Hi there. Opening this account as a precaution against the Muskocolypse.

Hi, I'm Benj. I've been collecting computers and video games to preserve tech history since 1993

I started vintagecomputing.com in 2005 and began freelancing shorty thereafter for sites like PCWorld, Fast Company, The Atlantic

I introduced a lot of early video game and microcomputer history to the web

I also make music and created a bunch of joysticks. I run a BBS and a MUSH

Right now, I'm Ars Technica's AI and ML reporter, but history's still in my blood #introduction

Is #Twitter doomed?

Here's a Victorian alarm clock which served as a “memento mori,” reminder of death, in the 19th century. It prompted people to think about the shortness of life. This incredible object is now housed at the Science Museum in London.

Follow me for more #weirdhistory.

I see a lot of people talking about how Mastodon "Feels like the Internet I remember from 20 years ago."

That's no accident. That's Federation. That's UseNet, IRC, Email, Message Boards, etc. What do they all have in common?

Federation: Users congregating around watering holes of common interest, but still being a part of a larger whole.

THIS IS HOW THE INTERNET WAS DESIGNED TO BE. And I am HERE for it.

Saturday was a BOGO sale at Mrs. 8-Bit favorite 2nd hand bookstore and I found a bash book that will be handy at times along with some various games.

Newest addition to the collection are these games on cart for the #commodore #MaxMachine.
Quite chuffed about these.
Look at the amazing artwork.😍
I'm probably going to sell my Max Machine soon, which can only mean one thing.😉

Mastodon.. serious business.

If Twitter is the new Empire, Mastodon is the Rebel alliance?

Is it mastodon etiquette (or whatever the portmanteau for this is) to "favourite" toots as "I like this" but without adding further comment?

Whilst running the RE:Enthused YouTube community I created a bunch of #retrocomputing and #retrogaming resources that are free to use: Firstly the video library, this is free to use footage take from actual retro machines, you can use them as you want without the need for credit (although it's always welcome of course) https://re-enthused.com/free-to-use-video/
