One of those will soon get a sunbath. And after that I will have to find a way to connect those to the #Amiga. As far as I can tell so far, no one has apparently tried to do so yet: #Aminet has nothing although a simple connector bridge and and a super simple driver would be enough since the Amiga can drive the needed signal pins. #NES Advantage

@ryanbooker Agreed but IMO the odds are stacked against Ternus doing it with Cook being chairman and Cook likely having selected people who matched his priorities. Jobs had no problem being surrounded by contrarians but Cook seems horribly conformity loving.

@ryanbooker @overcastfm I have long (years) witnessed a similar bug where the speed reverts (upon background-ing) to its previous set value after a change. I have been meaning to report it but I could never figure reliable reproduction steps.

@ryanbooker I just cannot wait for the massive amount of technical debt and hidden bugs that will plague the tsunami of LLM coded software that is coming. This is going to be interesting…

Welp… It’s official, on top of being war criminals they are also insane. My good lord, the wheels are falling off hard from this contraption. It would be funny if they were not at the command of the most powerful military of this planet. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/30/jd-vance-alien-ufo-are-demons

That is nice. Good luck to them. I wonder how they are ensuring they match the internals of the 68881 though since I am not aware of it having been decapped yet. Bus spying certainly goes a long way but some details can only be reproduced from the internal schematics. https://fosstodon.org/@Amiga_News/116311065789868707

Welp. Needs a 060 to run the Pico-8 virtual machine and convert the screen format to planar (C2P). I must say I’m surprised the Pico-8 VM is so demanding and suspect it would probably be better to transcode the Pico-8 code of Celeste instead. An A500 is perfectly capable of running Celeste perfectly. https://oldbytes.space/@EC64/116319640692802901
