@PastaThief I've gone to #VCFMW for a few years. On the whole it tends to be very welcoming, with the caveat that many, if not most of us in the community are in the same asocial boat. Starting a conversation can be difficult, but what brings us all is a passion for this stuff (which can sometimes be a bit overwhelming). There are a few who need to demonstrate geek cred at any opportunity, but most people are happy to find *anyone* else to chat about their hobby with.

@tschak I'm your target (my platforms are TRS-80 CoCo II and DOS) and I've seen #FujiNet at many #VCFMW shows, which I travel to attend. Maybe it would help to know why I haven't adopted it?
First, I didn't know it supposed DOS and CoCo. Actually, I still don't. Neither are listed at https://fujinet.online/purchase/ . The CoCo link at https://fujinet.online/wiki/?p=Toplevel-Hardware is broken. I found https://fujinet.online/tandy-color-computer/ but it requires me to build a bunch of stuff myself, which I don't have time for right now. 1/

I picked up a brown $5 Macintosh IIsi at #VCFMW. It had some battery and capacitor leakage / corrosion. The electronics have been through the citric acid ultrasonic bath, so let's see how things have cleaned up and if we can get it to boot. Saturday noon eastern. #vintagemac https://youtube.com/live/blxlf4IyNyA?feature=share

Any #Pittsburgh folks going to Pittsburgh Gaming Expo? #PGX is 3-5 Oct (in roughly two weeks) at the #Monroeville Convention Center. We'll be doing what we did at #VCFMW but more #gaming-centric, and the new Bloop facility is only minutes away (not quite open yet, ask for a private tour maybe?).
Hoping for two panels from @inversephase and there will be lots of music and guest friends as well.
Get 10% off a prereg if you use code BLOOP2025. Sounds cool, right?
