It is the year of someone's Lord 2025, and you can still buy a brand new 5-pack of blank #Maxell #Audio #Cassette #tapes. I love that this is a thing, and hope it keeps being a thing for years/decades to come.

5/ I use brass polish to clean a lot of faceplates, mostly because I once lived in an apartment with all brass door hardware, still have the polish, and one day decided to give it a go.
I’m sure there’s a better thing to use, and someone may tell me why using it is a terrible terrible thing, but it’s doing a heck of a job getting decades of cigarette smoke off the face of this thing, even on translucent plastic.

Spring is the perfect time to clear out your pile of old electronics. Free Geek Twin Cities could take them off your hands while helping the community. #MNastodon #Minneapolis #TwinCities #RetroComputing #RetroTech #DigitalDivide https://twincitiesgeek.com/2025/04/free-geek-twin-cities-is-reducing-waste-and-bringing-tech-to-communities-in-need/
I brought this old phone from the '60s as a prop for the State of the Open Home livestream later today…
For now, it’s hanging out next to my hotel bed Honestly, I wish I could see the look on the face of the person cleaning my room today. The confusion must be priceless.
Fantastic #retrogaming event hosted at #ChicoState by the amazing Non-Profit Tech Toss.
About 20+ retro consoles were available free to play including: #atari2600 #nes #wii and more.
We desperately need these third spaces to let ourselves play, be kids again, and remind us there is still joy to be found.

If you're in #Boston and love old computers, electronics, and games, check out the MIT Swapfest flea market. First meeting this year is April 20th.
I went a few times last year and saw some wild things like Commodore 64s, Apple ][s, a NeXT cube, and tons of video games. I also saw a lot of old radio equipment and miscellaneous electronics parts.
Clearing out the store cupboard at work and found these gems! #calculator #addingmachine #magiclantern #retrotech
