I’m in work Monday and Tuesday 👎

Our Samsung 40” LCD recently partially failed but it’s over ten and a half years old. I’m now the proud owner of an LG C5 OLED.

Keeping Up With the Commodore: A Hands-On Review of the Commodore 64 Ultimate Does the Commodore 64 Ultimate mark the triumphant return of Jack Tramiel's "computers for the masses" or a nostalgia-grab? Let's find out.

"If you're a Commodore fan, the Commodore 64 Ultimate will deliver. If this is what the reborn Commodore has to offer as its first commercial product, I can't wait to see what's next"

Check out glowing review from our friends at Hackster!!

YouTube video by Everything Electric CARS The Nissan Leaf Returns with Porsche Taycan Features!

Literally just out. My review of the new, 2025 Nissan Leaf.
14 years ago I started driving the 2011 Nissan Leaf, really the first built from the ground up, mass produced electric car.
Then Gen 2 Leaf, which was an improvement, but this, the Gen 3, is a massive leap forward.

watching this to help me restore my old Spectrum +3 @retrocollective.co.uk @thisweekinretro.bsky.social @davevelociraptor.bsky.social

Yeah, I tried to swap out the old PSU for a Corsair VS350 350 Watt ATX Power Supply but there’s not enough room for the 24 pin connector from the VS350 to attach to the 20 pin power input connector on the MB. There’s a small capacitor in the way. No doubt there’s an adapter I could buy…

@retrocollective.co.uk @dachsjaeger.bsky.social @davevelociraptor.bsky.social it’s a shame I can’t get this old silver relic to power up but at least the monitor works…

It's Spectrum Next Kickstarter roll call and--Chris had one job!

All this and more including Settlers II on Amiga, classic sports sims, and your preferred retro destinations from the Community Question of the Week in This Week in Retro 232, coming Saturday!

I’ve also got a Samsung SyncMaster 1100p Plus and an early 2000s PC in one of those aluminium case’s that need testing etc…

I've just found out that for the 40th anniversary of the film Clue, it's being shown again in cinemas in the US as it originally was, with different endings for each showing. Really wish they were doing it in the UK too.

After all these years, Heretic plays better than it ever has—and thanks to Nightdive, even Hexen sucks far less You can't win 'em all.

"This is a more ambitious archival project from Nightdive than the recent Doom treatment, for its focus not just on posterity but modern playability."

Shoutout to @pcgamer.com for the in-depth review of the Heretic + Hexen re-releases! 🔥
