when I say that the IMSAI 8080 PSU has "soda can sized caps", I'm not joking

I'll give the revived Commodore brand one thing, at least they're true to the original company by making really questionable business decisions :)

Goofy chillin with the IMSAI 8080
got diagnosed with unix because i told my therapist that daemons are telling me what to do
“But mooooooom! It doesn’t work that way! It doesn’t pause!!”
if you like my art and can afford to throw me a few bucks,
i'm sure the spiky collar will convince everyone

I just personally program for the fun of it and i do not need LLMs involved in the process. Do not tell me what it is practical or cool for, i do not care :)

if this only applies to github use i can also just stop using that since git sucks anyway :)

@Rairii well, I looked, and the setting for it does not exist in my copy of vscodium at all, so I guess I'm out of date and will just not update until this is addressed :)

@Rairii I mean, I know that, but I was encouraged to use it over vscode as it was supposedly stripped of invasive stuff like this.
(and only encouraged in the first place as I was using some ancient windows-only shareware editor before that and to please please try something more modern, lol :D)

@brouhaha @fae fairly confident that one of the I/O ports was wired up for a parallel keyboard due to the character terminal card installed, but this thing came with neither the keyboard or disk drive, and I have since tried to re-wire the I/O card (I might still have pics of the original config somewhere, but like... good luck finding the right keyboard. i'll just talk to it over serial, somewhere down the line, probably)
self harm
for those that didn't know, i also post my art on telegram & i have a group attached where people post rabbits and stuff

closest I found so far is this, which ticks almost every box except for the outlet being schuko -- i'd need a passive adapter for US plug outlet, which is ok but not ideal

@brouhaha pretty sure this is all factory. It's also the PSU-C, Rev 1, the very first one they did.
I think a few months in they changed a bunch of the design, including replacing the transformer to one that can be wired for many different input voltages, though the caps were all wired from the top, exposed, so a little more dangerous :)

@equisett the downside is for anything i do want to distribute in increments I'd have to host stuff myself somewhere and can't just get people to pull code but that literally only applies to one single project of mine that nobody cares about in the first place :)
@mos_8502@studio8502.ca bold to assume anyone would ever revive the commodore brand in good faith :)
