#Workboy
Turn your GameBoy into a Workboy! Tucked away in May 1992's Nintendo Power is a feature on the then-set-to-be-released-but-never-was keyboard and productivity software package.

Thought lost forever, a functioning Workboy surfaced in 2020.

Hatred of AI now reaching the level of cultural consensus that becomes attractive to advertisers

It's always so crazy whenever I see posts about the WorkBoy and it has my pictures in it (inevitably uncredited and in this case deep fried to hell) and I'm like... "hold on... that's my desk..?" Very weird thing to experience.

Man, I wish I had this to whip out in the playground back in the day. Am I free for a LAN party on the weekend? Let me just check with the old workboy

I was the one who tracked down the WorkBoy and got it working but I still get YouTube know-it-alls sending me crap like this all the time. Oh if only the producer of the WorkBoy had been blessed with the boundless knowledge of fanda6122!

The legendary #Workboy found a new home!

I ported the ROM to work on the #MegaDuck laptop (a #GameBoy clone). Not the hardware we wanted, but...it's hardware that exists! Keyboard, Real Time Clock and all.

quoting this to say: if you want to see this thing in action, check out this video @liamrobertson.bsky.social of DYKG did where he tracked down a prototype unit from its original creator and, using a ROM found in the 2020 nintendo gigaleak, managed to get it working www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZcr...

This was an affront to God. A warning from the distant past that was too early for anyone to heed.

writing my next novel on the workboy. hoping nothing happens to cause it to lose power and i can eventually print the whole thing out on receipt paper & submit it to my editor who will kill me.
