Trying to read the word "raucous" out loud for the first time. I came up with something like "raw-shus".

Wait, what? The Blue looks way more like a bat to me. Don't really see anything in the red.

Sounds like something an insurrectionist ~~would~~ did say.

Fixed that for you.

How many "serious consequences" are we up to now?

I actually debated editing that out of the comment several times, but I ultimately decided to leave it as-is.

Can't say this is entirely what I expected from 2024, but I will say it is completely on-brand.

They're both DE-9 connectors, but the C64 joystick port is not serial. Each direction on the stick and the fire button are connected to one of the pins on the connector, and a when direction (or the fire button) is pressed that pin has a voltage applied. So effectively it's a parallel connection.

In a serial connection one of the pins is "send" pin and another is "receive". The device then sends data as a bitstream over those two pins.
