This dude goes by Modded Marimba and plays vg music with an electric marimba going through guitar effects and a looper pedal. Amazing stuff.

Since you near at the Palmer events center , I would say decent BBQ is across the street at Terry Blacks BBQ, in that area Maudie’s Tex-Mex or a bit closer Chuy’s TexMex for that Creamy Jalapeño, for breakfast tacos Nixta Taqueria or Grannies Tacos, Amy’s for ice cream .. too many places

We are back! #C64 www.commodore.net The first official Commodore 64 in over 30 years is here - a faithful recreation of the original motherboard on FPGA hardware. HDMI, WiFi, USB, but compatible with every existing cartridge and peripheral. Not an emulator - a recreation. Same price as my first $299

A while back I replaced the capacitors in my old Sega #gamegear. The system came alive with sound and control but the LCD was dead. I finally replaced the screen with a modern IPS made specifically for this system thanks to Retrosix out of the U.K. #retrogaming #retrogame

It’s just procrastinating , really… just playing some chill minesweeper in the background, then it’s like “oh crap.. I better do these file transfers for real before the user gets to this 100%” 😆
