Here's a video showing Primal Rage 2 running in MAME as well as some of the other Playstation arcade hardware fixes that will be in MAME 0.275 (due in the next week or so) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cyfz...

I’m pleased to report that the #arcade CPS3 adapter for the Open Source Cartridge Reader developed by herzmx is the real deal. I can now erase and reprogram a CPS3 security cartridge in 2 minutes! I wish I had this thing years ago. 😁

Surely this new video won't make me seem like a crank. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEJp...

I wish this guy experienced a boss who did stuff like this just once so he could understand how degrading this is. What an awful situation for government employees to be put in. There are so many better ways to accomplish the same goals without treating people in this way.

I'm happy to announce that I've 3D scanned the full set of 20 figures in the Street Fighter II keshi figure series released by Bandai in Japan in 1992! You can download the full set of 3D scanned figures here: archive.org/details/kesh...

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

I'm not sure why Peter Mount chose Valentine's Day to upload 2,000 arcade game manuals but here we are. archive.org/details/@pet...

It's time to start backing up the web. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGuX...

Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock. If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.

I love this, now do the iOS App Store next!

github.com/mamedev/mame... this MAME commit from smf finally brings Primal Rage 2 to working state in official MAME releases, so it will be working in the build at the end of this month. No more badly hacked up old ancient MAME versions needed.

Wonderful about.usps.com/newsroom/ser...

I assume this loophole would also affect purchases from AliExpress. Anyone know if purchases from Yahoo Auctions Japan are affected or is the removal of the less-than-800$ duty-free rule only applicable to purchases from China?

Today I've got something a little different. Here's a (very philosophical) video and accompanying blog post about why I've finally switched to Linux, and how I'm changing all of my tech habits. Something to think about for the weekend. youtu.be/RbvmtnWe2cw

The PicoROM is now available FOR SALE on my Tindie store www.tindie.com/products/pbr... Be the first kid on your block to own your very own RP2040-based ROM emulator.

New product announcement! There are incredible high-quality audio/video solutions for our retro consoles, but power has been sadly neglected. Not anymore. Introducing the RetroTap -- retro gaming power system. Wire up to 10 consoles to a single power distribution block! /1

CIA Realizes It’s Been Using Black Highlighters All These Years

I was whining to Rick years ago about learning this lesson the hard way, saying I thought I knew what I was getting into and yet … His reply? “There’s a difference between knowledge and experience” Damn good advice

Starting to lay the ground work for rolling CRT beam BFI for use in 1080p and 1440p output modes. Still a lot to learn from @blurbusters.com and Timothy Lottes This is not the announcement for tmr btw.

CRT simulator GPU shader coming December 24, 2024 on github & shadertoy! Genesis of CRT-simulation replacements in future, when used CRT tubes are near-extinct. Tomorrow's 240Hz, 480Hz & 1000Hz OLEDs can optionally faithfully simulate CRT electron beam for 60fps content.

Give me a single screenshot from a video game that immediately makes you hear the soundtrack in your head.

GNET board fixed by re-flashing the modbios to it. I’ll have to swap boards to figure out the fault on my other board set.

Finished recapping, battery holder mod, new thermal pads/paste, Noctua fan mod for my Atomiswave. One more board complete in the backlog!

Confirmed NOT working with QP-150-3A, the dimensions on that appear to have changed quite a bit. Photos courtesy of @enriquelopez.bsky.social

Better framerate than the SNES and the 32X combined 😆 The most powerful VMU is the #VMUPro
