  1. After coming back from #VCFEast2026 I felt a little bad about neglecting my #IBM5150 restoration project. So I spent some time buying some replacement chips. Hopefully I’ll be able to a diagnostic ROM running to help locate the bad RAM in bank 0.

  3. Saving throw against buying another cheap and likely broken CRT was successful.

    I need to finish fixing two other ones already in my possession before I get new-to-me ones. I just sold 3 of them this weekend so I'd rather not have too many again as I will be moving later this year.

    Note: I was offered a free working VGA monitor at #vcfEast2026 (thank you @mac84tv) but had to decline for the same reason.

  4. Who has two thumbs and picked up a repairable/working Fluke 27/FM True RMS multimeter from the VCF East free pile?

  6. #vcfeast2026 abruptly cut short by local SWAT due to a bomb threat. I guess someone was mad for not winning the raffle...

  10. Some little shite called in a bomb threat to VCF East and the place got cleared by armed police

    Camp Evans is fully evacuated and the bomb squad has been called in.

  12. #VCFEast2026 was a success for #FujiNet. Lots of people saw our diverse #retrocomputing platforms and are starting to understand that we want to bring a useful network adapter to their favorite #atari8bit #Apple2 #TRS80CoCo #MSDOS and more systems.

  14. Very excited to be heading to #vcfeast2026 tomorrow. Still wanting to add some polish to my booth content, but feeling good about the overall state of the “public alpha” deck firmware.

  16. I know I missed #monochromemonday, but I wanted to crash that tag to show off my latest batch of #cyberdecks — sporting shiny new #monochrome epaper displays. I’ll be showing them off at #vcfeast2026 this weekend.

  18. eww eww The Whova conference app that VCF East is using for running the event has mined my details (and who knows what else) from LinkedIn. Which I wasn't logged in to, and didn't give permission for.

    I'm assuming that it's Whova, as in "Whova [= hoover] up the metadata"

  26. @wec When it comes time to exhibit, we will skin the VM login screen in a Classical Computing Laboratory livery, and will exhibit this machine as IBM.

    That's right. IBM is going to #vcfeast2026. Well, "Classical Computing Laboratory at IBM Poughkeepsie, an IBM employee-driven living computer museum located on the IBM Poughkeepsie campus".
