UX Writer, please let me know! 🤞 Feel free to DM me or email me any leads. Thanks!

I'm a simple man. I see a bsky account posting AI slop, I block it.

Oh yeah, new video out today! You might think the only vintage and retro computer events are big shows like VCF Midwest. But did you know there might be cool computer meetups right in your backyard? Join me as I attend a local vintage computer meetup to see why small events can pack a big punch.

BuB's major new project-unveil blows me away. A universal, automatic slotket adapter that supports multiple CPU families, including Tualatin, and VIA C3?! I immediately bought a couple Tually Cellies in anticipation! Can't wait for its release! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJ1u...

I have a lot. Any Bethesda RPGs. Any Bioware RPGs. The GTA series.... I'm very picky.

This is a crazy awesome story. A former XCOM 2 dev bought a vintage computer off of Amazon, which happened to have a build of the cancelled Quake 4: The Awakening expansion. It's now been uploaded to GitHub! www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ca...

So this is not the usual post for me, but my cousin just endured a massive fire and lost his home and belongings. He jumped from a 2nd story window to escape, sadly his brother/my other cousin did not survive Just posting this here in case anyone feels compelled and able to help gofund.me/b10a6b3d7

Sometimes I really enjoy leaving positive, constructive comments on YouTube videos. Creating any longform video is, at minimum, hours of work. Why not make the creator feel good that they tried? It takes hardly any time out of my day, and it might make theirs.

Hi! I’m Mike, the creator of vswitchzero, a YouTube channel dedicated to 90s retro PC hardware and gaming. Join me in this exciting journey of history, exploring forgotten tech and preserving the legacy of vintage computers! youtu.be/UxjBAdSWxgg

SPNG switched it up with this video, delving into an era of hardware outside his comfort zone in an effort to give us a different perspective on 3dfx's Voodoo3, using Windows XP (complete with 1% and 0.1% lows!). Well worth your time if you like late 90s cards! youtu.be/3vRkctBqTUk
