By the way. I have whole home solar power also, but I am forbidden 🚫 from using them or figuring out any way to power them off grid with my portable solar generator because @SCE can't handle flow back BUT I must be connected to them to use solar at all. It maddening and archaic
Replying to @SCE
@SCE @CAgovernor there HAS to be a better way to prevent fires during a red flag than shutting off our power for three days. Its insane and feels like the 1800s rather than the 2020s. Our area has ALL UNDERGROUND wires and we have had A PSPS since yesterday at 11am until Sunday

Did you know that basis of the vehicle system in the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) was actually written on an #AtariST and GFA Basic, and later ported to C for use in the PC game. Another cool piece of Atari ST development history. patkerr.co.uk/2d-vehicles/

I've added YM music to #Dune2 (OpenDUNE) for #AtariST, and in-game sound effects for regular STs, so you no longer have to play in silence. Let me know what you think!
