Chip<p>Made a little case for the Spite Sprite (the Amiga composite/S-Video adapter I made). The notch is kind of annoying to print, but I needed the height to clear the capacitors and I needed it lower near the D-sub connector to clear the 500's case.</p><p>I'm also kind of curious - is this something anyone else would want? I have parts to build a few more (I only have crystals for NTSC, but if you have a 4.43MHz PAL colorburst crystal it does support PAL output). If you want more info or you'd like to build your own, I have more info here: <a href="https://dominionofawesome.com/vca/spite-sprite/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">dominionofawesome.com/vca/spit</span><span class="invisible">e-sprite/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://awesome.garden/tags/Amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> <a href="https://awesome.garden/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://awesome.garden/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a></p>

j5v<p>I'm wondering whether to go all-in on a silly little coding adventure: a defrag simulator. </p><p>Some people find these satisfying to watch.</p><p>I can see a way for it to start simple, but then grow subtleties.
