Came across the phrase "cognitive DDOS" to describe our present culture.
Understood instantly what it meant.
"Top 1/3 of income earners are worried about their employment situation - the most worried they have been in the history of the series about the labour market."
I am sure this is fine
Further proof that tech bros take away the wrong lessons from fiction. See also: torment nexus/twitter

The dish! I can see the bottom of it!!
Thanks!
PETVaders now has full alien formation movement and scoring
How would YOU move 50 aliens left/right/down in formation while allowing the player to move and fire bullets, with collision detection, alien kills, and protective bases that you can destroy? All on a 6502 at 1mhz

SAM in a CAN 2
I've two big projects underway. The first that I'm currently building up for several people (and have parts for more) is 'SAM in a CAN 2' which is an original SAM Coupe motherboard in a new aluminium case with all my major peripherals incorporated.
The second, for which I just use the codename...
Nice! I was expecting someone to have made a SBC/fpga like they did for the MSX before now :)
Now I think on it perhaps the zx uno has a SAM core 🤔
F-35 custom ROM user forum moderator: "Duplicate question/off-topic. Questions about imminent landing failures are not welcome here in 'urgent troubleshooting' please direct your post to 'feature requests/roadmap' in future"
Main difference is I didn't need to sell any vital organs to own a Dragon 32 ;)
(there doesn't even seem to be any modern/FPGA/etc recreations of the Sam unless you count ZX Next family)
PETZerk WIP game for Commodore PET
WIP - picked up the idea of PETZerk (Bezerk demake) for the Commodore PET but in XC-BASIC instead of C this time around.
Originally I was going to fill the screen but by fitting it into a 20x20 character grid I can also more easily port to Vic 20 with user defined characters 🤓
