   The beauty of having the REPL is that I've fixed this. Missing trailing / on the site URL: (= site-url* "https://twostopbits.com/") "https://twostopbits.com/" (

   Would love to hear what enhancements retro folks would like. The one thing I plan to add shortly is tags so that it's possible to filter by say 6502 or c64 or zelda or ...

    I had an encounter like this in real life. Turns out Tom Scott was a really early contributor to POPFile. He was a teenager and I’d never met him. Had been enjoying his YouTube channel for a long time. One day he interviewed me at some conf

    I have one complete working machine. Keeping the other boards as spares. I just need to finish stripping and spraying the cases. And, thank you, for sending them to me. I hope to have a completed machine before Christmas.

    Yeah. Those screws are tiny. I was lucky in that I bought a set of screwdrivers especially for dealing with small electronics. Unfortunately I was unlucky in that my two machines only had three screws left between them! If you let me know w

    GMT became the standard just because they did it first. Sort of. Lots of countries used a local meridian as their 0 degrees reference for longitude. Then in 1884 there as the International Meridian Conference ( https://en.wikipe
