@1Bit I'm jealous! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. In the meantime at least I've got a JrJr to play with. Anyhow, that's a fantastic setup sir, ten out of ten.
Greetings all, I just finished wrapping up my next video! In this video, I talk about a set of scripts and programs I wrote to simplify the process of setting up a Raspberry Pi system as if it were a modern retrocomputing system (like the x16). This video involves or mentions the following: #rpi, #rpi400, #tic80, #x16, #f256, and #x65. Hope you enjoy:
@tschak No need to apologize. Taking care of the family comes first. We will hear the latest after things calm down.
Greetings everybody! I just finished up making a new video in which I (with no real experience) go about starting the process of making a little hobby compiler for #6502 systems (think #x16, #cx16, #f256, #x65). It may not be the most earth shattering project, but I had fun working on it and hope that maybe you'll have fun watching it.
@tschak While I understand your sentiment, I don't find the watch demographics quite as humbling as I do correcting/editing of the auto-generated closed captioning for my videos. Doing that always causes me to doubt that I was ever taught to speak correctly.
In either case, hang in there. Your highly focused current demographic means that you have a large opportunity for growth.
The F256 Jr. "the 2nd" can be pre-purchased for an intro price of $175 USD in pico-ITX form factor - it is a 65816 based retro computer packed to the GILLS with features, competing in the same 8/16 bit space as the X-16 and others.

@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!
Here’s the first engineering prototype of Pilet 5! It’s coming together nicely, but I’m still testing and making some tweaks. Next up, I need to work on coding the controllers. #raspberrypi #cyberdeck #console #linux #portable #computer #kde
@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:
@1Bit I've already got one on pre-order... I think its got an amazing look and the specs look intriguing.
The F256K2 is coming!
It will be showcased at VCF Mid West this coming September 7-8 at the Schaumburg Convention Center
