  1. I got the f-key line turned off (SCREEN 0,0) so things look better. I thought it might be fun to have the walk flip bits on the screen rather than just turning them on. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, N82 basic doesn't have the capacity to examine the screen. Hopefully I can figure out where the LCD controller is and PEEK at its RAM directly. #retrocomputing #modelt #basic

  6. I don't really know why but I love random walks. I wrote one in N82 basic on my PC-8201a. I should probably do something about the f-key line but I was just banging around.

  11. #Ford Considers Scrapping Electric Version of #F150 #PickupTruck
    Once hyped as a ‘smartphone that can tow,’ production of the money-losing #EV #pickup may be shut down for good
    #F150Lightning, once described by Ford as a modern #ModelT for its importance to the company, fell far short of expectations as American truck buyers skipped the electric version of the top-selling truck. Ford has racked up $13 billion in EV losses since 2023.

    The keyboard is let down by the tiny enter key which is right next to the raised ridge on the keyboard tray. I'm sure I would get used to it if I was banging away on the Psion every day. Still, the keyboard on the eMate is nicer and neither one can hold a candle to the best portable keyboard ever made. 😁 #retrocomputing #psion #newton #nec #modelt

  22. My landlord collects antique autos that were service vehicles. This is the car that was parked under our place and filling the kitchen with gas fumes. Apparently an original police and/or fire department vehicle, as you might be able to tell from some of the alternate custom design.

    This sucker is LOUD. Imagine a big car engine running without an enclosure and drop the pitch two octaves but keep it that loud, you have some kind of an idea what it's like to stand 20m away from it.

  23. Mistodon: on this day in 1908, the Ford Motor Company launched the #ModelT, the first widely affordable automobile, here drawn in #ANSIart by AdeptApril.

  24. There's a beautiful NEC PC-8500 for sale on eBay. This is the ultimate evolution of the PC-8201a which is up there on the list of bestest computers. It's out of my price range but it would be cool if someone here wanted to give it a home. If you're into early NEC, the Model T machines or just want Wordstar with nice keyboard, check this out. #NEC #ModelT #retrocomputing

  25. Because my bud Ben is porting it to every BASIC in sight, I spent half the night messing with ROG, my trs80 model 100 roguelike.

    Last looked at in 2016.... and it's in BASIC.... made by a Past Me who was cranky about the programming rules being preached at him by CS profs.

    "Don't write big projects in BASIC" turns out to be a pretty good rule, actually. 🤗

  26. Almost a year since the last #EpicRapBattlesOfHistory dropped, we finally get a new one.

    They're kicking off the new season of ERB's classic style of Nice Peter vs EpicLloyd playing Henry Ford and Karl Marx respectively.

    Nice Peter did a great job, but my goodness - EpicLloyd crushed it as Marx.

    You can check out the video on #YouTube here: youtube.com/watch?v=QjqjoehA7k

  27. How Much #Ford Can A Ford Line Worker Afford?
    #HenryFord raised employee wages to $5/day so they could afford a #ModelT
    Can Ford Workers Of Today Afford To Buy A Ford?
    Ford claims “average new hires will earn six-figure salaries by their 4th year.” That puts take-home pay at $73,820 annually, or $6,151 per mo. Average new #car payment today is $729 for new #cars and $528 for used. This theoretical six-figure earner can afford no more than $615.10 per month for their car.
