Retro computing and gaming goodness on YouTube since 2019.
Lots of wonderful talks at @kawaiicon.bsky.social - everything from Enigma machines right up to AI LLM MCP vulns. Very glad that NZ's premiere security con is back after a few years break!

If you're a fan of the movie Sneakers, the late Robert Redford (RIP) or just geeky things, you can ssh into [email protected] and watch the movie in glorious 24-bit colour ANSI :) Enjoy!

I just spent far too much money on this thing. The Intel Inboard was a way to upgrade your PC or XT to have a 386 CPU. It gave you the opportunity to run 32-bit software despite having an 8-bit bus. I want to run extended memory apps, this is /apparently/ the only way!

Did you now that IBM were heavily involved in Nazi Germany? If you didn't, my next documentary, out tomorrow is going to blow your mind! Check it out: youtu.be/kII17V1kwAA

This VHS tape sized subnotebook from 1997 was really innovative for its time; but was it any good? Let's look at the Toshiba Libretto 100CT! youtu.be/uAlhPwcHbdo?...

And since I'm new here, I'll introduce myself to #retrocomputing too, with my latest YouTube video, which covers Windows 3.0 on a real 286 PC and an in-place upgrade to Windows 3.1
