Followed Ben Eater's instructions on creating a computer clock ... feel like I'm a monkey poking the outlet with a wire coat hanger .. BUT I am learning.

Any of you ever name all your kids after the IC chips in an Amiga?

A viewer found this 286 motherboard in a thrift shop. I had been converted into a clock by drilling a hole right through the board.

Quite a few of you have downloaded 'Primavera'. Firstly, thank you!
I've just re-recorded and replaced the last track 'Kenopsia'. Please don't forget to download. I'm also away from home with my portable setup. I may re-record it again in future

Until recently, I'd been off social media for quite a while; that doesn't mean I wasn't toiling away on #PETSCII ideas in the background the whole time.

Dandy (1986)

The original Dandy on the Atari 8-bit was the main inspiration for the arcade hit Gauntlet (and there were some legal issues between Gauntlet-maker Atari and the developer of Dandy, which were apparently resolved when they gave him a Gauntlet-cabinet). 1/3

I have a Commodore Amiga 500 Rev 5 board and in order to upgrade to newer ROMs or to use a PROM, I need to make modifications to deal with the OOPS shown in the schematic.

Cut trace on each side of pin 31 and bodge Agnus, Kickstart, and the 68K together.

With the revival of the much-loved Commodore brand and the new team who put so much faith in me as a hobbyist, I got to see my own work all over the Internet for much of this year. 🤯

Heading into 2026, I will finally shut up about it [muffled cheering]. Happy New Year you lovely people! 🎉
