Went to a retro gaming market in Bolton today. Crazy busy and I didn’t manage to fill any gaps in games I’ve written but don’t own.
Picked up @merman1974.bsky.social ‘s book (signed!) and @jazrignall.bsky.social ‘s book though. Plenty of of reading there.
I need every single male artist that follows me to read this. It's not very long. You need to bear witness to this shit. You have to see it with your own eyes because you never will in your everyday life.
I'm serious, read it all please
New blog post - a look at serial interfacing on the Commodore PET.

It turns out it can be done quite easily, as long as you don't want to go too fast.
For lent I have given up
Oh cool.
Some lame grifters have stolen one of my Bioshock remixes and is selling it as their own.
The song is free on my bandcamp, because I just want people to enjoy it, so I'm not losing money - but it sucks it's just THAT easy for pricks to steal shit

Down to five copies of The Console left here, on hand - copies I can sell to you for £15 posted.
Cheers to people who've bought a copy over the last week - I lugged them up the hill to the post office yesterday, so they're on their way to you now.
Want a copy? Lmk, and it can be done.
I've been working on a new HuC6280 (PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16) to BBC Micro SN76489 converter. Quite a challenge to fit 6 channels into 3, but trying a new technique with arpeggiation. 🔊
Reposting this. BlueSky is dominated by American political stuff at the moment, which makes it hard to find retro and maker content for all the noise.
So where are people talking about weird hardware and homebrew software?
Retro computer enthusiasts: you might find this CPU opcode app useful. Please let me know of errors and omissions!

Proof of Concept:
Can the legendary Casio VL-1 sound be recreated on a MOS Technology 8580 SID?
I gave it a try using “Da Da Da” by Trio as the test case. 🎹
That iconic VL-1 preset meets 3 SID channels.
No samples. No emulation. Just pure synthesis.

Oh ho! A race is afoot, apaw and perhaps even ahoof!

Boosting this for Andy - his kits are incredibly cool and well thought out. Really enjoyed building mine and it gets a fair amount of use. Website link below.

As more and more jobs are replaced by automation, ai or overseas companies, the world still needs people to buy stuff. Universal basic income is the only way.
THINGS WE COULD ALL DO WITHOUT What not to say to someone with a chronic illness | But you don't look sick. | Have you tried yoga? Or cutting out gluten? | Everyone gets tired. I'm exhausted too. | You just need to push through it. | At least it's not cancer. | My aunt had that and she's totally fine now. | But you were fine last week. Belief costs nothing. Sometimes the kindest thing you can say is simply: I believe you.
I just received a fantastic gift from a friend – thank you so much, Beautiful Bits!
