I've been using Apple Music on Android for seven years now, with my whole family on my plan. And suddenly I'm not allowed to use the app anymore, because I decided to take ownership of my devices? Your loss, I know how to navigate the high seas. #AppleMusic #Android #root

This C64 set from Ebay arrived today. First time I use a C64, looking forward to learning more about this thing. #C64 #Commodore #retrogaming

Fuck Mod Retro and Chromatic. I know there's no ethical consumption under capitalism but Palmer Luckey is a Zionist who creates AI weapons. It isn't that hard to spend your money elsewhere

After being extremely cryptic about the new hardware project I'm working on in my last "photo of my monitor" post, here's a hopefully less cryptic one. Now that more things are working, here's a clue that is hopefully a little more obvious about what it is:

Shonumi has published his book on the Pokémon Mini: shonumi.github.io/books.html - his Edge of Emulation reports on obscure Game Boy hardware are legendary, so I expect this to contain a lot of fascinating Pokémon Mini trivia and technical insights. #Nintendo #Pokemon #PokemonMini

CartFriend 0.2.4 for Flash Masta cartridges is now out! Dave has generously lent me his rev5 unit, allowing me to finally debug and fix the issue that prevented WW support from working on these newer cartridges.

And now we come to the end of Season 4 #StarTrekVoyager.
"Hope and Fear" the last episode to stack from laserdisc NTSC-J (Japanese) - there is a Season 5 on laserdisc but by that time DVD got their act together and its superior to upscale from.
Loved showing u raw LD stick with me as we upscale!

Been playing around with USBRetro, the Raspberry Pico and PC-Engine. Only took some minor configuration and it works on the Pico. Thanks a lot for publishing the source,

Looking forward to building this myself some day. Looks like it's pretty much completely available now from the links in the blog post. Great work, @embedded-ideas.de!

Ok. Do I NEED three defective Doctor V64 N64 copiers? No. Absolutely not. I already have several working ones. But at €9 for all of them... how could I possibly say no?? #RetroGaming #CollectorProblems #N64

This is going to be interesting. RP2350B-based, open source/open hardware and per game palettes? Where can I sign up, I want this! #Gameboy #DMG #Nintendo

I'm impressed by how many people didn't get the connection between how Adam Sandler was dressed at tonight's Oscars.

Made palettes switchable for NES lumacode with the OSSC. Opened a pull request, let's see if this makes it to official firmware.

At this point I have no idea why German Bahn even bothers to provide timetables and connection information.

Curious about what these tables in this German Regional Express train were originally designed for. They're clearly not meant for typing, the height is far too low to be comfortable.

Over the weekend I recompiled OSSC for lumacode with Firebrand X palette. Result is here: github.com/herrkuhn/pal... - attached are before and after image. Scaled to 10X with the RT4K.

Modded a Famicom with a PPUDigitizer yesterday, with some inspiration from Adrian's Digital Basement for the placement. Line5X at 1600x1200 (1:1 AR) through the OSSC, then vertically pre-scaled and horizontally decimated and scaled to 10X via RT4K. I've never seen so little noise from a NES console.
