Tomorrow (Oct 14) at 10:00 AM CDT, @actionretro.bsky.social and I celebrate Windows 10 going EOL. You will be missed. 🫡

Check back on Bluesky at that time (or have notifications on)!

Big shout-out to David (The 8-Bit Guy) for showing @actionretro.bsky.social and I around his new Time Rift Arcade!

It's awesome! I highly recommend going!

To whoever picked up our iMac from the free pile at vcfmidwest, we hope you make good use out of it! Don’t miss the free coupon we tucked away inside as well as some other hidden goodies 👀

Big shout-out to Sean / Action Retro, who not only makes fantastic YouTube videos, but also now offers the ultimate shirt for my regular spelunking expeditions to our local electronics recycler!

I had a Totally Normal encounter with @actionretro.bsky.social at #VCFMW. And got to meet a bunch of other great folks into retro and vintage computers! Can't wait until next year...
