Ari [APz] SovijärviI recently posted a video of Stern's painted light bulbs and mentioned the bulb condoms Williams used. Naturally I was asked to show the condoms!So here's the difference. Williams put these silicone filters over theirs to change the color. While I'm pretty hardcore Williams fan, I somehow always liked how the painted incandescent bulbs look like.<a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pinball</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/retrotech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrotech</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/arcade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arcade</a>

Texan_ReverendI finally assembled a racking setup that allowed me to get all the CRT TVs organized - except for the two in the house for active use.All of them are rescues, and many still need more thorough testing or calibration, but they're all shelved and accessible now.One day, I'm hoping to do an interesting combined display with it, like Matrix-style raining text or something kinda spooky for Halloween trick-or-treaters.<a href="https://kind.social/tags/CRTTV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CRTTV</a> <a href="https://kind.social/tags/CRTGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CRTGaming</a> <a href="https://kind.social/tags/RetroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroGaming</a> <a href="https://kind.social/tags/RetroTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroTech</a> <a href="https://kind.social/tags/Retro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Retro</a>

Judeau (EatTheRich)🧵3/10 It was already going to take some luck to get great compatibility with a random <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Keyboard</a> but I also had another goal; the <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Bluetooth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bluetooth</a> keyboard needed to run under the HID profile so no driver installation would be necessary.The dream is to get a new keyboard, connect over Bluetooth and just start typing!I began researching and securing a variety of keyboards to try & focused my testing on persistent <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsMobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsMobile</a> 5.0+ devices<a href="https://mas.to/tags/PocketPC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PocketPC</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Palm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palm</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/PDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PDA</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/WindowsCE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsCE</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/RetroTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroTech</a>

Judeau (EatTheRich)🧵2/10 Unfortunately after talking with people & reading up on the <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Bluetooth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bluetooth</a> protocol I learned that Bluetooth Classic (1, 2, & 3) is not compatible with the current Bluetooth LE (4, 5, etc.).
