  • Happy Holidays

    From Netsurge@77:77/5 to All on Tue Dec 24 00:51:24 2019
    Here is to hoping that everyone around here has a happy and safe
    holiday season.

    For those of you who get a break during the holidays, enjoy your time.
    May I suggest firing up an emulator (or real hardware if you have) and
    enjoy some classic 8 or 16 bit retro games. It has always been a bit
    hot in my household.

    Happy holidays to you!

    I just installed arch on an intel NUC and have basically turned it into a
    retro gaming machine. Kodi has an internet archive game launcher addon which makes retro gaming pretty painless. It's been fun so far :)

    Great, something new to try.

    I've been C64 gaming on my SX-64 and using BMC64 on a rPi. All my real
    hardware (except for the SX-64) is in storage while we do the renos.

    I have my 4000 running Hysteria setup in my office until such time as we move back into our house.
