For any #gamedevs working on #ps1 games, can I suggest making a Konami System 573 version? Benefits include a much easier barrier to entry, *no copy protection* lockout and expanded IO for games to use! Plus it gives my home setup more to play than DDR! 🤣 psx-spx.consoledev.net/konamisystem...

@michaelmjd.bsky.social You’ve heard of Windows NT on Wii native, but have you heard of Mac OS X on Wii? bryankeller.github.io/2026/04/08/p...

Shout out to FedEx who left my package underneath my parked car in the rain and left no note or update to say it was there. i only saw it by chance this morning ffs.

Oh hell yeah

Can't believe it took me 8 months to fix my TrueNAS on Proxmox install and it turns out it was this bugger all along.... grr...

current status: legitimately raging at the fact I have to put an actual fan to stop my premium landfill fodder overheating lately.

Today I learnt that apparently the iPhone 14 (and up?) have boot up and shutdown sounds like the macs of old. Apparently its in Accessibility -> Audio & Visual -> Turn On & Off Sounds. Neat!

Bought a cheap elgato thunderbolt dock off ebay. Opened it up because i do and was not expecting to see a full PCIE x4 slot on the inside. This could make for fun hackery

Couldn’t resist. But gotta say im really happy with the build quality on this.

I now own one of these. Why did I acquire one of these?

This scares me much more than anything else. Mainly because people are pursuing this in an attempt at perfection without thought to the consequences of this. It WILL be abused and it WILL be used to mislead people. People will use this to lie. We shouldn’t let them. www.reddit.com/r/interestin...

USB PSX style memory stick makes me chuckle

Cleaning up in the “office” and noticed my gameboy is not doing as well. Maybe I should convince Elliot Coll into looking at it lol

Slipstreamed both iPhone and Android NDIS drivers so tethering will be a thing. Not sure what I will need internet on the go for but hey its there. And yes I could use WiFi hot-spotting but this lets me also use the 4G/5G USB dongles too.

Windows 11 at 640x480 is kinda funny. Id love to try 320x240 but alas Id need to screw around with the EDID for that… Which I intend to do anyway

Legitimately my first time being on the london underground

Took about 3 months but finally found a grey usb c to usb c that isnt braided but PVC and to boot its also as thick as PS1 controller cables. Time to reprint @jeffchen.bsky.social’s PSX plug!

I heard on @thisweekinretro.bsky.social that Rich from @retrocollective.co.uk doesn't like a PCB with no LEDs. So for him I have expanded this board from 1 to 3 LEDs, because he is right, you always want to see what power rails are present at a glance!

Its tight in these things. So trying out some flat flex cables as a new-to-me idea. And whilst 3D printed flat flex cables are the future, we’re not quite there yet, so if this works, I’ll be getting some polymide ones from @pcbwayofficial.bsky.social

Hardest schematic I ever done did draw.

Who ever is maintaining the 3D viewer, @kicad.org, I owe them a round of beer. It has taken so much guesswork and trial and error out of the design of the DDR cab project!

Getting so tired of seeing soulless AI generated drivel on YouTube. At first you dont think about it and then when you see it, you just know its all a game to play algorithms for cheap cash whilst ripping off honest people’s work

Testing the design with thin plastic covers first. Not sure which has more screws, the main cabinet or just one side of the stage.

Sometimes I really hate Fusion 360's timeline. I swear it will just make up random reasons to stop working.

Things are getting tight enough that I might have to start using flat flex cables just to make it work how I wanted to

PRESENTING BEMANI'S ... STAGE

My first (and only) successful pancake

Messing around with translucent filament for the buttons. Needs tweaking but looking much better and now I can use the buttons without cocktail sticks!
