A couple of months ago I built a ZX Spectrum themed 🌈custom keyboard as a birthdsy present for my Speccy loving pal @popey 🎁

https://mastodon.social/@popey/114438652852702651

I love that keyboard and wanted something similar for myself 🥺

My first computers were the VIC-20 and Commdore 64. When I found the SA Retro keycaps at Signature Plastics ⌨️ there was no avoiding the obvious outcome 🤓

So, I've modified an ISO variant 🇪🇺 of the Evoworks Evo80 keyboard 🪛

And here it is, in all it's biege and brown glory 💖 #retro #commodore64 #commdore

Es hat fast 40 Jahre gebraucht bis ich verstanden habe was die Stimme im Intro Screen sagt 😂Weißt du's auch? Der randvoll mit Klassikern besetzte Amiga Stream startet übrigens gleich... #twitch #retro #stream #amiga #commdore #retrotink4k

While I'm waiting parts for my 4016, I thought I'd take a look at the 4040 disk drive. It's going to need a bit of work....

I was going to power it up but I think I need to clean up the drives first and get the heads moving freely.

The motherboard is, as always, clean and tidy as it sits on the underside of the lid so it never gets dirt landing on it. And it also looks like it has DOS 2.0 ROMs so that's a start.

Let’s figure out where the noise is coming from. On the C16 and any other 264 series machine the TED chip does audio, video and I/O. Pin 33 on the chip is the sound output it seems. During a directory listing this stays flat on the scope. When I run a game we can see the waveform. So this rules out the TED chip I would say.

Denise is a new free emulator for the beloved breadbin Commodore C64 and the Amiga (!!!).

I just installed it on my #apple #macmini i7 ...

I was just thinking wouldn't it be nice to go online with my new old C64 breadbin and join #mastodon and the #fediverse? Sounds crazy, right? An old computer and the modern Fediverse?

Well, a quick search and this is what I have found ... O.o

So it IS POSSIBLE to join in via the C64. What a great time to be alive :-) ...

Used ParticlesBBS for the first time on my refurbished #Commdore 64. Now to get a better monitor as the cheap LCD one I got for now is terrible 😝

A little soldering project I wanted to do for a while: A #Commdore #Amiga stereo separation mixer inspired by MsMadLemon, which can be found here https://github.com/dschneller/AmigaStereoMixer. Works great and sounds brilliant

Hm, I managed to get a new highscore on Night Knight at 1437 and Level 12 or 13 (forgot which one). But still now level code yet! How do I get the level codes???
