aight let's do this up good n' proper cause i just can't wait to see this little guy again


variable_h became a very sparkly person in 2014 :sparkles:
most of celexi's $300 easter present budget went to postmen in 2015 :retrogames:

here's other people being awesome at me

osi bean dip knows about hacky stuff 2015
funhilde is an artist and a chef, too bad about broken images 2014

things i like
- cooking things and then eating those things
- reading weird scifi books
- hockey stuff and construction stuff
- all nerds like tinkering with electronic things that are supposed to be assembled, programmed or adjusted in some way
- ridiculous shirts (size 40)
- bingeing on video games on steam, where i am called guywhodiesalot. if you like it and it's not a game about ethics in cartoon video game dating i'll probably like it too


things i don't do
- own pets
- maintain a place to put spare mattresses
- pay brokerage fees (i can pick up stuff at zip 13669 but the unboxing photos will suck because no loving way am i taking an unopened box of mystery goony goodness through a border crossing). parcel services are all terrible; god's own united states postal service is fine

:canada: our border services will intercept all meat and produce, most living things, weapons and anything smokable. i hate animes already but if you try to send me creepy anime kiddie crap i'm going to get a phone call from the cops and that'll make everyone feel very unchristmaslike indeed

there may have been a non-yossed computer dropshipped to someone who has not posted itt since

so if any of you has received a suspicious package and is wondering if he should open it, the answer is probably not because nobody wants obsolete garbage

I received what I can only assume is a YOSmas gift today...

your assumption would be half-correct, in that it's the half of YOSmas that couldn't be found on this side of the border

the homespun part will arrive more tardily

FYI that long faced frog is Barnacle Jim

I wanted to build the mac pi completely but it would have taken too long to ship the parts here and adafruit didn't even have everything in stock so you get the half finished project tied together with string and bubblegum. https://learn.adafruit.com/mini-mac-pi/overview has links to the parts you need to get a fully battery powered yosmac with internal speakers.

Ctrl-Q gets you out of vMac and most games expect a 512x342 resolution and malfunction in interesting ways on a 320x240 screen.

I think you want to go have a look at http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/gp2x.cgi for the handheld but it's been sitting in a drawer for 10 years in my home because the joystick is just awful :v:

This was supposed to go in a hand written letter wasn't it

:five::five::five::five::five:

talking moose is the one thing that could make a yosmac better

this is good. very very good.

Merry Yosmas! I remembered all those cursive letters. I imagine by the time this reaches you, you'll have gotten your 'real' gift [and I did, thanks again!], but I wanted to send something small direct as well. Canadian shipping is expensive after all. So my gift to you today is AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM.
Enjoy, and get started on that wall!
