  I tried to build a mechanical scanning TV using an old LP and a neon bulb (LEDs were too expensive) when I was wee. Here’s how i might try it if i was going to give it a go today. https://youtu.be/41b8fw3_wP8?is=-kGSwaSjWfgW8To-

  Remember kids: if you can’t afford a KIM-1 you can always use a KIM-1 emulator. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/virtualkim-6502-emulator/id1548356829

  The Retro Computer app has a widget that shows up on my car’s CarPlay-connected screen. I mean, yeah, I like it. It’s super nerdy. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/retro-computers/id6763369439

  A reminder - if you bought Pocket Universe (even ten years ago) - your purchase should have unlocked all the features in the new version permanently. If not, please let me know. But $3 for ten years of updates is pretty good value I would have thought.

  Only a little bit bonkers. The Virtual KIM iPhone app now comes with a companion app that now includes contemporary games. At least one of which runs on a 6502 emulator ON THE WATCH. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/virtualkim-6502-emulator/id1548356829

  Great idea - replace the original video IC in a retro computer with a Pico-based replacement that also does HDMI. Here’s one for Texas Instruments’ TI99/4A quirky computer that also works in the Memotech MTX512 quirky computer. https://lectronz.com/products/pico9918pro

  By popular demand, the Motorola 680x0 family gets full details in the free CPU reference app “opcodes”. You nerds. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/opcodes/id6760205834

  You _could_ make a machine with all the world’s knowledge in it, or you could just use an LLM and it will make it all up on the fly. #dontpanic

  It’s new and improved! Added a new PDP-11 tutorial, more “historical documents”, and a list of real world places to see a real PDP (or log into one). https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dec-opcodes/id6760246055

  I don’t really care about Liquid Glass. What I care about is when I take a photo it vanished for ages before eventually appearing in the Photos app.

  Interesting times.

  Hey have you ever wondered what would happen if you made a mad old racist lunatic into the king of the world? Well wonder no more.

  Update for “Opcodes” app is out! I fixed some missing 68000 instructions, improved the view on the iPad, and now you can paste in a string of hex digits to disassemble them in the scratchpad. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/opcodes/id6760205834

  The DEC Opcodes app just got a nice update. Learn how to write low-level code on mini and mainframe computers; now with PDP-1 and PDP-8 programming tutorials. Especially useful if you have a PiDP-1 or PiDP-8! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dec-opcodes/id6760246055

  Virtual KIM also got an update. Improved 6502 lessons and a new ROM that might look familiar. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/virtualkim-6502-emulator/id1548356829

  Good morning from a country led by genocidal war criminals. But also one without universal healthcare, if that helps narrow it down.

  The users who hate the user interface of Pocket Universe 2 *really* hate it (in a non-specific way) so I’ve spent a lot of time just simplifying and de-fancy-fying in the hope that will help. Feel free to try the TestFlight and leave feedback (especially if you are German, French, Italian or Spanish!) https://testflight.apple.com/join/lQultGX3
