The #C64 USB-C Power Upgrade & FIX
A fix or rather an upgrade to USB-C power for the #TheC64... I've been struggling with reliability unit due to the flakey Micro USB socket. This mod which fits a USB-C power port to a 'The #C64' fixing the power issues and allowing the use of #RaspberryPi 4/5 PSU.

The 1991 - 1997 BBC One globe: behind-the-scenes - Rewind
In February 1991, BBC One launched a new on-screen identity, designed by Martin Lambie-Nairn and Daniel Barber.

I think we're all struggling with this at the moment. Like wise ive also noticed a downward 'shift' in uptake and engagement on X. Its as because as Twitter it used to be one of the better platforms for me, finding it a positive experience back then.... not so much now sadly....
