In 30 years of working the only improvement is working from home. Better family life, no commute, fewer vehicles on the road, less stress, a fortune saved in lunches and parking. Anyone against it is pure evil.

Here's the latest episode of the GrumpyOzRetro pod. Not sure when the next one will drop, but hopefully the delay won't be quite as lengthy as that between episodes 5 and 6. Available here, or wherever you get your pods. youtube.com/watch?v=ufjOPt…

Note to self: If I ever get my hands on a Sinclair C5, I'll have to vinyl wrap it in the classic Lotus F1 JPS livery. If the C5 was good enough for Ayrton Senna, it's good enough for me.

Tellies were better in 4:3 format than 16:9.

Only an idiot would pay a subscription for a doorbell.

No horrendous thumbnails, no clickbait titles... just consistently high quality videos packed with useful info. Congrats on 1M subs. If you're not subscribed to ExplainingComputers, what's stopping you?

Computer games sort of peaked with the 360 and PS3. Since then the development time and costs have gotten out of hand to the point of only having 2/3 games from xbox or Sony per console. It's pointless.

It's unfortunate that the retro community even *needs* a website like this, but if this site stops even just one person getting scammed, then it's worth it. dontmesswithretro.com

It's only about 2 months out of date, but here's the latest podcast ep, featuring TheBasement podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grump…

Just preparing my Amstrad PPC640 for the 2024 Canberra Vintage Computer Exhibition / VCF Down Under, and it turned out that both floppy drives are cactus. Thankfully old mate Gotek saved the day. Crisis averted. vcfed.org/vcf-down-under/

There's no release date yet, but I'm really looking forward to watching this youtube.com/watch?v=OA4vp1…

Just a quickie in lieu of a full episode, on account of VCF Down Under / 2024 Canberra Vintage Computer Expo being only a couple of days away podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/grump…

I was going to share some photos from the Canberra Vintage Computer Expo, but Jeremy Barr-Hyde (not sure if he's on here) did a much better job. You can view his excellent photo album even if you don't do Crackbook facebook.com/media/set/?set…

Back home after an outstanding weekend of vintage computer and console goodness in Canberra. VCF Down Under '25 next year? Yes, this is from last night; I just couldn't be arsed posting until this morning

Please tell me that Canberra's bus stops are heritage listed

Yes, more photos from Canberra. A most excellent photo dump via the OCAU forums forums.overclockers.com.au/posts/19529938/

Not long to go now until the 2024 @morefunmakingit Charity Live Stream! In this video, Lee explains it way more thoroughly than I ever could. Looking forward to it! youtube.com/watch?v=nQ4Q1_…
