  1. It's a sad day today, I was diagnosed with Rhinotillexomania. It's a common man disease so fail if you have to do a google search.

      Super Glue... The cure western medicine doesn't want you to know!

      Does that mean analtellexomania is...?

  2. That moment when a PLCC extracts smoothly and smartly.

    1. Flojomojo

      Flojomojo

      I love it when a plan comes together.

    2. CaptainBreakout

      CaptainBreakout

      Like hearing the clink of throwing a ringer.

  3. Had a substantial offer on my Apple II collection. Almost enough to make me reconsider not keeping it.

  4. SD Express - new and backward compatible standard featuring up to 128TB capacity!!

    1. Skippy B. Coyote

      Skippy B. Coyote

      Definitely a product I'm hoping comes to market. The specs are pretty mind blowing and I'd like to go back to larger and more durable standard size SD cards.

      Keatah

      I, too, prefer the SD format. MicroSD is a little small for repeated handling.

    3. Flojomojo

      Flojomojo

      SD for swapping things around -- especially if it sticks out

       

      microSD for set it and forget it -- especially if it fits inside

  5. Play my bass so hard California falls into the Pacific.

      GoldLeader

      Maybe you should join the band SUNN O)))

    2. DZ-Jay

      DZ-Jay

      Maybe you should ease up on the Amp... How about bringing it back down a notch to, say, 10?

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      SUNN 0))) Amps can Cause Earthquakes!!!

  6. Trying to get through Ready Player One.

      I haven't seen the movie yet, but my nephews are familiar with it, and last night, they wanted me to show them the Easter egg in "Adventure." I was only too happy to oblige. :)

    2. Eltigro

      Eltigro

      At the National Videogame Museum in Frisco, they have a little corner devoted to Adventure and the Easter Egg with an Atari with Adventure set up and a sign telling you the steps to find it.

    3. Keatah

      Keatah

      The movie. I could not finish the book.

       

      It is a bit much, the action is not any different than an ADD enhanced superhero movie. A lot of things going on and no breaks to let you absorb it all.

  7. Enjoying my daily mushroom & orange juice smoothie. Going to be 100F today through Saturday!

    1. Phantom_of_Krankor

      Phantom_of_Krankor

      I’m intrigued by the combination. May I ask what your recipe is?

    2. cybercylon

      cybercylon

      Ugh. Tons of yard work. Guess better do it early morning or evening. In between, maybe I will enjoy some taco smoothies.

    3. Keatah

      Keatah

      Recipe is simple. Mix whatever ratio of orange juice and mushrooms tastes good. First one I made I pulled the shrooms from a pizza we had for breakfast.

  8. Still trying to get wife to sign up at AA.

    1. Keatah

      Keatah

      She has a PC with emulators on them. One I built. But she ain't into it like I am. It's a way to play the occasional game.

    2. BassGuitari

      BassGuitari

      She rocks a Model II, doesn't she? We could use more of that around here! :D

    3. Keatah

      Keatah

      Still has one left.

  9. Enjoying a lazy lackadaisical day. Updating some emulators, waiting for the storm to get here. Stuffing myself with noodles.

  10. Wife bought home a box of Chronodots. Sure I will find some use for them. Specs say remarkable accuracy of less than 1 minute drift a year. That's like 3 or 4 ppm isn't it?

    1. CPUWIZ

      CPUWIZ

      Why did I read condoms?

      Stratum-2 NTP servers?

  11. NASA Mars rover got wiped out by the dust storm. Be cool if there was a VCS game based around this.

    1. jd_1138

      jd_1138

      In the game, you'd have to steer the rover around dust storms and pick up and drop off science experiments before they expire.

    2. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      For real life, I Love thinking about the possibility of visiting Mars (and the scientific advances)...but for video games and old movies, I like it when we fight the Martians ;)

      retrorussell

      STARFLIGHT for the Genesis is a bit similar.

  12. Dealing with a full-on White Castle blowout!

      So is that why they call them sliders? They slide from one end of your digestive system to the other.

  13. I sent the "atari vcs" Register tapes to my psychology friend and got quite the analysis on why they do what they do. 1 thing for sure is it puts a bad name on atari. Like who wants to fart around what that stuff?

    1. MrMaddog

      MrMaddog

      Listening to it right now, it's like that scene from Rise Of The Nuttters.

  14. The more I read about the atari "vcs" the more I'm convinced it's gonna flop.

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      I've only read 393 pages of comments...Until I read 400 or more pages I don't think I can make an informed decision.

    2. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      I would agree, except that I was already close to 100% convinced that it would flop, so it would be hard at this point to feel "more convinced."

    3. Csonicgo

      Csonicgo

      At least we'll get some cool shells right?

  15. I was about to say the WHO just invented a new disease, excessive gaming!

    1. Jess Ragan

      Jess Ragan

      Why should I care? Why... should I care...?

    2. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Just saw that!

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Dear WHO....FU! No such thing as "Gaming Disorder", if you'd simply said an addictive personality with a bent toward video games, I might have let you slide. It's just like drinking and sex,...I can stop anytime I want but choose not to ;)

  16. There is another system.

    1. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      Wow, I didn't even know it had been released on Blu-ray, and in widescreen!

       

      (We're talking about the classic "Colossus: The Forbin Project," by the way.)

    2. DZ-Jay

      DZ-Jay

      I have it on an imported DVD. Apparently it was never released on retail, only for rent. I really like that movie. I also read the book, which is the same, but with a lot more sex. Hehehe

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      So the book is better.

  17. Intel's new chips run at 5GHz with stock/minimal cooling!

      atarian63

      intel.. yawn

      Isn't it strange that only 50 years ago, stuff like this never existed, especially when you think about how long humans have been on earth?

  18. Playing text-based Lunar Lander on the TRS-80 Model II through emulation. I don't think the hi-res graphics board is supported yet.

  19. Lunar Lander for the TRS-80 Model II? How cool!

      Taco Bell for dinner?

    2. Eltigro

      Eltigro

      I've had tacos for three straight days.

  22. Atari VCS and Atari SA are unstoppable. Not the community, not the taco thread, can stop it. The pre-orders keep rolling in!

    1. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      Don't get too excited about the total. Now they have to DELIVER, which is the hard part.

  23. AtariVCS is on a roll. Anyone not getting in early is a fool!

      Ahh, satire

    2. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      I have a feeling it will be more like "anyone getting in early is going to get rolled."

  24. This looks super awesome. Can't wait to play!

  25. Why are fat people so strong?

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Is it just me or is this a bit of a depressing status update?
