@brenttoderian.bsky.social does this mean I get to have a car that doesn't wiggle the steering wheel and beep at me every 100 meters?

@arroz in mine there isn't a CPU slot, the 030 is soldered into the pcb

Luís Correia @luisfcorreia.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy · Aug 26

You may or may not know that I'm a huge hardware geek.
In fact, I recently found a Discord server where most (if not all) are gentle like minded minds, sharing the love and interest for all things Retro

So, if you're one of us, join us!

(mainly UK based but many people from all over) […]

@arroz you can't compare incumbent postal services with efficient private sector delivery service

(although I do understand and share that frustration)

Attached: 4 images The main attraction seems to have made it over more or less intact thankfully. Will have to inspect the innards more closely, of course (it needs repaired anyway). It’s huuuge and clunky and gorgeous and best of all, it’s mine now!!

@bagder MG has internet connectivity, so I guess it can be added to the list. I'll try to find actual proof
