I had to reupload my video: there were some pops in the audio. I think OBS screwed up.

What a missed opportunity by Apple! It seems #macos26 can't set the wallpaper based on time of day. There are four Tahoe animated wallpapers for morning, day, evening and night, and you can't set it automatically!
There is a solution, but it is convoluted:

New video: The OneROM Versatile ROM Emulator

The old home computers like the C64, PET and VIC20 use a lot of 24 pin ROM chips. Many of those are failing and are often replaced with EPROMs and adapter boards. The OneROM is a versatile replacement for EPROMs based on the RP2350 MCU. It allows for easy reprogramming, multiple ROM images and can replace up to three ROM chips in a single system. Oh, and it's open source!
