The Qweremin I invented a new instrument: The Qweremin is a qwerty theremin. Background In the summer of 2022 I built a C64-based theremin, described and explained here. The theremin, of course, is one of the oldest electronic instruments. Its main drawback—and strength—is that it's incredibly hard to master. The performer has ultimate control over volume and pitch, but it takes months of practice before you can play even a simple scale. Meanwhile, I've also developed a line of instruments f

Analogue’s 4K remake of the Nintendo 64 has been delayed again and again due to the US tariff situation. But at least you can get 8BitDo’s updated take on the N64 controller, which was announced alongside the Analogue 3D, while you wait. You can get one through Amazon in white or black for $39.99 and while it’s one of 8BitDo’s more budget-friendl
Venerable Linux distribution Debian is side-stepping the Y2K38 bug – also known as the Unix Epochalypse – by switching to 64-bit time for everything but the oldest of supported hardware, starting with the upcoming Debian 13 "Trixie" release. "[We will] use 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures to avoid the 'year 2038 problem' when the existing 32-bit signed int rolls over (potentially setting time back to 1900)," the Debian maintainers say of the move and the problem it aims to fix. The 'nothi
No other company makes the retro gaming scene more onerous than ModRetro. The company behind the ModRetro Chromatic—fronted by the CEO of military contractor Anduril, Palmer Luckey—is at it again, announcing an enticing recreation of the Nintendo 64 meant to hook up to your TV and play all your old cartridges as if it were 1996 all over again. Drooling over this still unrevealed recreation console also requires you to put aside any inhibitions over Luckey’s deep ties to the U.S. military-industr

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR ModRetro has announced pricing for its N64 FPGA console, the M64, at $199.99. This is $50 cheaper than the Analogue 3D, which ships next month. The video hints at a holiday release date, but no specs or details have been announced yet. The Nintendo 64 was one of the most interesting consoles of its time, but revisiting those classics isn’t easy. Unless you still have a microfridge-sized CRT in working order, you’re looking at spending hundreds of dolla
You'd be forgiven for thinking that every computer mouse is just like every other computer mouse. It clicks things on your screen and lets you move your cursor around. Believe it or not, there are quite a few ways companies can differentiate their mice from each other, especially when it comes to gaming. Gaming mice can range from just a few dollars to well over a hundred dollars, but you don't always get what you pay for. That's why I'm here. You might recognize Cherry as the company that's do

TL;DR Analogue announced its N64 FPGA device is finally shipping in August. Released in pre-order in October 2024, the Analogue 3D faced nearly a year of delays. Pre-orders are not subject to additional tariff charges, with Analogue eating the cost. The Analogue 3D made huge waves when it was made available for pre-order in October 2024, promising to play classic N64 cartridges in full 4K over HDMI. The $250 pre-orders quickly sold out, and after nearly a year of waiting, Analogue has announc
TL;DR With GLIBC 2.33+, you can build a shared library multiple times targeting various optimization levels, and the dynamic linker/loader will pick the highest version supported by the current CPU. For example, with the layout below, on a Ryzen 9 5900X, x86-64-v3/libfoo0.so would be loaded: In the meantime, ggml has extended its support for its own dynamic dispatch to arm64 and ppc64el , the lack of which originally motivated this work. The Debian package will soon switch to this. However, an
The Commodore 64 deserves to have a happy ending it never got in life. You’ve likely seen at least one of those rounded beige rectangles sitting prone and forlorn in some office or forgotten attic. For those who loved their age-old home computer, the big blocky keyboard is back, and for $300 you can get what may be the most accurate recreation of the classic computer, no software emulation required. At least, it will be when the company manages to finalize the operating system and produce all th
Honouring the past. Innovating the future. Without the distractions that stole it. Commodore has returned from a parallel timeline where tech stayed optimistic, inviting, and human. Where it served us, not enslaved us. We’re here to bring that feeling back - retro • futurism, transparent tech, digital detox, real innovation. Our first step is your first way out.

About Snow emulates classic (Motorola 680x0-based) Macintosh computers. It features a graphical user interface to operate the emulated machine and provides extensive debugging capabilities. The aim of this project is to emulate the Macintosh on a hardware-level as much as possible, as opposed to emulators that patch the ROM or intercept system calls. It currently emulates the Macintosh 128K, Macintosh 512K, Macintosh Plus, Macintosh SE, Macintosh Classic and Macintosh II. The emulator is writ
Thanks to Sailor of Triad, a rare prototype of Alien 3 for the Commodore 64 has just been discovered recently. This was a demo that was seemingly produced for producer Joe Bonar to take a look at back in the day to see progress with the project. It is possible that it could have been also passed onto magazines for screenshots – which makes it a shame that it wasn’t included as a demo on the likes of Commodore Force or Format at the time.

The big picture: Emulating the Nintendo 64 has always been a contentious topic. The release of UltraHLE was a landmark moment, offering a way to run commercial N64 games at playable frame rates on Windows 9x when the console was barely three years old. Today, the situation has improved dramatically, with more accurate emulation options and alternative ways to faithfully recreate Nintendo's gameplay magic on the PC. The Harbour Masters collective has once again achieved the impossible. The team
