Sought after for its rarity than anything else. It was too limited to be competitive in a fast evolving market where buyers started to expect colour and sound from even entry level micros.

Always nice to receive videos like this from friends 🤗🤓

I used this feature yesterday afternoon on my car too.
But it's not an EV, it's a Range Rover Sport which I think has had this feature on some models for quite a few years.
A very welcome thing to have!

I will defo be watching this not had a chance yet.
Atari 8 bits are marvellous machines and need to be maintained for posterity!

I remember watching and loving it back in the day, not sure we got all the series in the UK though, hmm..

There was a sequel possibly two.

Awesome that you still have it. I never owned it back in the day, it belonged to the older brother of my friend. But he let me borrow it for a while.
I'm happy to have my own copy more than 40 years later!

Ah, after ages thinking about it and feeling flush as I sold a few things on ebay, decided to scratch this nostalgic itch!
Feeling like 10 years old again thumbing through this amazing book🤗
Wish I had bought it when it sold for £2.95 back in the day!

Excellent 👍🏽

Don't hide the idiot's number mate let everyone see it and I hope you can somehow report them so they get a penalty notice.

The amazing Electroniq from @0xc0de.bsky.social just keeps getting better and better. Here you can see the secrets of Apache Canyons 50fps gameplay (double buffering) via Electroniq's new "view RAM as pixels feature"

Ah so I was right first time, that doesn't happen often!
I did wonder if it was your Alice..

Ah no, saw your exhibits in Swindon.. Alice? 🤓

Atom? 🤔

Oh yes I totally empathise 😂😂

Was great to see you there and grab that early seat in the pub with you. But even better was the conversation about your early days of the game industry and putting the world to rights for the future!
Look forward to seeing you again at the next event 🙂👍🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

Great weekend with old and new faces at the 2025 retro computer festival in Swindon. Thanks to @heredragons.be, @shortcircuit.org.uk and everyone involved in making it happen. Look forward to the next event🙂🤘🏽

Thanks for stopping by and chatting, nice to meet you! 🙂👍🏽

YouTube video by 6502Nerd Generate 8-bit Oric-1 graphics using Copilot!

Quick video of some copilot experiments to see if I can generate some 8 bit graphics for my Oric.. results are variable but not wholly unusable.
Good to know that even if software engineering is obsoleted by copilot, it might not replace my retro-programming fun!😆

YouTube video by 6502Nerd 42 year old Oric-1 loading a 42 year old cassette - then needing to debug in real-time!

Another 42 year vintage new old stock. Tape is being loading for the first time ever.
It worked sort of.. I had to fix a syntax error of a 1983 BASIC program I'd never seen before then try again!

YouTube video by 6502Nerd Loading Oric-1 software unused since 1983!

I bought new old stock Oric software off ebay. So here we have a 42 year old set of tapes, loading through a 42 year old tape player, into my cherished Oric-1 which I've owned new since 1983.
For me the result is kinda mind blowing because it actually worked!

Ah yeah I owned an Oric-1 back in school days and let me tell you I didn't let anyone know because then being shoved in a locker would have been the least of my worries.

What about this extended basic in the screen, didn't know about it, can you tell me more?

Not many people have one of these 👍🏽😅😅

Definitely matey, we'll have a beer or two at the pub as well 🍻👍🏽

Yes planning to be there, are you going?
