I had the privilege of beta testing Gatling Tommy's "Mother of All Blasters" kit. The MOAB fires 50 nerf darts per second (yes, 3000rpm) using its 6 rotating barrels, from a 500 round backpack. More info 🧵

Who am I gonna see at Open Sauce this year?

Well that was quite the sight to behold. (At VCF SW in Dallas) The amazing Sony KX-45ED1 in the flesh.

Thanks to the efforts of the DFW retro computing community, I will be showcasing the mythical KX-45ED1 at Vintage Computer SouthWest in Dallas this weekend. Hope to see you there!

if switch 2 is so good, how come there's no switch 3?

Such a shame Nintendo doesn't support backwards compatibility with the best Switch accessory

Made a second-channel video going over the project, showing it working, and explaining updates and progress. youtu.be/WP54d7D57Aw

I'm excited to finally release the first public version of WavePhoenix, my open-source implementation of a Nintendo WaveBird receiver - github.com/loopj/waveph...

Someone at Nintendo saw the scalpers and was like "yo what if we did that"

I ordered 3. Not even joking.

My cat was on the home page of Wikipedia. So proud of her

It's still crazy to me that nobody has developed a GBA e-reader "flash cart" style ROM hack of the e-reader ROM where you can pop up a menu to select from a list of "cards" on your SD card to have the e-reader "scan". Would make lots of obscure content way more accessible.

Tonight I attempted a method to add fake scanlines to lumadoub using only i2c commands to try to turn the DACs on and off every line. Nope, not gonna happen. It's just not fast enough. Guess I'll have to explore other methods that involve additional components.

Progress report on LumaDoub: my attempt at a simple open-source universal 240p/480i transcoder with line doubling. Working features: ✅Dev Board works ✅Composite in ✅S-Video in ✅YPbPr in ✅Composite + Svid out ✅YPbPr out ✅RGsB / RGBHV out ✅Force 240p out from 480i in

Buy @tinari.bsky.social's game. If you already have it, buy it again.

Check out my stupid dongle that lets you power your 8" pvm off USB C. DM me if you wanna buy one for $25.

Any intellectual property or trademark lawyers out there willing to chat and offer me some guidance? I have an absurd idea I want to pursue, but want to make sure it's reasonably achievable before I start burning money trying to make it happen.

Someone writing a Wikipedia article about the KX-45ED1 has reached out and asked me to publicly post these images along with a license so that they can use them on the article. I own the copyrights for these pictures, and I license them under CCBYSA 4.0 intl creativecommons.org/licenses/by-...

RGB and S-Video modded this weird little dude. It's a 16" Widescreen standard-definition Japanese Trinitron

Looking for someone who owns an NEC XP29 plus to test something for me. Specifically the xp, specifically the 29, specifically the plus. I need a dump of the EEPROM to test something. Will buy you the hardware to dump it and walk you through it. I have safely dumped my XM29+ eeprom multiple times

Sooo... Anyone going to CES wanna say hi to Sony for me? 🫣

Slowly making my way through my backlogs of notifications, messages, emails, and more. The outpouring of people offering to assist, stories, memories, and kind words... it's been incredible. Thank you all. I am doing my best to get back to as many people as I can.

I went to bed expecting to find a couple messages waiting in the morning, but I woke up to find orders of magnitude more Bluesky notifications than I was expecting. I still have some Christmas prep to do, so I am sorry I can’t reply to everything, but thank you very much for your kind words 🙏

2 years ago I responded to a Tweet from @shankmods.bsky.social It turned into an unforgettable adventure Shank is a great storyteller, and the video he made chronicling the whole ordeal is truly something special Even if you have no interest in CRTs, it’s worth a watch! youtu.be/JfZxOuc9Qwk?...

New video. This one has been in the works for over 2 years. I think this is the best story I will ever tell on my YouTube channel. youtu.be/JfZxOuc9Qwk?...

Started a starter pack of retro gaming mod creators, if anyone knows of people I'm missing that have a Bluesky account let me know. go.bsky.app/AiT5yE4 This should make it pretty easy for people switching over here to find modding news. :)

Been looking at item spawn rates for Kirby Air Ride with UnclePunch. Spawn rates change based on... a lot of things. Here's a thread of some fun findings... 🧵
