👾 New Video Game Systems In 1994
A few days after the arrival of my first Analogue 3D in the Funtastic Limited Edition color of "Smoke", here's its sibling console in a stunning "Jungle" green variant. 😃
I just love all of these colors! Which one would you guys prefer?

Inside Goupil Le Fol, Half Bar, Half Cabinet of Curiosities 🍷 🕯️ 🎵🌹
If you're ever in Brussels, just a few steps from the Grand‑Place you'll find Goupil Le Fol tucked away on Rue de la Violette, half bar, half cabinet of curiosities. Old chansons on the speakers, red candles in wine bottles, and walls drowning in portraits, sheet music and odd relics, like drinking in a fever dream mix of Parisian and Brussels nostalgia.

#Listening to Sweet Candy Power

I first heard this Japanese punk band in the late 1990s, care of a friend who was obsessed with all things Japan. But BC tells me they've been a band since 1981. They still got it.
That's the band that the Proxomiton guy boosted!
Wheeeerheeeee
Gee, computing at my level was kinda cool back then.
The internet used to be a collection of homes.
Now it's a row of malls.
We traded the hobbyist era for corporate walled gardens. ICQ is dead, Skype is dead, and the open web is being strip-mined for data.
But remember: the #hashtag was born in 1980s IRC rooms, not a Silicon Valley PR firm.
The Fediverse isn't just a trend - it's a return to what made the web work in the first place.
Protocols over platforms. Always.

Pixel logos I created in the early 1990s, using Deluxe Paint ("DPaint") on an Amiga. Back then, cassette tapes, diskettes and CD(-ROM)s were still hot storage media. 😃
