DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Re: Stuff and Things.
Is the baddie a soldering iron in this remake?
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Re: Stuff and Things.
Just having a quick trawl through eBay's vintage computing section, and boy are some of the prices insane.
There are boxed games on cassette (Not sealed BTW) with prices upwards of £1000 or more, and some of the hardware on there, that I have in my collection, is going for similar or higher. I mean £800 for an A5000, £900 for an Octane. Way higher than what I paid.
I know people sometimes put up strange/high prices on eBay, and prices are not always realised, but these seem genuinely daft, good job I was sitting down when I looked.
Apparently it's all 'rare' now...

Re: Stuff and Things.
I think some people may be looking to get themselves out of debt by selling their retro stuff and think that they can hike the price and people will pay.
These are desperate times.
Of course, they won't sell because most people don't have the money any more.

Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

I think there is an aspect of that to it for sure, but it also seems to me that there is also just good old fashioned greed involved...stephen_usher wrote: 15 Dec 2023 12:18 I think some people may be looking to get themselves out of debt by selling their retro stuff and think that they can hike the price and people will pay.

Re: Stuff and Things.
Getting busy inside the Apple IIe now I've added a parallel card in slot 1:
Just leaves slot 1 for a serial card once I can get one at a reasonable price.
