I'll be at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo today and tomorrow. (Oct 10-11)
Since I don't have a booth for myself, I'll be hanging out around the Interim Computer Museum exhibit. Come by and say "hi!" and check out some cool old computers.
The TJs ones are not that good. They are fine but lack the punch of the Old Dutch ones which taste just like the ones you can get in Canada. Haven't tried Wegmans since it's not out here. :-(
All dressed are OK to me but don't compare to the real tangy tomato ketchup chips.
Yes they do. Tomato powder.
Me too! I've only ever seen them in Canada, so I had no idea!
Oh yeah I tried those, they were quite meh compared to what you get in Canada. No tang to the TJ's ones.
I got this wonderful care package from some amazing folks in Wisconsin.
Yes, these are honest to goodness ketchup chips actually sold in the US! I am shocked!
Maybe these can make their way to Oregon stores? Hello "BIg-Chip" companies, are you listening?
It seems bonkers the CPU was released in 2021 and isn't even officially discontinued, and yet the GPU portion is already unsupported... Thanks AMD.
Rebooted my lab PC, and I got a pop-up when the GPU drivers tried to auto-update. Claims my AMD Ryzen 5600G integrated Radeon graphics aren't supported anymore? Has AMD given up on consumer graphics entirely? Either that or their drivers are track. Probably both...
Yaaaaas! This is great. My holder thing like yours is too big so I use it for screwdrivers and other tools. I need to find the smaller one like yours.
That looks handy!! I do like the drill bit type you rotate by hand it really clears it out well, but I'll have to get one of these too. Plus it won't roll away!
I'm SURE this will happen!
I had this happen for an RGB LED from my clock project, I didn't even bother to look when it pinged out of my tweezers. I'll probably live forever in the vacuum cleaner.
*SIGH* Even in all the clutter down here in the basement, I very rarely misplace things... But I have misplaced the cleaning drill bit for my Hakko desoldering iron. I should just order another one versus spending a bunch of time looking for it. It's small and probably rolled off my bench... :-(
HAHA! This one is a TRS-80 Model 4P
RIFAs don't typically make burning smell before the go ... but maybe this is a RIFA adjacent problem as the machine does work. :-)
Yeah it's a 4P! It appears to turn on and work normally too. Have not investigated yet. LOL!
Just going through my pile of projects and this note just makes me laugh.
Awesome. I say there is no age to which one should stop trying to learn!
HAHAH! I know they all will die after 10 years... and yes of course it has to be when you are sleeping.
