Stock up on butt lube because we’re going to get screwed over hard.

Estimate of up to 30 million C64 were produced so I guess not enough if I managed to get every single one in the world

Keyword might be “contact paper” Clean the glass, apply clear contact paper as flat as possible, then trim the edges. Cover both sides to catch any small pieces that may try to escape.

So my collection of about 20 Commodore 64 isn’t enough? Do I need another 20? /s

I’d like to get my hand on one to cool a speedy M.2 SSD. Conventional fan doesn’t fit and a really small one that do fit, moves less air than a farting flea.

So no point in making Linux or Windows that can run 100% within GPU and leaving a very minimal CPU to handle data transfer between drives, keyboard, etc and GPU.

I’d like to see someone with a 4090 GPU running Windows and a Motorola 68000 as the CPU to handle drives.

New PCB but reusing existing cooler from original GPU? It looks like the Chinese are making the PCB smaller and moving the power connector to the side and using the standard 8 pin PCIe rather than 12vhpwr which is thick, can start fire if it’s the older version, and be an issue with clearance on top of the GPU.

Don’t forget the thick net cable.

And I hated base2 network, so fiddy to work with and can be unreliable if a terminator was removed by a prankster or if there’s a faulty network hardware somewhere. BaseT was the best of both reliable and cheap.

I still remember a trick to remember which is which: hub, switch, and router. A hub is like an intersection with only stop sign. Good for low traffic but high collision risk with high traffic. Switch is like an intersection with traffic light, better for high traffic. And router is like an intersection with police car present to enforce traffic.

I rate this 3 turds. I would have rated 4 turds had you used different colored tape that clashed with red motherboard, maybe lime green?

Spectacular and embarrassing failure usually gets -gate added. Like Deflategate, and more. Watergate started the -gate fails.
