I strongly disagree with Charlie Kirk, but doctors pronounce him dead, not the media or Wikipedia. Edit: it's official, he's dead (it wasn't confirmed when I originally posted this). Condolences to his wife and small kids.

No, pointing out someone being odious does not equate to saying they deserve it. This incident additionally is darkly ironic because of his thoughts on gun violence: https://www.newsweek.com/charlie-kirk-says-gun-deaths-wort

Another suggestion is Anders Nielsen's channel - his video on a single breadboard 6502 computer (really a 6507) with a RIOT is really good: https://youtu.be/s3t2QMukBRs

I cannot recommend enough Ben Eater's 6502 computer build on YouTube[1] if you want to play with a 6502 computer from the ground up. It is meant to be accessible to the ambitious amateur. It is roughly Apple 1 compatible, and he has
