This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!

Project #18 - Setup a RetroPie on the Mac Mini monitor downstairs
I have for a while been wanting to get into games. Normally, I am quite the nerd, only wanting to do things that have some "merit". However, as I approach retirement I want to be able to have some down time from my technical activities and woodworking. I have been looking at RetroPie and have been very interested in getting a system up and running. Since I already have an RPi4-4GB attached to the Mac Mini monitor and I already have a game controller, I thought it would be a prudent use of resources to put RetroPie on an SD card and use it there.
