I had the privilege of beta testing Gatling Tommy's "Mother of All Blasters" kit. The MOAB fires 50 nerf darts per second (yes, 3000rpm) using its 6 rotating barrels, from a 500 round backpack. More info 🧵

Well that was quite the sight to behold. (At VCF SW in Dallas)

The amazing Sony KX-45ED1 in the flesh.

Thanks to the efforts of the DFW retro computing community, I will be showcasing the mythical KX-45ED1 at Vintage Computer SouthWest in Dallas this weekend. Hope to see you there!

if switch 2 is so good, how come there's no switch 3?

Such a shame Nintendo doesn't support backwards compatibility with the best Switch accessory

Someone at Nintendo saw the scalpers and was like "yo what if we did that"

It's still crazy to me that nobody has developed a GBA e-reader "flash cart" style ROM hack of the e-reader ROM where you can pop up a menu to select from a list of "cards" on your SD card to have the e-reader "scan". Would make lots of obscure content way more accessible.

Tonight I attempted a method to add fake scanlines to lumadoub using only i2c commands to try to turn the DACs on and off every line.

Nope, not gonna happen. It's just not fast enough. Guess I'll have to explore other methods that involve additional components.

Check out my stupid dongle that lets you power your 8" pvm off USB C. DM me if you wanna buy one for $25.

Any intellectual property or trademark lawyers out there willing to chat and offer me some guidance?

I have an absurd idea I want to pursue, but want to make sure it's reasonably achievable before I start burning money trying to make it happen.
