Made this to document my projects and hold myself to account for actually doing them

I also have a Pixelfed account for my photography, yet to be determined how much I will use it https://pixelfed.social/NottheBoson

Got my ticket for my favourite biennial event, see you in the summer! #emfcamp #emfcamp2026

In the meantime @emf, I'm happy to volunteer to help out the run up in any way I can.

Sorry about how grainy the images are.
Met a microbiologist yesterday. She was much bigger than I expected

@rc2014 Thank You! I did that, got it to work on 32k basic over ftdi, then slowly reintroduced the barrel jack, vga and cpm card, net zero change from before but this time is working properly.
I don't understand but I'll take it.

Now I can start on my project idea

Alan Turing died by suicide on 7 June 1954. Turing was convicted of gross indecency in 1952 and given a choice between imprisonment and probation. His probation would be conditional on his agreement to undergo hormonal physical changes designed to reduce his libido. Turing's conviction led to the removal of his security clearance and barred him from continuing with his consultancy for GCHQ. He was denied entry into the United States after his conviction.

@rc2014 I've got the pro model, I've checked and rechecked the jumpers and solder multiple times, and swapped the modules around in lots of configurations to check the backplane. I need a new multimeter as mine is at least 25 years old and very unreliable

@glitch25 Most of my experience with Basic is with the Commodore 64 version, so the pages on basic on the C64 wiki were very useful for the couple of scripts I wrote (a script to find any prime numbers within a given range and a script that would give the Fibonacci sequence for a given number of iterations)

Also found this a nice glossary for ms basic https://bitsavers.org/pdf/victor/victor9000/MS-BASIC.pdf

@rc2014 thanks, the vga terminal card is working perfectly, it displays the picoterm screen but nothing happens when I try to restart and doesn't boot into cp/m or basic so thinking it's not seeing the rom for some reason.
