  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?

Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

This is great! I love the SID music chip. I have over 30,000 C64 songs on my computer at home and i listen to them regularly. Things sure have changed since then, but this brings me back to a better time!

Assuming that the programmer pulled MIDI, images and lyrics off the web, just converting them and syncing them up must have taken at least an hour or two, and that's assuming that they already had all the code on hand to do a "multi-media" presentation on their 8080.

Somebody has way too much time on their hands, and for that they get my vote.

Upvote despite the fact that the cake is a lie.

how nerdy can one get.

I'm not even angry.
