Hi there! I have two PR-100s and an MKS-100 that all use the same QD drive mech. I have the exact same issue regarding "LOAD ERR" after replacing the belts. However, if I do a Save, then Load, it works fine! So it is able to read it's own disks, but not factory disks. I bought the 2nd PR-100 as an example unit for reference, but I can't yet see what is "aligned" about the untouched unit vs. the belt-replaced unit. I am in the process of gradually incrementing the rotation of the spindle (that rotates the disk), with respect to the flywheel. Some angle should work, right? If I discover anything, I'll let you know.

Next to the Half Life series, Stalker was amazing. The first one with somewhat intelligent opponent who tried to ambush you.

I have a lot of stress in my life ATM. I find your rambles a welcome escape. Also interesting. Keep it up

I have some Atari games in boxes of that size.

Diablo 1 + Hellfire was the last game that I skipped sleep for. It was 1997, I was in my first job and quite busy, but Diablo 1 had that really simple but effective, one more good item, one more level hook. I actually disliked Diablo 2 when it came out, it felt convoluted in comparison. And the savepoint system meant I could not play it is small chunks at a time, like half an hour after i came from work and got tired.

The S.T.A.L.K.E.R games of old are on sale on my favourite platform GOG and now I apparently own them after dishing out 7ish pounds! I thought I should research the old before diving into the new :)

Literally freezing here too, and first snow of the year the other day.

Really glad you're shouting out Iain's channel, he really is uploading a lot of interesting stuff. Thumb Bandits was the spiritual successor to Bits!

Hello, there Ress, thanks for all the rambling. I'm not sure if I already mentioned it, but are you aware of the 44MB 30pin FPM SIMM Kickstart by Bartlomiej Dziegiel, it's already fully backed and the price don't seem bad, still 10 days to go just in case you need some 4MB SIMMs.

Bleem! What Sony really expect of me that I purchased a Playstation just to play Grand Turismo? I ordered mine by mail and received just a jewel box. I don't remember it was a bad experience playing on my machine, but I can't remember if I had already upgraded to the Slot-A Athlon or still had the Pentium II. 😅

Because I will certainly have forgotten by then, I’ll ask it now: where’s the ramble next week!?

when a heatpump(basically a reverse airconditioner) operates near or below freezing temperatures it needs to defrost regularly to be able to continue extracting heat from from the outside air. Technology Connections has very good videos about heatpumps and many other things.

PC Master Race!

Two minutes to.....miiiiiiiiidnight,

Oh god I need this, I have several 1000 floppy disks to look after. Why do I only see this now?

More games to spend my money on, just what I was looking for... 🤣 good ramble

Interested in that Atari 7800 USB-C project. I have one but no PSU and I don't even know whether its working.

Ta for cluing me up on the Moustachio fundraiser, that's going on my Xmas list straight away!

Oh no, not censoring people you disagree with on twitter is bad. /s

Hadn't noticed the delay myself but an interesting insight nonetheless. Glad you enjoy making the rambles, i enjoy listening to them!

Cool! I enjoyed Amstrad Addict or "Amstrad Action in Witness Protection" as I call it. The Atari Addict magazine looks like something I will be grabbing too. I hope that they will continue to offer these special additions every now and then 🙂

🤘

Just pre-ordered Atari Addict 🙂 Check out the "resources" pages of GameGuide Jaguar (book) for a familiar TH-cam channel...

Twitter isn't declining: that is liberal propaganda. Don't be fooled. You won't find any better on Bluesky.

The Power of the Sun! Moustachio Man supported too!

GoG every time :)

The Sega CD SMB port name I'm pretty sure is also a reference to an old parody fan game called Supra Mayro Bross and its sequel Supra Mayro Kratt. Both are classics imo.

Great video. I love your style man. Keep rocking.

Don’t forget some games like lotus and populous allowed multiplayer with the right cable, so you could have an ST race against an Amiga in a sense.

"There is a honking-great PC in the way"...ironically named "Tiny".

Excluding the time I took to co.e here and dump in the comments, one of the fastest Do not recommend channels ever.

Came to comment on the thumbnail. Looks like a very annoyed and annoying arrogant donkey. Paused immediately, but not before "hello" came through and the accent confirmed my suspicions.

Eek the $3 payment for the Super Sega makes sense now if it was some kind of pre-auth payment thing before they take the full amount, feel bad for those folks.

Interesting yes - but I've never noticed the offset 😂 ...

OMG, I don't know much about Taki Udon but I love the guy! He's taking no sh*t!!!! Hopefully I can get my hands on a MiSTER Pi next go-round.

I could quit my job if I start a crowd funding campaign that's almost too good to be true...

I didn't notice the problem because your rambles are a podcast to me. I listen it while working on my construction site and I check the screen rarely.

A bunch of burner accounts have been trying to tie the Mister Pi to Retroid, using doxxing and seemingly falsified documents. Mods have been banning/removing the stuff so its hard to trace. Pure guesswork who the “competitor” Taki is talking about because the accounts don’t make it obvious.

Enjoy! I wish I could have made it to see you and the Big Red Arrow group 🙂

13:57 99.00 - 94.99 = 4.01 (:

Excitement!

iPod Game Emulator coming Soon Hello Retroarch Core LOL

I was briefly worried there that one of the Windows 7 party pack items was a themed version of Twister. Also, with the theming of Windows 7, I always got some kind of gardening product catalogue vibe, probably due to the extensive use of green, leading me to expect to see lawn furniture and mowers at any moment.

Interesting behind the scenes Ramble :) I will be honest I have not noticed the lag/lip-sync issue, and normally "watch" your rambles on TH-cam, but as they are podcast style I will be honest they are normally playing on tab in the background until I hear you say you are showing something so I would not notice

Audio is in sync now 😃

“Little me” “big me“ 😂👍
