80s rock on Spotify tonight with the intention of doing some coding, instead I turned off the laptop and had a bop instead
This is where my love of real ales started, also £3.75 in Home Bargains at the moment 😆

Sunday! More Spectrum games! Streaming!
I'm still powering through the Top ZX Spectrum Games (tm) and I've got a LOT to go through. Starting around midday or so and continuing until I'm tired.

Why yes, I have access to such a device. 🙄 Here's a better idea: invite me into your high security facility for a checkup!

Just checking to see if the greatest game of the 21st century (Sub-blitz by @jimblimey@twitter.com) will run on my SAM Coupé via speccy emulation. Yes, it does.
I'm still rubbish at the game, though...

Some very basic #WIP movement/shooting/collecting stuff this evening. It's pretty fun so far I think! :D
Time for bed now though...

Here's an old article (german language) from 2013 where I write about me building a DIY tape interface for the Sharp Pocket PC 14xx and 12xx series. This was the time when I started to tinker with electronics. (Article Link: https://commfud.ufud.org/Archive/date/2013/02)
The schematic (courtesy of M. Nosswitz) can still be found at the Pocket Computer Museum (http://pocket.free.fr/), but I add it here for the sake of completeness.
