Pinecone Computer

The MicroPython port to the Daisy/1 homebrew computer is coming along so nicely. Details soon.

It's @thesiliconsiren.bsky.social demonstrating @commodoreofficial.bsky.social'a newly announced... Commodore PET Mini! Play all your favorite PET games like Lemonade, Weather War, Dog Star Adventure, and State's Capitols. 🤭 #Retrogaming #retrogames #aprilfools

Introducing the Commodore Fallback. A full-featured Android handset to carry with you for those moments when you need a real phone, but all you've got is a Commodore Callback. It looks like a Pixel 6a and is just a powerful but NEVER MIND THAT! Yay, the future no one asked for. 🎉

Remember Packard Bell PCs? Yeah, I haven't processed that trauma yet, either. 🤮

I was a regular caller to WBBS for the CD-ROM libraries. Holy smokes! You guys. Yes. These days were as fun as they sound.

"a distinctively British approach to artificial intelligence" But "Max Headroom is American"? Oh, no, no, no, child.

DaisyBASIC gains a QuickBASIC style help system! With more neat stuff in DaisyOS 1.7.0 to come... (Hmm! What's up with the amber color?) #retrocomputer #retrocomputing #softwaredev #dev #programming #emulation

The irony that telnet.org doesn't have a telnet server running!

Did someone mention The Talking Heads?! ;)

I really could use just $10 so that my checking account doesn't overdraft 😅 PP is groovyswkr CA and Kofi are transmascdruid #mutualaid #TransSupportMA #DisabilitySupportMA #helpsky #fundsky #HelpFolksLive2026

Fines or even prison for leaking data is far from enough. Opaque tech firms trafficking personal data must be shut down. In a rising far-right world, unpunished corporate surveillance is the ultimate weapon to track, target & destroy anyone cast as an enemy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCBS...

Honey! You look fabulous! Have you had work done? 🤩 [whispers to Oric-1] We NEED the name of her plastic surgeon. 😲

People still building Amiga things with AMOS Professional in 2026: Rock on, you wild spirits. 💙😎✊🏻 And don’t forget those Wait VBLs! (If today’s gamedev brats even knew, eh?)

Don’t tell anyone, but I get goosebumps when John Ousterhout wipes his ass with “Uncle” Bob Martin. Code smell this, jackass. #indiedev #softwareengineering #creepyunclevibes

Edgar! 💙 Rusty Lemorande (screenplay writer) would likely love to hear from you, especially gen-z and millennials, if you appreciate "Electric Dreams". When I told him about Edgar plushies and memes, he was floored. His email is easily found. 😉

I've worked with watchdogs with longer periods than The Cave BBS's inactivity limit. 🤭 @benjedwards.com, can we please double the timeout please please please please? 🙏🏻 I have ADHD!

And Google. And Microsoft. And every other company full of people who have never read Wiley, Cooper, Raskin, Tesler, etc. Or did and ignored. This is a solved problem.

I look so much like an Apple II (because I 'borrowed' the Signetics 2513 character ROM!) But, I am so much cooler. 😎 #indiedev #systemsdev #retrocomputing #retrogaming #homebrew #maker #arduino

Submit Resume and Demo Disk to: Mr. Ian Hetherington c/o Psygnosis This is totally plastic bag and dodgy brand blank disk worthy! We'll see you at Boots, champ!

I’m happy old world Commodore disintegrated when it did. You’d like to think they’d be the exception to the modern big tech AI and political grotesqueries. Ok. Sure. And I’m having crab legs with Irving Gould tomorrow.

Oh! New BASIC proggies to munch on! 🥰

What's your favorite BASIC prompt? Ok READY ] > [K]

I 💙 Weird Barbie.

PSA —— If you are 100% anti-AI, and make that part of your personality, go on and unfollow now. 😊

Hey everyone. A breakup, and a sudden move has left me struggling hard while I try to clean everything up, find work in my new home, and survive. I need gas, basics, and food badly. Please consider donating or buying something that I make here: ko-fi.com/cherryfizz71

DaisyTerm now supports file transfer over XMODEM and YMODEM, since DaisyOS now supports SD cards!

Sure do 💙 your use of my A1200 photo from Wikipedia. 👍🏻😉 Thank you for your support! 🤭

The APPocalypse has begun.

LOOK AT MY HORSE! MY HORSE IS AMAZING! SWEET LEMONADE YES SWEET LEMONADE!

Happy National Coming Out Day. I kiss other girl computers.

Happy National Coming Out Day

Are You Being Served? reboot looking smashing so far.

AI is showing a lot of computer people that they made a mistake tying their identities up with their careers.

You hear this photo. I know you do.

Ruin a The Beatles song by changing the lyrics 🎶🎵 “Don’t you know it’s gonna be alt-right?” - Revolution

C128 version or GTFO. 💙

LinkedIn lets you label AI slop, you say? Yes. Microsoft provides the full pipeline: creation of slop, dissemination of said slop, and easy reporting. 🙄

ZAK! Eh, @davidbfox.com? My comfort game. 🥰

Nolan Bushnell visited our booth and signed a mini computer space. #prge #gaming

Which one of you stinky nerds in animal suits upset my dad? 😡

Still nicer than the Commodore Callback.

Hey, if I see what I think are two citizens with guns running toward me, I’m hauling ass and trying to run them over. That’s self defense and my life is more important. Take note, ICE.

A masterclass in shit execution of a tired trope. 👇🏻

Yes! A pocket synchrotron! 🤩 Jelly, @cern.bsky.social? 😋

The market sees a failed product or company. I see brilliance, history, and inspiration from quiet heroes who dare to dream differently.
