I went to Seattle for #vcfpnw last weekend and it was pretty great! A thread of pictures (read the alt text for extra commentary detail, btw!), starting with a visit to the Interim Computer Museum

The next day I took a break from the VCF show and visited the Connections Museum. What a place!! I’ve watched their YouTube channel for a while.

I also went to Ada’s Technical Books, Pink Gorilla Games, and drove around some neighborhoods with ridiculously pretty views (it was sunny with clear skies the whole time I was there, BTW)

I then went up to Snoqualmie Falls, which was also ridiculously pretty. If it looks familiar, it’s the site of the fictional Great Northern Hotel from Twin Peaks

I then went back the the VCF event and got up to some Unix shenanigans on @adriansdigitalbasement.com’s Plexus P/20 and after the show watched a Commodore SX-64 get worked on in the hotel lobby.

The next morning on the way to the airport I stopped at Re-PC’s Kent location. They had a lot of great stuff, old and new! Prices a bit high but relatively fair.

And one more very nice view: from the train platform on the way to the airport. What a great trip! I hope to visit again!

Dimming the screen for the screen saver on #PicoIDE was boring so I added flying toasters as an option. Sprites borrowed from the PicoPOST project

There’s only one #PicoIDE in this computer… I got dual device support working this weekend! That means everyone who backed PicoIDE on Crowd Supply will be getting a bit of a bonus when they finally get theirs! I’ll be releasing a campaign update soon with the latest status on manufacturing.
