Deeper down the rabbit hole I go

This season I am officially digging myself deeper into the realm of retrocomputing\retrogaming. Hopefully, sometime between June and August, I'll be getting a 1541Ultimate II and a C64 Reloaded board. I will be seeing how far back in time I can drag myself.

A little cranky are we?

My desktop is getting a little slow. That doesn't matter, when I get back to work, I'll be basically doing a complete rebuild of it. A new power supply first, then a new CPU, RAM, yadda yadda. At the end of all of that, I should be able to run the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V and pretty much everything else for that matter.

Back to the grindstone!

I am proud to announce I am officially back to work in 14 hours. Sometime next month I'll be ordering a new power supply for my desktop and give MiniMe some rest and relaxation.

Another death...

I learned today that the grandmother I hardly knew passed away. The only part of her name I know is Barbara. I don't know if I'm even spelling her name right, so, tomorrow, I'll know more information when my father gets back from the UK.

My music...

It's well established that I like listening to chiptunes and chiptune remakes. But, in the depths of my collection of 170K+ audio files, I discovered a mashup of Rambo II and Green Beret by Martin Galway. This track which is almost 8 minutes long, makes me want to cry in unspeakable euphoria. This module is by Jogeir Liljedahl. This music pretty much sums up my life in 8 minutes.

OOPS!

I ordered a VGA+audio cable to connect my soon to be built DOS gaming PC and some how it ended up in Felton, Delaware. I'll post the circuitous route on my other blog when it gets here.

EndOfCalendar != EndOfWorld

Get the FUCK over it! The world will not end for 10^9 years! The Mayan calendar may end, but the world will keep on running. END OF LINE!
