Jennifer<p>I don't subscribe to very many streaming services. Right now it's just Apple (Severance!!) and Acorn. There are a lot of great police murder mysteries on Acorn I really like. Currently watching the extensive library of Midsomer Murders with my husband. In addition I recently finished The Gone set in New Zealand, I really liked it (where is season 2??). Currently watching A Remarkable Place to Die set in Australia. I'd love recommendations for other good shows on Acorn. <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Acorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Acorn</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/TV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TV</span></a> <a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/Mysteries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mysteries</span></a></p>

@BasementDweller3000 I also got Windows 3.1 running on the 486 PC card in my #acorn #riscpc this week. I wondered whether anyone else was installing 3.1 in this day and age, and the answer is “yes” apparently! #retrocomputing
Desperately seeking suggestions for the best Solitaire or Mahjongg games on all retro systems. Preferably with screenshots.
Anyone have any leads on a retailer of acorn flour in Canada? Like, we have so many oak trees, and I know it was a traditional ingredient for people here. It seems kinda bonkers that the only non-American retailer that I can find is Turkish.

Just found out about a 2009 TV film on retro computing called "Micro Men". It's a sort of comedy-drama about UK computer manufacturers in the 1980s, done on a tiny budget by mixing in archive footage. It works really well!

There's also a video of some of the real people depicted watching it and commenting on the authenticity:
Fixed the RISC PC power supply. Needed a new Schottky diode, and I replaced the optoisolator for good measure. Booted up fine after a CMOS reset. #acorn #retrocomputing #riscpc
Extending one's retro computer collection is not planable at all as some rare hardware only turns up for sale once or twice a year. I was lucky to get my hands on my first Acorn machine - an extended A3000 - and spent some time learning about it as it is so different to all my other stuff. I started off my exploration by removing battery and acid and tried to get a picture out of it - that worked after several attempts. But I have it more or less running by now I guess!
