While I backup my PC (one harddrive crashed 😶) I'm doing another data forensic evening, scanning a few data tapes for C64 content the world may have forgotten already ☺️ maybe I'll do this the rest of my spare time in life because there are a few dozen Datasette tapes left to check ❤️ #c64 #datasette #datasettegamer #datatape #computape #commodore64 #datarecovery #keyboardcowboy
