For all the retro gaming that goes on here there are very few discussions about CRT's. I always keep my eye out for good (free) ones. I have about 14 so far. This is an interesting project. Replacing the chassis with modern components. What do you think?

You gotta see it to believe it. Hank Hill playing vidya games.: Oh wait a minute! The link is right there!
@admin staff something strange is happening with ...

For most of the past 11 years I have been an avid Arcade game player, collector, photographer, etc. I have many thousands of photos never seen by anyone but me. I have travelled to tournaments all over America and have many great stories to tell.Before I forget the details, I want to get it all ...

The beloved founder of Funspot has passed away. He was 90. I spoke with him many times since I started going to Funspot in 2010. What a great, hard working man. RIP Bob.

When I used to work in an office with a younger crowd, they kept a water cooler in the kitchen area. People would go get water or coffee, and hang around for a bit and chat. "Hey, did you see Seinfeld last night?" "Did you see the latest Dilbert cartoon?" "Do you prefer ...

Don't miss out on this awesome event! If the borders were open I would be there (after an 11 hour drive, and a visit to @Snowflake )

Did anyone attend the IVGHOV over the weekend? I heard there may have been some interesting shenanigans.

Gotta pay those taxes somehow!

I found Jesse's story to be moving. I too know what it is like to toil away, spending thousands of hours on a project. I don't do mine for money though. I do it for the satisfaction of tackling puzzles ...

An update from our good friend Tipster

Just posting this here so I can link to it.

This is a photograph of Billy Mitchell and PacMan. Taken in Fairfield Iowa, 2014. This photograph appears all over the internet. Publishers have taken the photo from Billy's twitter feed without giving me any credit at all. This goes against ...

Somebody seems to have mistaken me for Todd Rogers! 5 minute mark.

I could not sleep last night, so I just kept coding away. I added a spider, and improved the animation for the Intellivision Running Man. This is for my LEDarcade project.https://github.com/datagod/LEDarcade

Check it out! I made this sprite last night and I love it.

Team Billy has been oddly silent over the past few weeks. Could this mean that the court case against TG has bee dropped? Settle?I am still hoping for sanity to reign.

This just came across my desk...

When will this insanity end? Billy was also trying his hand at cancel culture today against David Race. I called him out on it. You can't drape yourself in the American flag while trying to get people cancelled.Notch (maker of Minecraft) has already said he would pay Karl's legal ...

I found a new home for my Raspberry Pi tech articles. Perhaps you could take a gander. https://datagod.hashnode.dev/ Thanks!

Robbie Lakeman, world record holder for Donkey Kong (Arcade), has retired from competitive Donkey Kong.I don't think anyone will ever beat his score, not any time soon. It is just such a brutal game and no other players have that level of dedication, concentration, and lets face it...awesomeness.I ...

This is a tiny radio transmitter running Meshtastic. Private messenging system, off grid, range of 5 miles. You can use it with an app on a phone, no network access required. Each device passes on mesages they detect, making sure your message gets to the destination. Great for groups out hiking. ...

This is a screenshot from the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey
It never got my attention before, but last night I was watching it and I realized they are playing computer chess, with graphics, on a widescreen monitor.This movie was filmed in 1969.
The movie itself is a real slow burner compared to ...

I despise Big Tech censorship and have had a Gab account for years. I rarely use it because Twitter really still has a lot of use especially for following world events. Facebook is great for keeping in touch with friends, but getting 30 day bans regulary is really starting to wear on people.Today I ...
