    Anyone know the *exact* dimensions of an activision cart label? I want to have a go at making my own labels.

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      I normally go 2.7" x 4.3" and it fits nicely.

    Wondering if my memory's playing tricks on me. Always thought I'd seen SW in '79 when it was being rerun at local cinema - now thinking it may well have been '77.

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      Star Wars kept playing for a long time in many theatres so it very well could have been 79.

    To improve the "ebay bucks" experience, Basing our decision on user feedback, we have decided to remove the 1% on everyday purchases.  Now you will only earn them on our exciting limited time offers.

      Shawn

      So users said they would prefer not to get 1 percent on all purchases? Ya right.

    Just sent my new Activision 5200 cartridge board off for prototyping (open this if you want to see it)!  Feels good to finally be working on hardware again.

      I assume there is a specific reason for making a pcb that is fit for this style of shell? Did someone come into a pile of NOS shells? Reprinting the mold for some reason?

    Been very sick for 3 days now, might be COVID :(

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      If this is the kinda crap that makes you feel more important and is how you want to present yourself, have at it. I sure hope you don't have Covid-19. As for the insults you sent my way? If that makes you feel better about yourself and your situation you are welcome to keep it up. I'm a big girl and I'll be ok.

      There is no "might" be Covid-19. You have it or your don't. Get tested instead

      of posting status updates to draw attention to yourself on such an awful topic.

      I'm actually reporting your status update to the administration as well. Too many

      folks have had their lives ruined or extinguished by this disease. It's not a topic

      taken lightly and I really hope you don't have this terrible illness.

    I'm only now realizing that I started the LadyLady 7800 demo over 2 years ago... doesn't feel like it's been that long at all. I hope that I can finish it this year then.

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      Oh, I was thinking more along the lines of any actual gameplay perhaps?

      All I ever saw of your demo was a title screen. Did you share more than that since then?

    I think Amazon Returns are the biggest pain in the ass there is.  Details are missing and wrong, your account never will show a plus balance, it uses your refund for Prime without telling you, Clicking on it will Always say wait 7 days and it will show up in your back account or credit card when in fact it was already applied to orders as if it were reward points...And to top it all off I had to ReOrder the part at a higher price because a replacement was never offered (when That was what I asked for)...**End of rant**

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      I've only had to do 2 returns with Amazon ever and both where painless and the money went directly back on my Visa without any issues.

    I wish my 1902a monitor had worked.

      At least it was dead in the USA and you didn't ship it back to Korea to find it DOA after hauling it across the world, I guess?

    WandaVision is giving The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt a run for its ranking in weirdest TV show.

    1. Shawn

      Shawn

      Ya but Kimmy Schmit is a masterpiece compared to the stinking pile that Wandavision is. I forced myself through the first 2 episodes hoping for anything that might be even remotely entertaining and there was none to be found. I was excited for this show too. Overall grade from what I watched? F-

    Hello everyone. My name's Keon. Probably people don't remember when I was in this community back in 2004, and I created a new account only to continue where I was before when I left. Now I have a small YouTube channel and I think I found the way to share my experience with Atari.

      What was your old username? You can probably recover it with the help from a Moderator. This happens from time to time when an older user comes back after many years away.

    Packing things up to prepare to move back to Korea after 2.5 years of living in SoCal. I'm leaving unpacked the bare minimum I need to finish my projects(my Apple //e, PET, VIC-20, and C128). Quite shocking how much crap I managed to amass in 2 years, in a somewhat bad way.

     

    I tried to get rid of a lot of stuff I had like my non working TRS-80 Model 100, Commodore 1902a monitor, and Compaq LTE 5250, but sadly no one's taking it so I'm throwing out the 1902a and keeping the laptops for future use since they're small.

     

    Meanwhile, although it's quite big and heavy, I'm keeping my parts 1541 drive for a sleeper PC build, or an RPi project. It's got an unpopulated motherboard and a broken drive mechanism so it's useless but it's in pretty great shape and looks like it might fit a Nano ATX motherboard and power supply inside of it.

     

    Anyways, farewell, United States of America.

    "VCS EXCLUSIVE! ....it's also on Steam." Did I somehow miss the word "exclusive" changing in the dictionary?
