I #3dprinted a new case for an old #atari7800 i bought on ebay with a boken case for cheap. I thought it came out super nice with the two color filament using my #bambulabs #3dprinter. I used this #atariage link as a model.

Da lernt man im #Atariage Forum was über eine tote Maus 🤔
Hab nicht genau verstanden, ob sie evtl. #FoodFight gehacked und bei einer Show verteilt haben, aber zumindest wenn ich sie mir auf Youtube anschaue(!) ist die Musik von #deadmau5 cool 😉

I think there's a book to be written on the afterlife of #Atari based on the goldmine that is the #AtariAge forum.
The world will be a poorer place if the database underlying that forum is irretrievably lost. It's such a hodgepodge of nuggets of tribal knowledge. Several entire "Missing Manual"s-worth of valuable information on hardware, emulators, programming languages old and new and much more.
Try the discussion thread on the release of the Action! programming language source code, as just one example of the rich lore shared by the Atari retrocomputing community: https://forums.atariage.com/topic/217770-action-source-code/

I'm really enjoying #FastBasic on #atari8bit! It feels much more modern* than other languages on the platform, and the native IDE booting from BW-DOS has just enough utility to make it viable to write code on an Atari 800 or equivalent. (I miss vi's 'join' and a search and replace utility, but the edit/save/run cycle feels very natural.)
FastBasic's author is active on #AtariAge, and has also contributed to the recent 1.5 release of BW-DOS, in conjunction with Jiří Bernášek, the original author of BW-DOS.
It's extraordinary; the #retrocomputing scene is more lively and robust than ever, between new hardware add-ons and new programming languages.
- Well, 1970s structured programming modern; in FastBasic, there's no scoping of variables, nor functions that return values, nor hand-holding error messages. Lots of great utility in the several looping constructs and 16-bit DPOKE and DPEEK, and the recent addition of #FujiNet commands is intriguing, on top of the existing #XIO support.

Big shout out to #BeebleBrox over on #AtariAge for some kind and helpful advice on where to go next with my gorgeous #Atari #130XE with dead console keys.
Thanks to their guidance, I was able to identify my keyboard type and confidently open it up to examine the Mylar membrane. At first glance it looked pristine, but on closer visual inspection and doing continuity checks with a multimeter, I found a break - which someone else had thoughtfully highlighted for me!
I've ordered a new membrane from #Retrohax_de, which seems to be the same https://retronics.eu membrane as sold by https://retrolemon.co.uk.
(The membrane available from https://www.retrofuzion.com appears to be for the rubber dome version, comparing it with the other variant from retrolemon, though they don't say.)
I'd never have figured all this out without the kindness of strangers. Thank you, Beeblebrox. And the mystery person who had inspected this membrane before and highlighted the break!
