I still have mine ๐
Are people still using Xbox Kinects for scanning? I've switched to Linux and unsure what software exists... Still have the cameras though!
I have a similar system with a Sound Blaster 32 in it ๐ต๐ถ
You can always watch them on Jellyfin - it's my favorite streaming service.
Was the same for millennials... These days, I believe each generation wants the next to be poorer to have something to feel better about.
Also, the one true 'perfect organism'
The only true survivor of Alien :)
Is that from the PlayStation 1 developers' demo disc? ๐ง๐ฅน
I always felt like these futurist UIs were a waste of resources ๐
Building out the "TS100" chassis and I'm impressed! All aluminum, suspension, geared motors, for $40-75 & as low as $30! Could use some gaskets between the motors and chassis to minimize vibration. Some washers on the suspension mounts, and a good bit of lithium grease. Tracks are meh. #bots #maker
Saw this when i was ~10. Thinking back, I think this was the first time I saw boobs in a movie ๐
This looks absolutely stupid lol
That C64 looks off to me - case is a bit too grey, buttons a big too dark. Is that how they actually looked, look after retrobriting, or some derivative EU market coloring?
Revisiting my #3dprinted Mi-8MT "Hip" helo ๐ to reimagine its brains - its 2025, maybe a #Raspberrypi Pico and and NRF24L01? ๐ง #diy #maker
Now the Xenomorphs are the 'good guys'... why do young people have to ruin everything? ๐
Wow time flies...
My store-bought bird house blew away, so i present my #DIY #jurassicpark bird house! Can't wait to see a little dinosaur ๐ฆ emerge from the gates ๐ #maker
youtu.be/sZkB11pO9R8?... The very technical internal workings of the feline ๐ผ #cats
I have to admit it's crude, but nonetheless impressive. Google #veo just took my #3dprinted rocket to new heights. Tempting for indies on shoestring budgets. #filmmaking
Good vibes ๐
Ever load a C64 program? Hassle is literally part of the experience ๐
Sigh... You can get a legit 1980s C64 on eBay for ~$200
Didn't watch, but please tell me the plan is not to release an RGB C64... Let the brand rest in peace.
18 wonderful years! You did well providing for this beautiful creature. I'm so sorry that this time is at hand, but you did well for her. Love is energy, and your love for her will fly the cosmos eternally. God speed Newton ๐ฅนโค๏ธโ๐ฉน
Being a YouTuber seems exhausting ๐
Added to my que - just today I was thinking "I should have learned FreeCAD instead of Blender" ๐
I got their Commodore 64 inspired keyboard... pleasantly surprised by the typing feel. Is quite nice! If only the real thing typed so smooth. โจ๏ธ
Penned a new blog post - "Game Over, Man!: Nostalgic Bug Hunts, Gaming, and Retro-tech" - on the influence of Alien(s) on video games and retro-tech. retrogameplayer.com/blog/aliens.... #retrogaming #vintagecomputing #aliens @alientheory.bsky.social
xAI allowed it because it's founders are obviously fascists ๐
