@shortcircuit.org.uk Retro Fest mentioned at the bottom of the Guardian article www.theguardian.com/games/2026/m...

@bzotto.bsky.social arrived in the UK

Great to have lots of Indycar coverage in the uk but Pictures don’t seem to be matching audio #skyindycar

I made a joke in my main Discord server about DOOM E1M1 being in a major key and @abigbagofkeys.sickonedude.com actually made it. Jesus fucking Christ listen to this hahahaha

We're going to do it all over again! Very excited to announce RetroFest 2026 to be held at Swindon's STEAM museum on the 30th/31st May. If you'd like to exhibit, just full in the form - and if you'd like to come, why not buy a ticket! They also make wonderful Christmas presents :) - retrofest.uk

Last few days for funding “Go Computer Now!”, a book about the nearly forgotten, pioneering Utah computer firm Sphere (1975–1977) that you likely *never heard about*. (I edited the book.) Help us get over the last hump at www.kickstarter.com/projects/bzo... @bzotto.bsky.social

Just backed www.kickstarter.com/projects/bzo...

If you want to learn more about these computers and the people behind it that beat Commodore, Apple and Tandy to the market but still lost out—there’s a Kickstarter for a book about Sphere Computers going on right now, they could use a few more supporters. www.kickstarter.com/projects/bzo...

Had to remove 14 adds before I could read this arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...

Binged watched all of @retrobytes.bsky.social videos over the last few weeks. Entertaining, educational and informative. It did make me re-live the trauma of Oracle on Netware among other things.

Mr Spectrum Nez elsewhere spotted the new goal at the point the team breach the most successful KS - you still have this weekend to back!

Over the weekend @theretroasylum.bsky.social interviewed the people behind the ZX Spectrum Next to chat to them about their latest Kickstarter campaign: youtu.be/JpK9sbkWSb0?...

@chrisoreganuk.bsky.social & @deanswain.bsky.social chat to @olifiers.bsky.social and Chris Hill about the amazing successful 3rd Kickstarter campaign of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Next and a whole lot more! traffic.libsyn.com/secure/retro... #zxspectrumnext #sinclair #zxspectrum #kickstarter

The one in which I talk about the success of the ZX Spectrum Next Issue 3 Kickstarter and what's around the corner.

One of the best/ most comprehensive computing history books I have read (and I have read a few)

Must be in the right car park #retrofest2025

Isambard Kingdom Brunel would like to remind you that it's just TWO WEEKS until RetroFest! retrofest.uk

TIL: The 2000s piracy PSA used a font designed by the fantastic Just van Rossum, whose brother Guido created the Python programming language.

It's time for another video! Get updates on the exhibitors, find out how many capacitors there were in that jar and see what happens when @petescircuit.bsky.social goes out to meet the public ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l4O...

We thought we'd take advantage of our dashing good looks and natural talent in front of the camera to create a video to tell you a little more about us and RetroFest - please do all the subscribe and share stuff if you want updates on the event (or just like looking at us!) youtu.be/UCZ-BtFW9Ok?...

Waffles you say? Oh, go on then: creators.spotify.com/pod/show/pla...

Hey guys, cheap Levi's.

We are VERY excited to announce our first major retro event - RetroFest 2025, to be held at STEAM, the GWR museum in Swindon on 31st May / 1st June. Over 40 exhibitors will be bringing a vast range of computers from the 70s, 80s and 90s. More info - retrofest.uk

Another MicroBeast lives!

It’s the 80s, you’re working at Sinclair research, designing the Sinclair Spectrum, when suddenly Sir Clive pops his head around the door and says, ‘We don’t need to cut costs after all, just make it as good as you can’. What are you changing? #RetroComputing

@chrisoreganuk.bsky.social what day is it?

Better late than never, here is our video that takes a look at The Spectrum, which is a modern remake of the great British 8bit home micro from 1982: youtu.be/i2cW8rZwM-A?... #thespectrum #sinclair #zxspectrum #retrogamesltd
