@Ghost_In_Exile They should be called Cryptderpbros.

@loudscotsbloke Yes, but I’ll leave it for others whilst quietly being miffed that I don’t have one myself :)

@forelioned @Bhaal_Spawn 😁

@JudgeDrokk Curses.

@JudgeDrokk Zaxxon

@Bhaal_Spawn Se also this Half Man Half Biscuit lyric - “There are questions in corners of my mind that lurk, like how do the road gritters get to work? Answer me that and you could win a cruise, here’s Judie Tzuke to take us up to the news.”

@forelioned Aye, the chrome stuff is nice. I've got a half-height unit in my office with my Sharp MZs on. I was lucky in that half my racking came from work when they closed a building down, it's proper industrial stuff.

@forelioned There’s 2 more where those came from 😄 Pleased I discovered a source of ‘proper’ shelving for them even though a bit of modification and strengthening is needed for my use. Currently the other 2 are shelved with flooring chipboard that’s 20yo and VERY warped.

@wet_string_greg @ZxSpectROM I started in 1988, 6 Geordie blokes with a boat full of booze. Splendid 🍻

@anachrocomputer I read that as 'rascal'. Time to head to bed I think!

@RetroBC_Pete 🤣 actual proper house LOL even though I knew what you were going to say.

@RetroBC_Pete :) I could easily lie on those shelves now. Oh wait ISWYM. 'Brains are staying on the shelves they're already on, just need to schlep them down there. That'll be fun.

This weekend’s work was building this little beauty. Making the shelves was a bit more of a challenge than I was expecting but with jigsaw, 2 drills and a supply of cut timber for strength it was done in only a few hours. Yay powertools.

@sanxion Not bad ta! Feet are still working, now with new trainers. Finished the Big Rack in the cabin today and have started populating it with Stuff. If nowt else Mrs Me will be happy 🙃

@ZxSpectROM @wet_string_greg Aye, can’t beat a bit of cruising. Unfortunately Mrs me doesn’t feel the same way. Bah.

@sanxion Nooo! Fingers crossed all is well in a few days.

@TriploidTree @therealfuzzix Woop! Cakey congrats 🎉🍻

@MrPSB I hope so. She makes paint look intelligent.

@PaulieHughes Funnily enough last night I was watching an @ashens presentation at the Norwich Gaming Festival from a couple of years ago where he railed against this bastard child of a squint and a hangover.

@billysastard1 @r3trogam3boy @SWRetroComp @ColonelFalcon @HereBeDragons3 @Devilish_Design @retrokatg @Withnailmarwood @16bitnostalgia @Retro_Computers @apple2europlus I’m only talking Apple ][ here. I’m well aware of people’s dislike of current Apple, it’s very cute in a sort of ‘aw, bless’ way 😄

@TheArduinoGuy I’ve been wanting to do that pun for YEARS but never found the right source images. Well done sah!

@r3trogam3boy @billysastard1 @SWRetroComp @ColonelFalcon @HereBeDragons3 @Devilish_Design @retrokatg @Withnailmarwood @16bitnostalgia @Retro_Computers @apple2europlus Can you show us on the doll where one hurt you?

@Lord_Arse @Bhaal_Spawn @Withnailmarwood Frankie Boyle, “are you sure these are pork scratchings? This one has a tattoo.”

@W1ngsD You can when one of them is dead 😄

@svenpetersen191 @LeftovrBeefcake @RetroWizzard I use both. Sometimes the Brillo just can’t do a proper cleaning job like the sponge can do. Maybe that’s just my Brillo of course.

@nf6x We all called it a harmonica back then, and still do now.

@W1ngsD Well, one’s still with us and one is toast. So, no 😄

@neakmenter @RetroResolution Nice! It looks like a really excellent keyboard to type on and overwhelm the machine by being too quick 😄

@JudgeDrokk @Bhaal_Spawn

@MackJsy @RetroBC_Pete @JonnBlanchard Usually matched to the revision of board you have, so yes.

@billysastard1 @SWRetroComp @HereBeDragons3 @Devilish_Design @retrokatg @Retro_Computers @ColonelFalcon Yikes! Don’t die on us, there’s a good chap.

@RetroResolution Have a nose at my website, though as usual it needs some serious updating.

@neakmenter @RetroResolution I for one demand pictures 😄

@Devilish_Design @SWRetroComp @billysastard1 @HereBeDragons3 @retrokatg @Retro_Computers @ColonelFalcon Are you sure you wouldn't like to keep the f... oh.

@RetroResolution Just as I was thinking I had nearly all of them you show me the LMJ that I'd never heard of! I don't have the Kayde one either.

@PeterGordon68K @YOUWONTBELAFFIN Ermagherd!

@ZZleeZZ They’re 47nF 50V SMD caps in a through hole package. I’m also interested in what they’re actually called! Nothing to stop you using ‘normal’ axial electrolytics of course.

@6502nerd @loudscotsbloke @JonnBlanchard @Devilish_Design @HereBeDragons3 @RetroBC_Pete @SWRetroComp @MackJsy I didn’t realise there was a hierarchy, I just thought it was something like the top 20 accounts you interact with. *goes to have a look*

@loudscotsbloke @JonnBlanchard @Devilish_Design @HereBeDragons3 @RetroBC_Pete @SWRetroComp @6502nerd @MackJsy Yay! Not long to go now 🎉🍻

@quangdx @aravelle Though possibly not one that’s sent to sleep for 100 years.

@JonnBlanchard @asobitech @bulletford @drkninja2k5 @SWRetroComp @RMCRetro @HereBeDragons3 @frazer_HX @Toy_Polloi @jcrowly @conspiracydawg @loudscotsbloke @tazfaedodge @Devilish_Design @Lord_Arse Woo! Only 6.5 hours until we can WEEKEND it again :D Back to working on the cabin. Cheers everyone!

@RetroBrothers @loudscotsbloke Black with white lettering.

@HeyBirt @Devilish_Design Aah shame. I'd read it was folk getting excited over curvy traces.

@HeyBirt @Devilish_Design It has one :) V6 can do curved traces.

@thejanbeta Nice. I keep meaning to do something similar with one of my Meanwell PSUs but terminate the outputs in banana connectors.
