I'm trying @Waterfox@mastodon.social as browser from while, indeed is lighter as resources and the scrolling is, by default, a lot of smoother than other forks of Firefox I tried. Nice that includes also an adblock, that I pair with another privacy extension. The only minus, it lacks of .deb packages, and I have to resort on flatpacks. Well nothing is perfect, I guess. #foss #firefox #waterfox #browser

The new Starfox 2 seems to me mostly (or just?) a remaster of Starfox 64, with the identical gameplay of the predecessor. I think is more for those who have a Switch 2, but have not the N64 game and doesn&#39;t go for emulation. I found more interesting the Airwing level in Starfox Adventures in comparison, it was a different level. https://invidious.tiekoetter.com/watch?v=vylA-5Jv4ag #starfox #nintendo #nintendoswitch2 #consolle #videogame #videogames #switch2

The C128 VDC is a funny thing. Is a commodore clone of a CGA pc card, and has its own internal memory, that also the main machine &quot;doesn&#39;t see&quot; and is served only by the VDC chip itself. This memory can also be expanded on any C128 with appropriate kit. With the max expansion it can reach some crazy resolution, up to 800x600 monocrome in some demo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X95wK7FS5NY #c128 #commodore #retrocomputing #retrogaming

I wonder if there are demos for C128 that use the build-in Z80 processor, as main or coprocessor. There are some good stuff for the VDC, but I didn&#39;t found nothing yet for the Zilog. I think nobody really tried to use it, or maybe is so rare that I didn&#39;t got the chance to find one. #c128 #commodore #retrocomputing
