I've learned about the concept of "circlejerk" just recently, but this thread is one if I've seen one.
I think I'll unfollow everyone in this thread because retrocomputing is escapist and *anti-sustainable* unless done on the actual abandoned hardware.
Also, highly irrelevant to any post-collapse model.
But instead of solving actual difficult problems this group came up with a hobby and sticks to it.
Absolutely no problem, but pretending that making new useless hardware is sustainable rather than anti-sustainable and useful rather than irrelevant is absolutely deranged at best.
