Cracking scene: Crowdfunding for book “Bootblock Rebels” already sec
Just two weeks after the campaign was launched, funding for “Bootblock Rebels - The Hidden Stars of the Amiga Underground” has already been secured: The ¤22,000 required for the completion and production of Steen Jessen's treatise on the illegal Amiga scene has already been raised. Due to its success, the campaign has been expanded to include two more "stretch goals": If ¤24,000 is raised – which is already the case – the planned brief introduction to the tools and methods used by crackers and various copy protection mechanisms will be expanded to chapter length, with cracker legend "Galahad" responsible for this section. If ¤30,000 is raised, a book-specific "cracktro" will be created and published. (cg)

Podcast: The Retro Hour special on game controllers
The new episode 516 of the podcast "The Retro Hour" is all about video game controllers - specifically, the big hits and flops in controller history. The hosts discuss which gamepads, joysticks and input devices have proven particularly successful over the years and which ones have caused frustration or laughter among the audience. The guest is Christian Wenk, who wrote the book "Trigger Happy" (published by Bitmap Books). (nba)

Video: Improved internet access via BlueSCSI
At the end of January, we reported on the new version 1.4 of Robert Smith's "DaynaPORT" driver, which uses the WLAN emulation available in the SD-based SCSI "drives" ZuluSCSI and BlueSCSI to connect any Amiga with a SCSI host to the network. In his video on the subject, he explains the changes and provides tips. (dr)

TPUG Magazine: Remaining copies of issue 26
In September last year, we reported that the club magazine of the Toronto PET User Group (TPUG), founded in 1979, was to be published in print for the first time in many years. After this was achieved, but all copies were sold out, Dr. Myles L. Skinner, editor-in-chief of the magazine, informed us that a small number of printed copies were available again, partly due to returns from events.

For Amiga enthusiasts, this issue includes the article "Amiga Memories," an "Amiga Family Mini-Poster," and "Amiga Game Picks," a selection of Amiga games.
There are plans to return with a new issue (No. 27) for this year's World of Commodore in December. (dr)
