Feeling optimistic today.

Just finished working on my latest video, which I do believe is my best one yet. In this video, I talk about and show of my prototype/mock-up for a #smallweb browser/platform which is specifically designed with modern-retro systems in mind (i.e., #x16, #f256, #x65 and the like). Enjoy!

@gardiner_bryant Not sure if this is what he meant, but any time I don't understand something that younger people say, I always consult urban dictionary:

Greetings all! I just published a new video a couple of days ago talking about how I got into the whole #modernretro / #neoretro scene. I talk a bit about #godot and #tic80 and even show off some prototype games I made for both systems. For my next video, which I haven't started working on yet, I plan to focus on my current modern retro projects which I plan to get running on both the #x16 as well as the #f256 . Anyhow, hope you all enjoy it!

@smoku@vivaldi.net I totally, gotta ask. When you finish designing your system are you planning to sell them? If you are, I would be highly interested.

@geerlingguy A stolen voice eh. Wasn't that the power move of some famous villainess within a kids cartoon that involved a mermaid...

I suppose they don't even feel like they are the bad guys. What interesting times we live in.

I might be strange, but I'm of the opinion that the world needs more modern #retrocomputing content on YT. With that in mind, I decided to create a new channel and be part of the solution.

I plan to talk mainly about video game and code development for modern retro systems like the Commander #x16 and the Foenix #f256 . Be forewarned, I'm completely new at making videos so please excuse my lack of skill and experience in this area. Anyhow, here's my channel intro:

@dillera This may be a question with an obvious answer. But if it works with the #f256 will FujiNet also work with the upcoming #f256k2 ?

@1Bit I've already got one on pre-order... I think its got an amazing look and the specs look intriguing.

@artemist well, its super niche, but you could get into the modern retrogaming scene. Perhaps take a look at the #X16 , the #F256K , or the #MEGA65 .Those machines definitely have unique aspects to them and the communities are really great.

@knightsofbytes I don't have a functioning NES anymore, but I do have have a new and functioning #X16 . I don't know if you've ever considered porting the game to that platform, but I for one would totally grab a copy.

Thanks and congrats on the milestone!

@fozztexx I'm not sure if it aged well and it was 90's not 80's, but as a kid I was quite font of this computer themed cartoon called 'Reboot'.

Maybe that might be worth looking at depending on what you need it for.

@mntmn Perhaps you could take a look at the #system76 keyboard configurator: https://system76.com/accessories/launch/download and then you can take an even closer look: https://github.com/pop-os/keyboard-configurator . I think that would be a great place to start.

@mntmn perhaps "Hold both to turn on." For the second line. Otherwise, I'd be pushing on the LCD screen instead. Unless that's what you mean.

@martijnbraam Anyhow, I will echo the sentiment that other people shared in that if you are feeling burnt out, please take a break. We don't want developers to feel burnt out like that. That being said, I just wanted to clarify things a bit because I can certainly see how the community may look ungreatful or unsupportive based on those poll results. However, like I said, I think people responded that way specefically because they don't want you to feel burnt out.
