@jimblimey.com (If your DNS host allows you to set TXT records, you can add index entries, it’s all decentralised).
@jimblimey.com That was me! Hope the description is okay, I can update it if you like.
@breakintoprogram.co.uk That also explains why it appears to be running +3 BASIC!
@onlyretrofans.com Don’t believe what Big Multimeter tells you, you already have all the tools you need. 😛
👅⚡️🔋
@fuzzweed.co.uk waamp wamp 🎺
@jimblimey.com If you haven’t already, check out the Spectranet Index module. Makes it a breeze to explore other TNFS sites:

@mattround.com Fa la la la la, la la la la!
@ambientcoder.com Thanks for checking, yeah I see that 429 error too. (When I look at the feed directly on my desktop browser it seems fine tho!) I’ll try adding it to Feedbin again later – I think you’re right, the hashnode servers must be getting hammered with all this Speccy traffic at the moment 😆
@ambientcoder.com Nice one, thanks for sharing! The Venn diagram of people who like reading blogs about programming on the Spectrum might just be a circle with me in it (surely not!) but I appreciate it. 😁
(Looks like there’s a problem with the RSS feed though? Feedbin won’t accept it.)
@kevedwardsretro.bsky.social Retroleum is good if you just need a small amount. I usually add it to my order when I need a few bits:
@fuzzweed.co.uk Haha I know. That’s why it’s so annoying!
@fuzzweed.co.uk Once your new legislation is passed will you see about making Heinz Beans cans stackable because it’s REALLY annoying that they aren’t.
@wretchedmorgan.bsky.social I thought it look familiar, Big Clive declared it a death trap recently too.
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Anyway, the admins have reset the counters. If you like you are welcome to sling a pity-vote my way! Someone screengrabbed it before the purge I had accumulated 6 votes (the front runner was on 12,202!).
But more importantly: please let me know if you check SSX out and let me know what you think!
@flatduckrecords.co.uk I have yet to cast my vote in the contest so I can’t see the totals, but the word on the street is that the (unfortunately usual) shenanigans are afoot and bots have been deployed to either favour (or deliberately disqualify!) one of the other entrants!
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Quick update to 3.5.0. The ROM (actually EEPROM) is rewritable of course but I had a spare anyway so I used that (just in case!)
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Then again maybe I upset the monitor (CTM644) by running it with nothing drawing the 12v. I’m not sure!
@breakintoprogram.co.uk I’ve done the sinful thing of shuffling my CPC drive into a Speccy +3, and putting a Gotek in its place (I don’t think anything else in the 6128 needs 12v so that can be left disconnected?)
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Have you tried holding the disk still and rotating the whole house?? Maybe it’s wired backwards 😉
@fuzzweed.co.uk So that’s earth fire air and water, we just need to harness one more (the most powerful one of all; HDMI over the Power of Friendship) for the full Captain Planet set!
@fuzzweed.co.uk While you’ve got them on the hook, I need fork ‘andles and have they got any Oh’s?
