ooh ... any public info on that?
I'm hoping at some point I'll do some actual FPGA programming on it but so far I've hit ENOBRAIN when I try ... one day
it includes the 'minimig' core which implements a variety of Amiga systems in there but I haven't yet managed to get that up and running - you need the ROMs which are still licensed (I have bought them, I haven't figured out how to drive it yet)
this is why I went the FPGA route and got one of these multisystem.uk/products/mis...
that was the best Ivanova episode
that's my usual question to fans - who's your master?
ooh ... big fan of the book, how does the film hold up?

read somewhere a review that if this were screened on a plane, the audience would still walk out ...

also, your discounted price seems to be UK-only - Amazon won't let me purchase via that link, sorry

ok, interesting live stream of an "Earth view" app showing the New Year around the globe ... YouTube being YouTube there may be ads at some point and you will want to mute it with extreme prejudice, but it does tweak my appropriate-visualisation-appreciation gland ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=oS-c...
a frame from the video "Get Smart" by the Melbourne Ska Orchestra showing a long, flourescent-lit corridor extending into the distance where there is a turn to the right. The floor is bare concrete, the walls are lined in beige metal panels but two sets of panels close to the camera are picked out in a burnt orange colour. The passage is a pedestrian access tunnel running between St Vincent’s Hospital and the Royal Eye and Ear Hospital and runs under Victoria Pde
love this clip and have been playing it regularly for years ... for those interested, the colourful tunnel they move through later in the video is an underground patient transport tunnel running between St Vincents and the Eye and Ear Hospitals
the Paramount arcade just feels so deeply 90s to me with the chunky off-kilter architecture and the wild colour scheme ...
isn't it a gas oven? that's what I always understood it to be. I'm assuming coin-operated for use in very cheap rental/share housing (had heard of coin-operated hot water heaters in similar situations) but ... I have no idea why it is on the moon, nor why it is sentient ...
