After several hours of work, my photos from this years @vcfe are now online. I tried to write proper and useful descriptions and include links where it’s possible and where it makes sense. Enjoy: flickr.com/photos/stiefkind/al #VCFe24 #vcfe #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing

As usual, all pictures are CC0.

Last weekend at #VCFe I once again encountered the meme that using original power supplies for your home computers of the 80s is bad because the line voltage was raised by 10% from 220 V to 240 V since then.

So instead of 5 V, as the story goes, they now deliver 10% more and would be outside the specs. But no, that's not how voltage regulators in power supplies work. They regulate voltage. That's their one job.

Some more pictures from the first day of the #VCFe 24 in #Munich:

A #punchcard reader (and puncher).

A #Mega65 running #ManiacMansion based on IIRC the Amiga graphics and the C64 sound of the game. I by chance wore the appropriate t-shirt, albeit in the German localization.

And I'm still not sure after which related game -- Maniac Mansion or Day of The Tentacle -- the t-shirt is actually modeled after as the verbs don't match as well as I expected.
