Inspired by @fergycool and thanks to some iSight for MacOS 9 driver spelunking by @vga256 I am currently broadcasting a live feed of the Sakurajima volcano erupting on #GlobalTalk via QuickTime Conferencing.
If I’m going to do this again I’m gonna need a longer FireWire cable… the driver is also in trial mode and quits after 30 minutes.

We're in the process or lighting up our Thinking Machines CM-2 which uses a Symbolics 3670 LISP Machine as its programming front end. The CM-1 was introduced 40 years ago in 1985 and the CM-2 in 1987. While this CM-2 is a single quadrant, we plan to simulate a full CM-2 and have its iconic "deep thought" lights running. Here you can see our lamp panels displaying a clock. This work was done by Jeff Kaylin.
New video! I'm building a Magic Desk style multi program cartridge for the Commodore 264 line of machines.

Back on #MavericksForever. 😅 I just missed it. Getting #MacJournal and #Scrivener for free is a huge advantage of #retroComputing. 😊
Ah well, it was only a matter of time before the vultures showed up.
As someone who lived through the sad collapse of #Commodore, I can’t say I’m too sure about a "YouTuber" trying to revive the brand.
But that said... I still trust him a thousand times more than I would trust *these* guys. 😎🍿

anyone know how to deal with that 2000s–2010s matte surface plastic that inevitably turns into tacky goo? i have a few peripherals, a Nokia 3660 smartphone, and an MP3 voice recorder that have fallen to it

I guess #retrocomputing but current was August, so.
Also have a note about Kent demoing his implementation of his-ansi-cl style error handling introduced to python.
