PDP-11 Lives In Literal Computer Desk Once More

When you think of iconic parings, your brain probably goes more to “cookies and milk” than “DEC and Ikea” but after watching [Dave]’s latest on Usagi Electric where he…

Usagi’s New Computer Is A Gas!

[Dave] over at Usagi Electric has a mystery on his hands in the form of a computer. He picked up a Motorola 68000 based machine at a local swap meet.  A few boards, a backplane, and a power supply.…

Eu acho essa série de videos do canal Usagi Electric sobre a restauração do Bendix G15, uma verdadeira aula sobre história da computação. Recomendo para os fãs de computadores antigos e estudantes de computação.

Anyone know what folks like #UsagiElectric & #curiousMarc use to highlight and annotate PDFs on their videos?

Me chamem de nerd (por favor), mas a engenharia e a ciência escondidas por trás de algo tão simples como um leitor de código de barras é fascinante! (ok, pra mim, pelo menos)

Now I've got some audio out of #musicn Inspired by #usagielectric, I'm going to start having a weekly rotation of three personal projects. This is to make sure they stay fun and don't become a source of burnout. The rota is going to be:

1. A #retrocomputing project, currently #musicn.

2. A modern #foss project, currently #Fediverse focused, and specifically developing #fcli into a testbed for ideas on a client more focused on building relationships and communities.

3. A non-computing projects, which currently means #sewing.

I have a long list of ideas in all of these categories, so at some point I'll write that up and put it on my website.

New #UsagiElectric video just dropped. I now have to resist the urge to watch it before I finish the housework.

I only stopped for lunch. Why did I look?!
