I really couldn't be arsed to design anything tonight, so ChatGPT knocked this up for me:

Had the pleasure of contributing towards this!

Our sweet fur baby went over the rainbow bridge today 😢

Insanely stoked to have gotten two IBM 5150’s with matching 5151 green phosphor monitors

Thanks @hackaday-feed.bsky.social for the write up! hackaday.com/2025/05/19/m...

Plea to the retro masses: does anyone have (and would be willing to part with) an Olivetti Philos laptop? Cosmetic condition not important, so long as it powers on

I’ve had great fun tonight asking ChatGPT to create YouTube thumbnails for me tonight. This isn’t half bad and took minutes to design with a few prompts

I'm incredibly proud to have acheived a Bachelor's of Science degree in Computing and IT from the @openuniversity.bsky.social www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxmBh...

New Video: The last macOS release to officially support this 2008 Intel MacPro 3,1 was El Capitan way back in 2015, and that hasn't received any security updates since 2018! So let's run a bang up to date release instead, thanks to a community project known as OCLP. youtu.be/0b_A7xhdBFE

In my view, these are the ESSENTIAL upgrades for an Amiga 500: Essential Amiga 500 Upgrades youtu.be/Y6QnPj43GC0

Two of my favourite YouTubers and genuinely awesome people

Oh wow, it's exactly 2 months until RetroFest 2025 in Swindon! If you want to read more about who's coming, take a look at www.retrofest.uk/whowhat.php and if you actually want to see some of them, take a look here! www.youtube.com/@shortcircui...

I’ll be there along with other members of the Big Red Arrow Club

If you saw my Mechtrum video last year, Lee was the amazing mind behind it, and now he’s made an EVEN BETTER one

He’s not wrong. That’s NOT why we’re here

Yes! May 31/June 01 at STEAM in Swindon. Come and see, amongst other things, THIS.

Was a pleasure chatting with Lee last weekend, such a wonderful gent

Very privileged to have had the chance to chat with these two.

I am apparently “the god of tech”. According to my daughter at least

Mighty mini #Arcade replicas - Space Race and Computer Space. Don’t they look cool 😎

I am totally amazed at how well my humble little #marchintosh iMac video has done. Not my usual thing and totally inspired by @actionretro.bsky.social and @tme-retro.bsky.social . Heartfelt thanks to everyone who has viewed it. This community rocks! 😎 youtu.be/p2T-hFp_hBI

When you have to buy a new rack because of all the outstanding projects…

In a change to my usual content (and something WAAAY out of my comfort zone), here’s a video about when I connected an iMac SE to an IBM AS/400 back in 2001, the software I used, and how it worked. How and why would I do this?!? 🤪 youtu.be/p2T-hFp_hBI #marchintosh #appleimac #ibm #retrocomputing

Sometimes projects don't go to plan. This should have been a single episode where I cleaned and upgraded an Amiga 500, instead I clean it and then piss about with it for a while: youtu.be/roqhhmQizDw

So I made a decision, I have now formally left X

Well I had an interesting day....

To all you YouTubers and particularly the Big Red Arrow Club... youtu.be/THUADgyaLJU

Went retro salvaging today, lots to be getting on with:

RETROFEST!!!!!!!

What did we do before the @pcbwayofficial.bsky.social project library was a thing?

A moment of silence for my fallen comrade. My 23+ year old Weller soldering station has finally failed today. Any recommendations for replacements?
