The Retro Hardware Discord is BACK
Sadly we were unable to recover the original, so a new instance has been spun up and is now available to all.
(This time with enforced MFA for admins)

If any of you are members of the Retro Hardware Discord and are wondering where it has disappeared to; unfortunately one of the moderators has been targeted by hackers and the discord has unfortunately been deleted.
We (mods) are working on a plan to re-establish the Discord as quickly as we can, once we are sure all security vulnerabilities are closed.

My next video has been held up by a minor disagreement with the intended sponsor, resolved tonight by walking away from the sponsorship because I wasn't happy with the terms imposed (which is fine, it happens, and this is business).
The good news is we should be on target for a weekend release either without sponsorship or with a different partner.
Here's a sneak peak at what's in store. Any gueses?
