I like looking at old magazines, they can be a mine of useful information when you're trying to solve issues with the more obscure retro computers. Whilst looking through this issue of the Japanese magazine Basic I found these pages on the computers being sold at the time (1990/01) #retrocomputing

It's been a while since I posted anything of consequence and I yanked my most recent streams of consciousness off #gemini.

Not sure when that will change. For now, I'll keep boosting stuff here and there.

Maybe I'll draw up a new gemlog tomorrow to explore feelings, provide context, and keep from sounding like an intentionally mysterious pensive dweeb for no reason all over your feed. 😑

when someone asks for troubleshooting help but you need more details so they end up having to get back to you later

done, so if you are local and need a serial mouse I'll give you one xd

I think I’m one of the few iPhone and iPad users who really is super unenthusiastic about the hardware. So much so that I really can’t tell you what generation iPad I have other than I bought it a year ago or so… I simply like iOS and buy a new device when I need it.

There’s a lot of talk today about the price of video games, but considering what prices used to be back in the 80s and 90s we have it good today.

That’s 1995 in this photo and games are $100. With inflation that’s $195.55 today.

We don’t have it too bad.

Someone asked me, "What's the business case for websites integrating with #ActivityPub?"

Let me answer that question with a question: what's the business case for the web itself?

I don't have to make a page for the web. Instead, I can demand that everyone access my stuff through a BBS.

So why make a webpage?

If you answer that question, you also realize the business case for ActivityPub.

🎮 Despite its popularity, #PlayStation Plus' cloud gaming capabilities are barely discussed.

Interested in how the service performs and its value, compared to its competition? Check out our review:

I do wonder what it would be like if football (as in the FIFA kind) were more like ice hockey, and by that I mean that fights are tolerated to a certain extent and teams had an enforcer to punish opposition players who don’t play fair. Certain players who we all know act to get a penalty or free kick would not want to take the risk if they know a 250 pound enforcer would them on.

Finished #MaxPayne2 on #SteamDeck and it's great! Unlike the first, no extra fixes needed. I just used an older version of Proton (5.13-6 if I recall correctly) to be safe, but that's it.

It takes the same winning gameplay & storytelling recipe as the 1st, but with improved graphics and controls.

The only difficulty I had was during this part where you have to snipe enemies down, and it can be frustrating to aim precisely with the joysticks.

New games! Anyone know a great way to remove these type of video rental silver stickers? #retrogaming #nes

Bienvenido a la gran familia de Bugs Incorporated.
Tu primera misión será exterminar las plagas de gusanos gigantes ‘Giant malum cimex’ y las arañas ‘Aspersos maculis aranea giant’. Cada uno de estos insectos tiene una subespecie que se diferencia por el color de su pigmentación. Siendo los más lentos los verdes y los más rápidos los rojos.
Tu principal arma será tu pulverizador Comm-0-do-re 64, que eliminará cada uno de ellos de forma eficaz. Si pulsas su botón varias veces, la nube de disparos se elevará, convirtiéndose en un insecticida más mortífero, además de llegar a lugares que antes parecían inaccesibles. Este artilugio tambié detecta el número de huevos que le quedan a cada una de las variantes de insectos por su pigmentación.
Deberás hacer desaparecer todas y cada una de las plagas de los 5 invernaderos donde se cultivan especies de plantas raras.
Este es el argumento de esta pequeña joya de @darro99 para #Commodore64 y #TheC64 llena de diversión, buenos gráficos y efectos que te engancharán desde el primer minuto.
Descárgalo ya desde darro99.itch.io/bugs-inc No te lo pierdas 👍😋🖲️ #retrogaming #retrogames #videojuegos #videogames #retrocomputing
