When no one wants to broadcast on it, it will point at something interesting, like a computer demo, a 3D printer, or a breakfast taco. You never know! https://www.ustream.tv/channel/u45p8uc7YSS I picked Ustream because the free trial seems better than freeconferencecall.com or Zoom. why not use youtube? ustream is full of ads and garbage clients Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need chat along with video if I recall you can use Zoom for free for up to 50 users. It does in chat video calling with a chat window for questions. If you want to stream your desktop then there are other apps but they are all $$$ like WebEx, Ring Central, etc. you are free to use my chat app on my site.

I like Zoom and it has chat and screen sharing. It turns out it only costs $15 for a one month plan. The free one cuts off every 40 minutes.

+bcombee Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Just noticed this topic... since i live here in Austin, I definitely want to come to some of the event. I've not done much TI99-4/A hacking, but I think I do still have a system and some carts in my storage. I was very impressed with the display of recent TI work I saw at the Vintage Computer Fest SE in Atlanta a few months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be happy to share the knowledge of whatever aspect of 4A-ness you want. Feel free to bring your system to work with, there will be plenty of space in the classroom. 3 minutes ago, hloberg said: welcome. glad to have you attend. we'll be doing several hardware projects (mine is replacing a bad I/O chip).

+FarmerPotato Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 Hackerspace work night report: We tried out Zoom at the Hackerspace. Amanda installed the Zoom app on a Galaxy 10 phone. That's our camera/mic. Using wifi and DC power. The picture was good in the classroom lighting. Sound was ok. I think I can scrounge up a Bluetooth headset. There will be a tripod for the camera. With Zoom, you can do screen sharing, or yield the sharing privilege to others. To join in with Zoom (in August!), use the meeting ID https://zoom.us/j/7707370625 The projector in the classroom is history. There is a projector in the lounge, but it's set up for playing video games from the couch. The classroom has a 60" LCD with all the inputs (RF,VGA,HDMI,Composite) and another 37" LCD. There are two huge whiteboards on one wall. Danny was doing air conditioning maintenance last night. So it should be running at tip top. We also have big-ass fans (not actually those ones) A couple Hackerspace members expressed interest in attending. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiffster Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I'm planning on attending with a TI-99/4A IRATA.Online setup. I may do a presentation but would definitely like for folks to get some hands-on time with the system. Jeff.

spiffster Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 By the way, I'll also be at CGF next weekend, in a booth demonstrating IRATA.Online on a TI-99/4A, Atari 800XL, and ZX Spectrum clone. If you happen to be there, stop by and say Hi! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

globeron Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 On 7/7/2019 at 12:25 AM, hloberg said: you know, I been toyed on adding the MSX1 to the TI-99 variants emulation list. It had the same video chip as the TI-99 line, the sound chip was very similar to TI sound chip but had a z80 processor (like the Colecovision). As for the z80, it's rumored that the z80 was once considered for the ti99 before they decided to shoehorn the 9900. another thing, the BASIC is very much like XB including the use of CALL commands. what ya think, add it to the DVD? Also: I want to be sure I added everything MESS/MAME TI-wise. I have MESS TI-99/4a, TI-99/EV (with 80 column), Gramkraker, P-Card, Geneve with HD, Tomy Tutor MAME TI99/4 (tape), TI-99/8(Hexbus) Games, apps, manuals, books working on Plato I don't know, is MBX emulated? Anything I missed and can add? On YouTube my channel TI99 VIDEOS has many videos related to emulating the TI ranging from MAME to Classic99 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 What are the anticipated hours of this event? Will Friday attendance be lighter than Saturday? I imagine I'll just go for one day since it is local, but I'm trying to figure out the best day to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I will be hanging out with the CollectorVision peeps at GameOn Expo on Friday, then head to 99/4ATX to hang out Saturday afternoon and Sunday. Looking forward to meeting some AA folk who do not make it to the Faire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hours are Fri from setup at 11am to 9pm though the classroom is open as long as there is a member there. A lot of displays will be there from Friday morning and the activities will be casual: talking, trying software, repairs, tutorials on any topic that comes up. Saturday would be the day if you picked just one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 If the stars align I'll toss the Heatwave system and a few other things into my car Saturday morning and head to Austin for a few hours. I have to be back in Houston that same evening, so the visit will depend on how well (or not) things go at work next week & Friday in particular. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish I could have attended, but with my daughter's wedding around the corner, it would have been rather difficult. Hopefully next year if there is another one....

+Ksarul Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Have much fun--and I wish I was there now too--but the folks installing the new windows in my house won't be done with all of the final clean-up work for a few days yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
