The game is from 1987 and parodies the experience of moving house and getting all your paperwork jumbled up by inflexible and incapable bureaucrats. The goal of the game is to start at your new job, for which you moved to a different city and do your first work trip to Paris, France. But of course your banked messed up all the details…

Harvesting components for practice and for re-use from a broken mainboard. I am slowly getting better! This is probably a multi-layer board, so desoldering of through hole components is not THAT easy.

I am currently in a discussion about ID enforcement on social media sites. My gut says it’s a bad idea but I am missing good arguments. What are pros and cons about identification enforcement when registering at social media sites?#socialmedia #netzpolitik #privacy #anonymity

@foone @millihertz @nina_kali_nina @TechTangents has some old machines with manual shuttered 3.5“ drives. He can probably confirm. See 34:00 in this video:https://youtu.be/AR5i9BnJqlA

New video: The OneROM Versatile ROM EmulatorThe old home computers like the C64, PET and VIC20 use a lot of 24 pin ROM chips. Many of those are failing and are often replaced with EPROMs and adapter boards. The OneROM is a versatile replacement for EPROMs based on the RP2350 MCU. It allows for easy reprogramming, multiple ROM images and can replace up to three ROM chips in a single system. Oh, and it's open source!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRyUiEZUTSY
