+jedimatt42 Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 Today at 3pm US Pacific, 6pm US Eastern, other times in other time zones, because humans have an unreciprocated dependent relationship with the star in the center of our solar system. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+dhe Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 At our last zoomer, one of the participants was sharing their screen. There was noticeable 'tears' in the Parsec demo screen. It looked like the video got behind, and some process said the heck with it and synced to where the video should be. I was curious how that would look on my video. 99/4a standard NTSC - going in to an LCD monitor via RCA cables. I do not get any tearing. But, standing back and looking at the whole screen, rather than focusing on any one thing - and especially at the ground - you can tell, it's not scrolling pixel by pixel, but it looks to be scrolling at a steady three to six pixels at a time.

+dhe Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 This Sunday's event was very enlightening. Much discussion about TI's unreleased products, and even some cards that weren't meant to be products. Other discussions where on MICE in the TI world, it started with the Mechatronics mouse that @arcadeshopper managed to wear out from use! Later Mike Maksimik released the Asgard Mouse (serial) and Myarc released a mouse (using the 9938) to go with MyArt. Mike also created MIDIMaster to hook up synthesizers. This led to talk of early sound cards (PC) being sold to gamers for not only sound, but to hook up things like joysticks. Related to that, I've been reading up on the Atari ST line, which includes MIDI built in. In addition to it's original purpose, people used them to create small networks for co-op games. They were also used by Sierra in games like Kings Quest. So, if it found a MT-32 hooked to the system, at certain parts / events you MT-32 would start playing music. We have MIDIMaster, now all we need is a game to take advantage of it! 😃 We also have the SID-Blaster that I don't think any game is taking advantage of. These ramblings are kind of a new thing, if any part makes someone anxious, please PM me and I'll work out a fix. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 As my 2022 PDF is only valid for the rest of 2022 ( go figure ), I have provided a more dynamic solution. Changed post #1 to move the details onto my page at: TI-99/4A Zoom Pandemic Club | Jedimatt42 This page features a visual calendar, that should respect your individual browser timezones.

+jedimatt42 Posted January 21, 2023 Author Share Posted January 21, 2023 The pandemic may be over from many peoples perspective, but the weekly Zoom calls continue... Today at 11am Pacific. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 This Sunday at 3pm Pacific, 6pm Eastern, you can view in your own timezone here: https://jedimatt42.com/4a/zoom I'd be appreciative if anyone can corroborate that it shows the time in the calendar at the bottom of the page in your browser's local time. (Anyone but those of us already in Pacific time.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had done some browser header hacking to pretend to be in eastern and thought that worked, but maybe that header isn't normally set by a browser... I'll try again. Trying to be inclusive.

The comment at the bottom of the calendar says, “Events shown in time zone: Pacific Time - Los Angeles”. If I click on the lower, right “+Google Calendar” with the subsequent opening of Google Calendar, Google Calendar, indeed, does show the times in my time zone (Eastern). It does not tell me what time zone it is displaying, but the times are correct for me. ...lee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted January 28, 2023 Author Share Posted January 28, 2023 I think it is doing the best it can in the embedded link, based on the viewer's privacy settings. It seems to only show that "Events shown in .... " bit when it has to choose a default in the absence of a HTTP header defining the time zone. Anyway, thanks for letting me know. It is better than I feared, but not as slick as I had hoped. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appeelicious Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I'm cursed to work the last 8 of these in a row. Does anyone record the zoom to watch later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted February 19, 2023 Author Share Posted February 19, 2023 I tried to record in the beginning, but people's children end up in the background and other privacy concerns. It is far too informal, and not always on topic, not really content appropriate for archival. I missed it this weekend too. Sometimes you just have to skip the FOMO, and go for JOMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they ain't exactly run like the Faire, are they? Stream of thought is not so terrible compared to corporate agenda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
