Winner of Time Magazine "Person of the Year" 2006 and will never get tired of that joke.
I talk about #retrocomputing a lot. I also do a lot of #gardening and occasionally make #bread and #beer. I have been a Unix #sysadmin for about 30 years but I think I'll be OK.
I live in #Melbourne, #Australia and sometimes tell jokes on stages around here. I co-host a #StarTrek podcast with @ThePingMachine

Dear Future Mike, next time you get "this sounds like it came out of an LLM" vibes from someone's sign-up request, trust your feelings and save yourself some time.
Great, another AI bullshit video from Adrian Black. The whole point of watching his shit for me was that he knew what he was talking about. Oh well.
I don't give a shit about phone plugs, give me a fucking global standard for vacuum cleaner attachments.
I never got around to making a proper post about my new Amiga power supply build, but I want to do another revision of the case so maybe in a month or so I'll take some good pics.
Anyway, here's just a quick shot of it next to my old one in a generic project box, which I liked the aesthetics of, but it got a bit warmer than I really liked due to lack of ventilation.
Internally it's just a Mean Well RT-50B which matches the requirements nicely. The "final" one I'd like to have would incorporate an external LED or maybe an illuminated switch, and if I can squeeze a charge-only USB port on there, that'd be nice.
