A writer 📝, podcaster 🎧, and YouTuber 🎥 of all things geek. I like to jump around among various geek and non-geek genres. #retro #geek #atari

Also a #teacher, both in tech and music. Day job is director of technology for a K-12 public school district. Living in Ohio, the Heart of it All. 🤣

I stream on Tuesdays 7:30pm EST

My stream is almost all retro all the time, with a smattering of current games.

Setting up my Atari VCS as my ultimate emulation machine.

It’s currently running Windows 11 and showing the Altirra Atari 8-Bit emulator running Donkey Kong.

@AdmiralFrosty oh, that sounds cool! I’ve got to go check!

#BASIC : Beginners’ All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code

With the apostrophe after the 's', as illustrated here.

Yet, over half of the docs I read whilst researching my book get it wrong. Or did Dartmouth?

goz,

@marquisdegeek I didn't know there was an apostrophe.

I'm updating my laptop to Windows 11.

What's the worst that can happen?

#windows #win11 #ITooLikeToLiveDangerously

goz,

@sirber Tired of the nagging. 🤣

goz,

@analogfusion @sirber That's a clever hack! My laptop is the only machine I have that supports Win11. I'm a little salty my 5 1/2 year old gaming PC doesn't make the cut.

It's a Gen7 i7 with 32GB of RAM, I have no need to upgrade.

goz,

@analogfusion @sirber I'll probably start dual booting my desktop soon, and leave Windows on it only for gaming.

Added Starship Enterprise location highlights to LRS and Galaxy Record display on "Super #StarTrek" for the #C64. A few other nice improvements too, inc. "Days Left" on SRS summary data. Will update #CBMPET version very soon.

goz,

@electron_greg Awesome, I can't wait to check it out!

oh man, someone should make a federated revival of Path. that is what i wish social media turned into. apps where the goal is to support small circles of friends, or make small circles of friends. not this 'global town square' stuff.

goz,

@msprout @chris_hayes They tried to solve social media’s biggest problem: It doesn’t scale. Once you are following >100 users, it basically overwhelms you.

Is there a way of watching #Twitch on a Roku tv? That an idiot could do?

goz,

@Jyoti @RebekahWSD

If you had installed the Twitch.TV app years ago you would still have access to it. So, step 1, get a Time Machine. 😎

I think the only way now is to use Chromecast or Airplay, depending on what tech you use.

Will this be Mastodon's VHS or Betamax moment?

I haven't tested Bluesky but I can say that if Mastodon wants to stay competitive (and I hope it does), it needs to address SEARCH & SURFACING fast.

The first open-protocol network that enables news and fast breaking events to surface easily and with functional search will win the market. You'll see journos, sports, etc. migrate to the platform that gives them that visibility.

There is a window of opportunity here but it doesn't stay open long.

goz,

@ethanschoonover @isaaccp @nix The Graze add-on/extension fixes this issue, but that's yet another thing users would need to install.

That doesn't stop me from recommending it and https://elk.zone

I can’t be the only one who really likes the look of 80s space special effects, can I?

In which I blog about 'Fucking Ryan', this fucking original character that kept fucking inserting himself in everything I fucking wrote for a while.

goz,

@bloodwrites TFW you see your first name with F$%^ing in front of it and you don't know if it's being used in an angry or sexual way. 🤣🤣

goz,

@bloodwrites LOL, no worries! I hated my name growing up so I'm glad it's getting some love nowadays.

Plus, I have something to talk to Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling about if I ever meet them.
