12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”

Merry Christmas folks. Come join me tomorrow, December 26th, 2025, starting at 2pm eastern for a stream where I unbox items on boxing day and have some fun with Win 98/DOS. Come join me some Boxing day cheer. Thanks to @emkitty.bsky.social and @museumjoe.bsky.social youtube.com/live/5SP5iEI...

On Saturday's noon EST stream, the main goal is to put un-fake cache chips on a PCCHIPS 486 motherboard. I also have another 486 board of dubious origin and some potentially fake 287 chips to check out. Plus, a parallel to SD adapter that @i80386sx.bsky.social sent me! youtube.com/live/A-o4Oqt...

Mounted my new Technicolor Super 8 camera for display. Someone put a lot of love into this. Look at that incredible industrial design!

Tuesday at 2:30PM EST we're going to finish up the FM Towns II UG20 saga so I can get it back to its owner. There's still one floppy drive to service and I'll show how I modified a 72pin SIMM and got a BlueSCSI to work with the machine. youtube.com/live/FW9Mjpo...

Your power bill has tripled and you can't afford new PC parts just to create this.

Time to fix a Macintosh Portable that was saved by Barbara Nelson. Demo unit. Used for about a year or so, and then stored away all these decades.

I’m at the combination Pizza Hut and Kennedy Center.

Still incredibly pissed at Future / Tom's Hardware for taking down the Anandtech front page archives. Being able to reference historical reviews and news articles is super important for tech history research and they've burned a library of Alexandria for... what, exactly?

I hadn’t been watching his activities for a while, but it appears that the known scam artist and unrepentant thief Sean Lee Robinson (also known as Geek With Social Skills) is once again active in vintage computing circles. Avoid this loser, and don’t get scammed. youtu.be/hRkPCjVhM8c?...

Live a life that makes Trump attack you when you die. Rob Reiner was creative, generous, and intelligent; all things a stupid petty narcissist conman finds threatening. Rob left a lasting legacy. Trump will leave nothing when he dies, just a gold plated gravestone people will only visit to piss on
