Yeah and I doubt my complaint is going to go anywhere
There was a sudden burst of people downloading the Jaguar demo of Jurl. I can only assume it was shared somewhere but I couldn't find it. That's basically how I discovered a tosser was ripping it off

Oh no, the dreaded banner
Woof, that’s a start to the season #F1
They’ve just copied and pasted text from my jokey Steam release
“Once in a while a game is released that changes the industry … this is not that game”
The thing that really annoys me about this is, if he'd come to me and said "I want to sell some carts, i'll bung you the £1 you charge for the rom when I sell them" i'd have been fine.

A computer screen displays a series of messages indicating timeouts while waiting for ARP/RARP packets. The last message mentions using RARP/BOOTPARAMS and shows the Internet address as 10.0.0.2.
No it isn’t - or maybe the CDs I made aren’t good - but either way it isn’t working. And I’m stuck at the same place, I’m pretty sure it’s a bootparamd thing
The Sun now recognised it as a CDRom on scsi port 6 - but that appears to be it
This may all now be moot - I think the CDRom is once more working
A close-up image of a blue battery with a black label and wires, the battery is swollen
A blue lithium-ion battery pack labeled "CASIO," with specifications indicating it has a voltage of 3.7V and a capacity of 750mAh. Safety warnings against incineration, disassembly, and exposure to high temperatures are printed on it
The charging led briefly lights up, so either the battery isn’t there or it’s dead (I mean - either way it’s definitely dead after all this time)
Probably not actually
A Casio handheld device with a flip cover is placed on a patterned cloth surface. The device features a blank screen and a row of icons at the top, along with a control panel at the bottom. A gray and yellow cable connector is visible near
The image shows a handheld device with a CompactFlash card labeled "Sea Sniper" and marked as 32 MB. The device appears to be a Casio model, with visible battery and rating information on the back. The background features a plaid fabric
Received this little Casio Windows CE machine, looking a little Palm like too. Someone’s been at the battery so it may not work, but it did come with a game on CF card
No, that the old caddy mount DC for professional games players
If it wasn’t a work one, maybe
A display of a Power Macintosh G4 running Mac OS X "Tiger" showing a PicoIDE hard drive listed in the Disk Utility application.
It's sooo cool, seeing the PicoIDE in Mac OS X. Here's a Power Mac G4 (Quicksilver) running 10.4.11 with the PicoIDE set to IDE (hard drive) mode. It sees the drive fine and will even boot to it! 👍
Video coming soon!

No that TV actually has quite a good RF input - it even handles NTSC signals
A hand is holding a metallic sticker labeled "CBS ColecoVision Video Game/Home Computer System" with "Expansion Module Interface" inscribed on it. The background includes a laptop keyboard and parts of clothing.
Another little task for the weekend, received a replacement fascia sticker for the ColecoVision. For some reason I could only buy them in threes - so I guess I can make two mistakes
Close-up of a Raspberry Pi circuit board housed in a case. Visible components include USB ports, an HDMI port, and wiring with red and black cables.
Found a Pi3 inside (neatly enough) my piSparc - can’t reproduce the setup that worked once though
It’s at this point that I really wish I didn’t just have a Pi2 spare …
I *think* something is happening now - I added -r to the rpcbind parameters and tcpview seems to show NFS data
Yeah, it seems more aimed at Linux distros than something like Solaris for Sparc
I'm sure the dhcp is working, because the client definitely seems to load the initial inetboot file.
New plan, possibly out of desperation - i'm going to try ubuntu on the pi. It seems that bootparam is broken on some linux distros
Ah, that’s a good shout - I haven’t fiddled with the NFS configuration, other than setting the root - I wonder what it defaults as
A vertical silver device with a green power indicator, featuring a USB port and audio jacks on one side. It is placed on a desk with a computer keyboard, remote control, and laptop in the background, with dark curtains behind.
I might be a bit snappy - I’ve been trying to get this working for the best part of two days and it’s annoying me somewhat. But, not only did my new camera arrive - but also this, which is largely useless until I actually get a working Solaris installation
