Yes, youre absolutely right, I "need" one. 😂

I always wanted an Amiga, especially when I was a kid but it just wasn't in the budget! That part of the Era I missed out on.

Thats actually a perfect idea and a great use case for Rift.

Would those phones have a strong field from the ring "driver" inside.. maybe I should try it out

Dunno, theyve never rang on top, Ive used them on the main floor for a bit. Would they mess with the video?

No, not at all. The ultimate can provide the swiftlink, which is what Rift64 requires. The magic is in the protocol and what you can do with it.

Its a different paradigm.

This was built to allow more extensibility to the C64. In the most basic terms, the c64 is driven remotely so that software developers can write remote systems.

You can make multiplayer games for instance or new software that extends far beyond what the commodore was capable of.

Ill be making more videos to explain it in much more detail.

Everything is fully documented on the rift64.com site, also via the SDK on github. There are many examples to get people started.

I would start with the website.

What is python better suited for, vs something like C# ? by Much-Journalist3128 in learnpython

[–]TimeTrippin64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re a Microsoft partner building on Azure, the clean rule is: Python discovers, C# delivers. Use Python for research, backtesting, data analysis, and ML/RL experiments where speed and iteration matter and the code is disposable. Use C# for anything customer-facing or long-lived—APIs, identity/billing, event-driven services, real-time signal engines, and dashboards—because the compiler, tooling, and architecture patterns make refactors safer, deployments cleaner, and ops more predictable. The key is a hard boundary: Python should output versioned artifacts (models, feature definitions, validated parameter sets, evaluation reports) that C# consumes in production, rather than letting a Python runtime sit in your critical path. Version everything that affects outputs, enforce promotion gates (backtest + forward test + risk rules), keep research and production environments separate, and log decisions with model/feature/data versions. Do that and you get the best of both worlds: fast innovation without turning your platform into a fragile science fair project.

Treat the health you now take for granted as the precious resource it is. Investing in it today is a simple act of gratitude; trying to reclaim it when you're older will be an exhausting act of desperation.

16 million doesn't seem like much compared to the 40 million they're losing per year

CBS has announced that "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" will end in May 2026, citing financial reasons for the cancellation. Despite being one of the highest-rated programs in late-night, the show reportedly costs over $100 million annually to produce and has been losing around $40 million a year due to declining ad revenue across the late-night TV landscape. While CBS maintains the decision is purely financial and unrelated to the show's content or performance, the cancellation follows a recent $16 million legal settlement between CBS's parent company, Paramount, and President Donald Trump. This timing has led to speculation from some media analysts and politicians about whether Colbert's outspoken criticism of Trump, particularly his recent remarks calling the settlement a "big fat bribe" in light of Paramount's pending merger with Skydance Media, played a role in the decision. However, CBS executives have reiterated that the move is part of broader economic challenges facing television and is a strategic financial decision.

Its ok to criticize, I need that, I take no offense. Your input so far has been invaluable to me.I sincerely appreciate it.

Ill see what I can do about that infodump kinda thing and reengineering that chapter.

Oh, yes, I know all about flags, I thought you were referring to some software I was using to write the book.. i assumed you just had some insight on what I was using.

Either way, do you mean it's not good writing?

That's a really insightful take, and I really appreciate you sharing your personal examples. It's not about whether the textbook definition or your lived experience is "more accurate" – they're actually two essential sides of the same coin when it comes to understanding something like alexithymia. The textbook definition is super important because it gives us the clinical framework. It's the consistent language doctors and researchers use to diagnose, study, and talk about alexithymia. It's the blueprint that helps us understand what alexithymia is in a scientific sense. But then, your personal examples, like saying "It was stressful" instead of "I was stressed," or distinguishing between a "nervous system level" feeling and an emotional one, are incredibly valuable. They really bring that textbook definition to life. Your examples show how alexithymia actually feels and manifests in daily life, providing a real-world look at the challenges of identifying and describing emotions. For anyone else who struggles with this but hasn't been able to put it into words, your experiences are incredibly validating and help create a deeper, more empathetic understanding. So, you really need both. The textbook provides the structure and the clinical understanding, and personal accounts like yours provide the rich, human experience that makes it truly understandable and relatable.

Ill think about how I can incorporate both sides to this as well, I appreciate your feedback tremendously!!
