Here is my little home development machine which has the nice Epomaker TH40 keyboard I posted about before. It's a very small form factor machine based on the Radxa Rock 5B SBC.

Minivac 601 Simulator A 1961 relay computer running in your browser

If youโ€™re interested in 1960s relay computer circuits, take a look at this Minivac 601 Simulator I just released!

~2 years of work on and off. Simulating electricity wasnโ€™t as easy as I originally thought :)

That's an interesting one. The command in question works correctly for me. I'll ask some questions in the issue and see what I can work out.

Sneak peak at the kind of thing I'm cooking up.
Planning to have deep dives, shallow dives, TLDR videos and rambling videos. The dives will be on specific pieces of software or tech and the TLDR and ramble videos will more be about concepts. Stay tuned for the channel to go live for real next week.
