    By the way, even though the MK-90 is quite rare, we have quite an active community around it in the CIS, for example, one developer wrote a program that can convert videos for playback on the MK-90. In fact, it turns a video into a BASIC program for recording on a cartridge, which can be inserted into the MK-90 and launched like regular software. Only this will require special equipment for flashing MK-90 cartridges, but if you are interested, there are examples of video playback from the MK-90 on UA-cam, there are some with Bad Apple, and a demo with short clips. Flappy Bird and the Dinosaur game from Google Chrome, the same one that starts when the Internet is disconnected, were also ported to the MK-90.

    I used to repair these typewriters. Backing the 80's. The Technician's all used to call them Junkies. If you could type fast, you would hate this machine. It can't keep up with you the typist. Most of the adjustments are forming things. That sucks. If you were to accidently. drop it? it is over, throw way trash.

    The weird power supply cable (22:30) goes into the back of the PSU block in the arm, and then plugs into the UPS output.

    haha, i had these as a kid. they were TERRIBLE, but i think we had fun running around. I think the headset self destructed after a while (probably broke the little reflector) but i kept the gun for a long time because i thought it was cool :)

    I have that exact same motherboard. First time I powered it up, the 12V tantalum blew. I replaced it with a 10uF ceramic MLCC. Next time I powered it up, the -12V tantalum blew. :) So it's better to preventatively replace both of those before powering up, it's easy and quick. The 5V caps usually don't fail on those motherboards.

    Could be used to mechanically test the drive functions as well The lack of termination resistors may be why GW was complaining about track 0, the pin wasn’t pulled up high enough and/or logic level

    Yes there are Battlezone possibilities. •Vectrex + ROM only, via James Watt's (Clockwork Robot) "Stramash Zone". Stramash Zone is a great game conversion but is still CPU bound with the processing limitations of the Vectrex •Vectrex + VecFever cart + Atari Arcade ROM. Play much better using the processing power of the VecFever cart along with the Vectrex CPU. Since it's using the Atari arcade ROM closer to the original game play. •Vectrex + PiTrex cart + Atari Arcade ROM. Plays much better using the processing power of the PiTrex cart and none of the Vectrex CPU. Since it's using the Atari arcade ROM closer to the original game play.

    heck i used cura slicer and didnt do the updates on the mosfets my printer was just 3d print upgraded so much and was just load filiment and go aside from putting more painters tape on wen needed and use alcohol on it .

    i had an a8 and that thing with several tweaks was able to print at a .5 mm resolution on the clearance test print i did though that was before i borked several things on it . the upgrades i did was a full surround cooler for the nozzle x and y belt tensioning prints and gantry bracing well . i also went through and made sure all the steppers were oiled up as well . after the upgrades i could have a conversation around it with out having to raise my voice

    This was fun. Currently working on 'silencing' my server too, only with bequiet silent wings fans. I've add 3 more fans over the stock for the case, and am about to explicitly cool two of the six hard-disks with two more, having relocated the two drives to the 5.25 inch bays. (They all fit into the 3.5 in drive bays, but over the summer, a couple of the disks went over 40 degrees C, which while still in specification, is too warm for me! Want the drives to always be below 40.) Using a PWM generator to control the fans that are cooling the disks (rather than the mobo) - at the moment just the two fans bolted to the hard-disks, but will migrate the 3 existing stock fans (which are noisy, and not PWM) over to my PWM system when I've bought three more bequiet fans. Bodging it hard, could really do with a 3D printer and the time to figure all out. Impressed with the designing in python.

    I know late to the party, but if you dont put some blanks or drives in the open slots, you will not get an accurate noise or temp floor. Deltas on sound/temp change might be close but might also be way off. I noticed this with R730XDs with open drive slots drive temps climb and cpu temps drop.

    UTF-8 is a superset of 7-bit ASCII, so it makes sense that it'd work up until people started using higher unicode characters.

    I think the best save formatting would be something like (game-)platform-userid, it leaves enough options for future expansion, but I don't know if usernumbers are too long for DOS

    • @techtangentslive
      @techtangentslive 5 місяців тому

      The saves are a feature of zork directly. Since this is real hardware I'm not making savestates or anything else that would be interchangeable with other games or platforms.
