<p>As I have now combined two accounts, I’m just pinning this here:</p><p>If you follow me because we both love music and particularly music on vinyl, then you may want to mute the <a href="/tags/retrocomputing/" rel="tag">#retrocomputing</a> hashtag. </p><p>If you follow me because we both love old computers and particularly the Commodore 64, then you may want to mute the <a href="/tags/vinyl/" rel="tag">#vinyl</a>, <a href="/tags/cassettes/" rel="tag">#cassettes</a> and <a href="/tags/tapes/" rel="tag">#tapes</a> hashtags. </p><p>Of course if you, like me, are passionate about both of those things, then we have achieved enlightenment together and should maybe get married.
