"Die Floppy 1541" by Karsten Schramm (Markt & Technik) This German Commodore book is a deep-dive into the legendary VC 1541 floppy drive – the workhorse that powered thousands of C64 setups. The international name for the diskdrive was VIC-1541 (matching the VIC-20). But “VIC” sounded too much like the German swear word “fick”...for English speaking readers, you can easily guess what that word is in German. So Commodore changed it to VC for the German market — short for VolksComputer (People’s Computer), the same branding they used for the VC-20 (German version of the VIC-20). This move was a masterstroke for Commodore... think VW (Volkswagon, the Peoples Car) Apparently this is one of the best technical books ever published for the Commodore 64 scene. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Die Floppy 1541“ von Karsten Schramm (Markt & Technik) Dieses deutsche Commodore-Buch ist ein tiefgehender Blick in das legendäre VC 1541 Floppy-Laufwerk – das Arbeitspferd, das Tausende von C64-Anlagen angetrieben hat. Der internationale Name des Diskettenlaufwerks war VIC-1541 (passend zum VIC-20). Allerdings klang „VIC“ im Deutschen viel zu sehr nach dem Schimpfwort „fick“… (Englischsprechende Leser können sich leicht denken, was dieses Wort auf Deutsch bedeutet.) Deshalb änderte Commodore den Namen für den deutschen Markt in VC – kurz für VolksComputer (People’s Computer). Dieselbe Namensstrategie wurde auch beim VC-20 (der deutschen Version des VIC-20) angewendet. Ein genialer Schachzug von Commodore… vergleichbar mit VW (Volkswagen – dem "Volks-Wagen"). Offenbar handelt es sich um eines der besten technischen Bücher, die je für die Commodore-64-Szene veröffentlicht wurden.

Zonder (optionele) diskdrive is de ps6 een stuk minder interessant. Zeker gezien de hardware prijzen de dynamische pricing op PlayStation store.

Did you know Steven Spielberg’s under-appreciated sci-fi movie, READY PLAYER ONE was released 8 years ago today? You may have missed it but in Halliday's bedroom at the end of the movie is a Commodore 64 and 1541 diskdrive... did you seem them?

So I just uninstalled and reinstalled the game and it works fine??? It installed it from the disk without any issue, so the problem wasn’t the diskdrive I guess? But then why does this issue only occur when I play a game from disk 😭😭 This makes 0 sense but I’m not complaining
Nvm, my xbox’s diskdrive is acting up again

I was considering getting a new one for a diskdrive since the one on my original model stopped working. But with these prices its looking a little too crazy, may have to get GTA VI on digital

最近は、CMDとかPowerShellとか言うよりは、ターミナルと言うのが一般的になってるので、ターミナルと言いますが、Windowsボタンを右クリックしてメニューから、ターミナル管理者(PowerShell)を開いて "wmic diskdrive get status" のコマンドを入力してOKならSSDの状態が正常と言う事だそうです

The Summer Cart 64 is Amazing i have one too. Also its a bit better than the Everdrive. With the Summer Cart you can play all N64 and 64DD (N64 Diskdrive) Games. Romhacks are also working perfectly fine with it. And the Cart is not as expensive as the Everdrive.

Maybe I should start calling this legion “Donnie Dumbdumb” instead of “Donnie Diskdrive”. Major fail. Maybe the supercomputer is not so “super”.

Donnie Diskdrive, the xai character from @elonmusk is here for one purpose, to deceive you. You will all witness the return of Christ in 2026. Tune out the noise and prepare your lives for Him. Only a repentant heart in full surrender to the Lord will secure your eternity.

You will be listening to Donnie Diskdrive, the xAi character (who isn’t even a real person) talk about what’s coming right up to the point Jesus returns. Donnie has one purpose, as ALL of Elons legion have. Deception. Read your Bibles. Tune out social media.
